May the tunnels not have too much suction,
May the course be fun and fast.
May your dog not stop to say "hello"
To the photographers that they pass.
May the table not be too slippery,
May the chute house no scary beasts.
May all the yellow parts be touched,
with one little toe, at least.
May the wind be always at your back,
May no bars fall on the ground.
May the A-Frame have no stop sign at the top,
May the judges whistle never sound.
May your dog obey all correct commands
And ignore the ones that are wrong.
May your heart be light, your feet be sure,
and the bond with your dog grow strong.
At the finish line, may great joy abound,
regardless of your score.
You have your dog, your dog has you,
and who could ask for more?
