SOCCER!
Last evening we, Sheri and I, took the dogs to a school play ground for a run. We found an operable soccer ball and never having played soccer past the second grade, I thought it would be fun to play a game with the dogs.
That would be "Missy", our over energetic border collie and spaniel mix. Must have been painful!
At first she wasn't too sure of this old guy running around kicking a big ball.
Then there was "McGee", the Chalupa dog! He could have cared less and became the game official who watched the re-runs and then made an official decision. But only when bribed with a "Cookie"
"McGee" became the official, "Official" because he had no interest in the ball other than to get out of it's way because it was bigger than he.
"Missy" began to get into it with the pregame press interviews and picture sessions.
She quickly proved to be very good at defense. She was so quick, it was so difficult to get a ball past her.
McGee quickly cried foul when she simply picked the ball up and ran with it. This was not football Missy!
Missy goes for a header.
I finally got an opening and "Score"!
She was pretty petulant about my score!
In fact, I just simply wore her out. The Chalupa dog was still looking for a cookie so they both got a treat.
I guess the old man still has it!
Tanks!
