Drastic is back!

Drastic is a super crazy Maligator who belongs to Nicole. She is seriously whacked in the head. She has so much drive in her little Mal body I don't think her head knows what to do with it. Of course Nicole thinks she is the sweetest little thing. We just amuse her and agree along with her. Even though we all think she is a real alligator! Snap snap snap, that is what she sounds like and we all fear holding her, in fear of losing a finger or two.

A few months ago Drastic acquired a soft tissue injury. Nothing could really hold this dog down and I don't thinks its possible that she actually feels pain. The only thing that Nicole noticed was a slight limp after strenious activity. She crate rested her for a few weeks and the limp came back. So after multiple vet visits, lots of rehab and many months off. Drastic is finally making her way back into her flyball training.

Drastic sure did come back with a bang! Last night was her first night back to practice and she is as whacked out as every. The months of rehab have made her stronger and more aware of her body. Nicole only did some wall with her inorder to get her back into form for the box but damn was she on fire. Posted is a short clip of Drastic doing her wall work. We are so happy that Drastic is feeling better and can't wait to get her racing again!
