Tracking

through the tall grass
silently
we track
I am watching the trainer
dont lift your head
I think
watching your back
serious tail wagging
this is a job to be done

but you already know
you're a great tracker
and the best dog 
in this world
so far

head in the weeds
nose to the dirt
steady steps
yes
he's got it.
