I can jump, go through a tunnel, and weave through my mom’s legs. I’m so fast. Wanna see how fast I am? I don’t play with strange dogs because sometimes they’re mean to me, and sometimes I think I need to protect my mom. Did I mention I like agility? Do you have any treats? Can you at least pet me? Look how cute I am. You should play with me.“
