    Murphy has had a walk with dog walker and lots of visits today, and Maisie is being particularly playful. He is clearly tired and his eyes are really red and his bottom eyelids are noticeably droopy. So should I take him to agility anyway or not? Tia x

    If it is this evening, then I wouldn't. But if tomorrow, then I would see how he was and then make a decision; so tomorrow I probably would!

    Yea it is tonight, and it's 9-10pm so really late. We just took Maisie for a walk/carry round the block to give him 20 mins on his own. He seems ok, but I can tell he's tired. Is it mean to take him? Or shall I take him and see how he is?

    Not necessarily mean but if his heart isn't in it as he is tired, he won't really enjoy it. Or he will push himself and then feel even more tired! Take him and see how he is, you can always come home early or just let him sit and watch.

    Yea I suspect he will just knacker himself out even more! I will go and see how he is, at least then if he clearly is too tired we can watch so I won't fall behind. Thanks :)
