Age, however, couldn't possibly have prepared him for his experience with canine agility-the athletic cousin to best-of-breed shows. Rodi, an epicure and urban intellectual, picks up agility with aspirations for blue ribbons. His dreams of glory quickly fade when faced with the competition: hearty Midwestern handlers and their ferociously fit pups, who annihilate scrawny, scruffy, Dusty, Rodi's rescue dog and would-be champ, in the ring. The duo is utterly lost in the agility circles, but as in the best human\/pet stories, they forge an everlasting bond to carry them through. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Combining the wit of Christopher Guest's \u003ci\u003eBest in Show\u003c\/i\u003e and the charm of \u003ci\u003eMarley \u0026amp; Me\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eDogged Pursuit\u003c\/i\u003e is an uproarious account of a neophyte's year in the dog show world that abounds in humor and warmth.","brand":"Plume","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45571290890495,"sku":"9780452296138","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780452296138_s600x595.jpg?v=1777307383","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780452296138","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
