[As used In agility] -v. 1) to perform the course carefully and flawlessly, always at least 20 seconds over time OR to perform the course very silly, running fast, still being at least 20 seconds over time 2) to stop at the top of the A-frame for a good look about 3) to perform the weaves very, very, very, very slowly ("Remember, folks, this replay of the weaves is not in slow motion" - tv agility announcer) Synonyms: White Lightning, Caper-duffer-doo We have said goodbye to Caper after 11 years of cuddliness, kisses to the ears, and lots of spectacular Frisbee and ball playing - people walking by on the street would stop and watch her fly to catch the Frisbee. She taught us what it means to own a Border Collie (and we still went back for more). Up to the very end, even when she was in pain, and her cancerous leg did not let her run and jump, she would still play ball and Frisbee. We will miss her devotion, her obsession, her stoicism, and her stubbornness. She truly lived up to her name. Goodbye, Caper. You're a good dog.
Caper is owned and loved by George, Carolyn, Bazil & Violet. |
