Wow, now I really had to share this one!!

As some of you may or may not know, I actively compete in dogsports, mainly Agility, sometimes with more, sometimes with less success. Today, a friend of mine sent me this video of Mr. George Richards and his Dachshund "Hummel" competing in Utility B (that's a venue of Obedience) at the Dachshund Specialty last October. Mr. Richards is a whopping 97 (!) years old  and what an I say? I'm impressed. No, stunned. To my knowledge, Dachshunds are anything but easy to train and he leads his dog through the exercises as if it wasn't a big deal at all. They may not be the fastest team, but they complete all exercises perfectly and are rewarded with a score of 193/200!!!

Mr. Richards sure attaches a new meaning to the words "Forever Young"!

Check them out yourself!
