Grace is a kind of speed.

Blizzard once led a sled team through whiteout conditions by memory alone, and then complained loudly because dinner was four minutes late. This is the whole dog: heroic under pressure, theatrical about everything else. The howling is not negotiable. It has never been negotiable.
There's no snow yet, so Blizzard has redirected his pulling instincts toward the children's wagon, which he hauls around the yard at speeds the children describe as 'awesome' and the parents describe as 'please slow down.' He will not slow down. The wagon has a schedule.
Winter is coming, and Blizzard knows it the way sailors know weather — in his bones, in his howl. When the first snow falls he'll be at the door before anyone's awake, vibrating, ready to pull the whole world if necessary. It is usually necessary.

Collies, shepherds, huskies, mountain dogs — they pull, guard, herd, rescue. They have a union and the union is strong. A Worker without a task will invent one, and the task will involve you.
