Day 5 - The Final Day of the Hazel Run Olympics
The Final Day of Competition dawned gloomy and chill. Perfect for the activities slated.
First on the agenda was the Rolling Competition. Cole and Belle tossed a cookie to determine who competed first. Cole won the toss.
He lowered himself to the snow and slid forward as far as he could go, flipped up on his back, waved his legs, then flopped over gracefully on his side to finish out in another stretch.
Lil Belle wagged her tail in approval with the rest of the watching Pack.
"Next!" called King Ember, the judge for the event.
Lil Belle came over, rolled over onto her side from a sitting position, then rolled onto her back to wave her legs high.
She stretched out...and accidentally kicked King Ember in the chops.
"The winner is Sheriff Cole!" barked King Ember grumpily.
Cole stood for a moment in the Big Yard to receive the accolades of the Pack before moving on to his next Event, the Synchronized Chaos Final.
