Hi. I’m Sage. Let’s go! I want to go. Come on! Ooh. What’s that smell? That’s interesting. Okay. Can we go now? I want to pull the sled! Will you pet me? Yeah. Scratch behind my ears. Okay. Seriously, I want to go! Let’s get moving! I’m pulling! Even though the sled is stopped, I’m pulling as hard as I can. Maybe I can break the sled free if I keep jumping and pulling. Oh, there’s another interesting smell. Okay, back to pulling. Come on! Is it time yet? I want to go. I want to go! I want to go!!!
What’s this, the sled is moving? Oh boy! Here we go. This is the best. I’m so happy. When I’m pulling a sled, my mind settles down. I am totally focused. So we’re running along and I’m pulling as hard as I can. Now I can relax and form coherent thoughts. I ponder things like how to harness alternative energy, how to end world hunger, and how to actually achieve world peace.
Sage is the best wheel dog ever. He saved me from face planting into a tree. Big kudos to Sage!!!
