Yesterday we turned another Mission Impossible into a Mission Possible. We organized our first ever Arbor-Gility event. A little over a month ago, I was asked to show my Dogtoring, R.E.A.D.ing, and agility skills by the organizer of Arbor Day in my neck of the woods. I’m pretty experienced with Arbor Day as I started handing out trees for the first time when I was only 4 months old but organizing and competing in Arbor-gility was a first for me and maybe a first in the whole wide kingdom.
Instead of me running around like crazy and doing it all by myself, I thought it would be way more fun to invite my Canine Companions for Independence (CCI) and Animal Therapy furriends. As it turned out, 26 agility dogs, 5 Dogtors, and 2 service dogs in training showed up. Isn’t that amazing?! With the Arbor-gility event, we raised lots of πͺπͺπͺΒ for a local non-profit animal rescue group.
Sky had to stay home to practice Zuluism. He will be able to join us on one of our Mission Possibles as soon as he has received all his booster vaccines.
I had fun and can’t wait till the next event,

Benji, you’re my hero. Continue to show your Dogtoring leadership so others learn. You also have an honorary Dogtorate in humanities. What a combination!

Yes! A Dogtorate in both Agility and Humanities. You’ve made people so happy and entertained them so much. Remember Ms. Zulu’s legacy. Sky’s a natural too.

You are the best, as I always say. You did the job, you relly did it, and got so much money for a good purpose, some other than treats.

You organized all that way better than many people could have, and I bet raised more money, too. You look very graceful on your jump, and your furriend Sharon has a beautiful smile.
