"In the five years that Sam and I have been doing trials, anytime it was raining and we were competing, Sam would take one or two obstacles and then head for the nearest and driest tunnel; laying down inside and laughing at the stupid humans outside. Once it took me over five minutes to get him out of his retreat! This year in Stowe, Sam ran three times in the rain, successfully completing courses without siestas in the tunnels!" — Maggie
