This week on "Bitches in Controversy," we're diving into the drama that follows us around the agility world! 

First up, Rachael gets real about people underestimating her Corgi just because of her breed and size. Then, Lynsey addresses the infamous "pink shorts" incident and the ringside commentary about more than just her handling.

Lastly, Lizzie spills all the details about how her Aussie Cassian's "big head" became the talk of the dogbook tea group after an anonymous Instagram story post went viral.  

We're also introducing a new segment called "Broken shit & how we’re fixing it," where we get real about our training struggles.  You don't want to miss this one!

This week, we’re decoding the chaos, jeopardy style. From dog sport phrases to conformation confusion, we’re breaking down the terms that make it feel like everyone’s speaking a different language. We play a game, drop some new sticker-worthy catchphrases, and keep things fun and slightly unhinged. Whether you’re deep in the sport or watching from the side lines, this one’s for you.

Our first hot take! The bitches are tackling a controversial topic that has the dog sport world divided: Should bitches in season be allowed to compete? We're diving headfirst into the drama, discussing which sports and venues allow it and which ones don't. We'll get into the arguments on both sides, from concerns about distracting male dogs to the unfairness of female dogs having to pull out of big events they've worked hard to qualify for. We'll also touch on the recent rule changes, the "Let the Bitches Run" petition, and the differing opinions we've seen on social media.

Okay, buckle up for episode 2: "What do these bitches do?"

Ever wonder what these agility-obsessed besties get up to when we’re not just gossiping? This week we are diving deep into the wild world of agility venues! Talking about our journeys through CPE, AKC, UKI, USDAA, and all the rest. Find out which ones we live for, which ones we ensure, and all our hot takes on navigating the alphabet soup of dog sports. The discussion will cover our experiences, what we love, what we don’t, and our goals within all the different organizations.
