Olympic material?

Olympic fever has hit even me.  I understand there are no dogs in the competition in London, but I think that is a shame.  Dogs can be athletes too, and certainly could excel at sports like cat chasing, plastic bag shredding, food snatching, and looking soulful.
Ok, true, this is just a picture of me having fun with my pal Pogo. Maybe I don't look like an Olympic competitor to you, dear reader(I don't have a uniform, after all),  but I do have an undeniable joie d'vivre and would be ready to compete for the honor of dogs everywhere, anytime.    just saying...............
