 Misha, Sammy, Lola, Blake |
 Lola is the smartest |
 Go Lola! |
 Teaching others |
 Showing the last time, you thickheads |
 Sammy is bored |
 Tug-of-war, anyone? |
 Lola is not too enthusiastic. She thinks she is too smart for this game |
 But she lets her to be talked into "just to try, maybe you'l like it" |
 Gradually she gets more actively engaged |
 Group warm up |
 Getting rough |
 Come down, this is just a practice! |
 First two contenders: typical spectacle for the press exacerbated by excessive drinking |
 Misha is warming up and showing interesting dribbling techniques |
 Sammy, the favorite, is more confident and relaxed |
 Blake is Misha's trainer |
 Blake, a former champion of winter games, next to his trophy |
 Misha used to be a tough street fighter with very poor manners |
 He had a lot of encounteres with law. One of many mug shots |
 Another mug shot |
 Grooming was number one priority |
 It was a big culture shock for Misha. He thought he looked too sissy even for a poodle. |
 This was followed by hours of training |
 And now, Tug-of-war round 1. Misha hopes that his aggressive offense tactics will break Sammy's defensee |
 Blake is watching his player |
 Tug-of-war round 2. Very solid defense by Sammy |
 Instructions during break. "Keep coming after him. He is not made of iron, just a dog as you are" |
 Tug-of-war round 3 |
 Sammy is a winner and celebrates his victory |
 After, Sammy is taking a rest to recover |
 Misha is poor looser and suddenly attacks Sammy |
 Unfair: two on one |
 All forgotten, let's hug. Misha, a former tough street fighter turns his head as he does not care much for kissing and hugging |
 Sammy and next condender Lola |
 Tug-of-war 3 ways |
 Foul play: too close contact |
 Enough, we are all tired |
 Misha at home resting |
 Albus, Blake's new aspiring young player |
 Long hours of practice, probably fruitless |
 Tug-of-war Little League: Coco |
 Tug-of-war Little League: Doc |
 Cashmere the Cat is cool and does not play tug-of-war, nor any other of these silly games |
