One
of my very first agility shows found me watching a
older gentleman and this little white dog just tearing
up the agility field. Up to that point I hadn't decided
on if I wanted to do agility or not. Watching this
man run on the field with his dog and having so much
fun started to make me realize that it could be a
lot of fun.
Add to the fact that the little dog
was back talking to the gentleman and they were putting
as much as a comedy show as a agility run it just
made me determined to give it a try.
Now, several years later I spend a lot
of time with Contact Zonies and helping to run the
electronic timers at many of the shows. The same electronic
timers that this same gentleman taught me how to setup
and program.
Of course I'm talking about Carl Arndt
and his amazing Cha Cha.
And though I will continue to be a member
and officer of Contact Zonies and go to agility shows
to help and hopefully one day complete a trial, it
will not be the same without this gentleman that convinced
me to give it a go.
Thank you Carl, for everything. We'll
miss you my friend.
Respectfully, Stephen Boston. |
