"Shadow and I have been learning agility for about 2.5 years. Although our progress has been consistent, the weave poles had proven most difficult because of Shadow's long body. A long-awaited breakthrough with the poles came two weeks ago. As with all the difficult obstacles, Shadow was so pleased at having finally mastered the closed poles that he went back to them again and again, as if saying, 'Look, Mom, I can do it!'" — Christine
