I'm so, so upset. I can't handle it :(

I'm so sorry Audrey. I don't know what to say. There aren't any other places where you can run him in flyball? Maybe talk with the coaches one more time before you really decide to quit.

I know how you feel though. I have the same problem with Nala. You know how she is, she likes to play rough and has a deep, deep bark. Not many people understand that - yesterday I had some snot of a lady give me dirty looks all day at the park, because Nala wanted to play with her dog. She was fine. She just wanted to play. The lady didn't even respond to me when I told her "She's nice, she just wants to play, she won't hurt your dog." And I guess people don't understand the fact that she lives perfectly fine at home with 2 other dogs and many visitors who come in and out.

People just don't understand, thankfully others there did.

what a jerk!! I'd definately talk to the person who runs this and tell on him. hugs to you and Zeke!

[Alysser]

I just don't understand why he HIT Zeke? It sounds like he saw the problem was taken care of. People are stupid. He had NO right to hit Zeke. Don't give up just yet. I wish you luck and I'm really sorry.

Because he's a hateful excuse for a human, that's why! Audrey, I'm really sorry about all this. Are there any other dog things you can do that don't involve these people? I'm just not sure your fun is greater than the pain that these hateful people have caused. You need to move to Florida and hang out with us. If I were there, I'd give you and Zeke a big, squishy hug.

He was really pissed off at Zeke, that's why hit him. (not that it's right) He is a bully, and not a nice person. I'm waiting to hear back from the captains..

There is only 1 club here right now. There aren't any agility clubs as far as I know...and I don't know what else I could do. *sigh*

It upsets me, because Zeke is one of THE NICEST dogs I know! Kay and Val, you met him, now would you say he is a big meany? He doesn't deserve to be hit or picked up off the ground and yelled at.

[Alysser]

Well, I already knew that. Anyone who hits a dog for a reason like that is.

[Ginger's Mom]

I see you say you are waiting for the captains to call you back. Are you just going to talk to them about what they are going to do to keep you as a valued member of the club or are you also going to report the man's actions. You really should he has no right to touch your dog, especially when you are there and have him under control. That should not be allowed within the club, and the captains need to be made aware of the fact that this man is hitting, grabbing etc. other people's dogs. They must have rules about that in the club. He is the one who needs to leave, not you.

The time the guy scared Zeke, one captain said "He is just protecting his dog." Uh, from what?

This guy has been with them a long time, and is a good friend. I'm newer, and am not friends. Therefore, it's obvious who will win. I'm not a valued member, I doubt they could careless. It would be great for them if I decide not to come back. They can have their perfect club with their prefect dogs. They care WAY to much about speed and winning. I don't care if Zeke is fast, I want him to run and have fun, that's ALL I care about.It would be nice to win, but I'm not in it to win.

I asked them what they want me to do. If me and Zeke are going to be such a problem, I said I won't bother.
