The crowd cheered as Romeo raced around the track.
His master encouraged him, as he ran in the Mini Doggy Obstacle Course.
“I’m gonna finally beat, Sardines. He wins every year. But not this year.” Romeo thought.
“Sardines ain’t gonna win. I can’t stand to see him win again”
“All I gotta do is hit that last hoop at the exact moment.”

“But wait…is that a Chicken McNugget on the ground over there smelling all fine and yummy?”
“I’m gonna go eat this nugget. Ill beat Sardines next year.”
