    Oh my goodness! I'm glad that the chase seems to have been spurred by over stimulation rather than aggression! I can imagine how scared and surprised poor Missy was:( So happy though that she was able to get back in the ring and finish her weekend!

    Yes, for whatever reason, you summed it up perfectly! I must have had a case of the Mondays yesterday. And somebody introduced a new term that I found hilarious.. "flyball hangover". Yup, I probably had one of those too!

    I am just relieved that Missy didn't completely shut down on me. It shows how sensitive in nature some Shelties can be. I think on a scale from sensitive to confident, I think Missy is pretty confident, but she has her moments of weakness. I would have been heartbroken if she wouldn't/couldn't do flyball anymore. We both enjoy it so much.

    On further thought:
    When you enter an agility tournament you can sense the focus. When you enter a flyball tournament you can sense the energy.
