Stella loves her football. She loves to play the game, albeit a one sided game due to the ball being clamped in her jaws. She will drop the ball and wait until you're about to kick it before grabbing it and running off, which often results in a knock on the head. No sense, no feeling....
Today she decided to do a sliding tackle. We were in the field, which is essentially a quagmire. Very wet, soggy soil...well under the puddles it is. So, ball in place, foot approaching ball, dog hurtling full pelt towards ball....and not able to stop.
A very surprised looking dog slid 5 feet towards the ball... straight past it and into my shin.
I used a few words...it's a good job she's not a parrot!
