Today we celebrate the end of an era. Max Sprinz and his iconic Sheltie, Make, ran their final agility course together today—closing an extraordinary career as part of the Gold Medal Winning German Small Dog Team. 🏆🇩🇪 This past summer, Max shared with me that this would be Make’s last run. Tiny but fierce, Make has overcome incredible challenges in her life—including battling Leptospirosis just a few years ago. Max’s decision to retire her at just seven years old is a true act of love, choosing her long-term well-being over extra seasons of competition. 💙 I will miss seeing Make scream around agility courses, but I look forward to every visit to Germany where I know I’ll be greeted by her bouncy, cookie-stealing self. 🐾✨ Thank you, Max and Make—for the victories, the lessons, and the heart you’ve given to our sport. #MaxAndMake #AgilityWorldChampionships #AgilityLegends #ForeverChampions #CelebrateTheJourney
