STEINBACH

Sport, a border collie owned by Joni Steinbach of New Ulm, Minn., races through weave poles that are part of an agility course on July 23, 2012. The love and loyalty aspect of agility training is a big part of what Steinbach and Sport get out of the constant training they do at home in their backyard agility course, as well as the numerous competitions they compete in throughout the year from the local to national levels.
