Parkour is thought by many to be an extreme sport—especially when people see parkour practitioners (known as traceurs) climbing walls and jumping off buildings. However, it might be better to characterize parkour as a radical art form involving both the body and mind. Although this art form can be extreme, it does not involve the teamwork, structure, or competitiveness of organized sports. In addition, traceurs can be difficult to recognize, as they do not wear matching uniforms to identify themselves. Parkour and its practitioners are in a category of their own.
The ultimate goal of parkour is for a person to mentally and physically prepare to overcome any obstacle he or she may face. Traceurs, who pit their bodies against various types of obstacles, often risk physical injury, and safety is an important concern. While practicing parkour, a traceur's route may take him or her over a large boulder, across several rooftops, or across the top of a wall. As dangerous as these acts may sound, most traceurs do attempt to learn the safest way to move, jump, and land. Parkour has become a popular art form in urban settings around the world due to the many obstacles located around the cityscape. This has led to concerns for traceurs' safety, as well as worries about traceurs trespassing on private property and attempting to jump from high buildings. As in most physical activities, safety for oneself and others should be paramount in the practice of parkour.

Ginny the Dog: A Hero Among Heroes

Heroes come in many shapes and forms, but they all do uncommon things in unusual situations. They stand out. We've all heard stories of hero dogs that save their owners. One dog saved his owner by fighting off an alligator. Another woke his sleeping family when a fire broke out in its home. Still others rescue injured or needy people in dangerous situations. One dog even managed to call 911 when his owner suffered a seizure. But one dog, named Ginny, performed heroic acts on a regular basis, not just once or twice in unusual situations. Because of her kindness, many lives were saved.

Ginny the dog was adopted by her owner from an animal shelter in 1990. Within days of bringing her home, her owner discovered that Ginny seemed to be able to find cats in distress. On her daily walks, Ginny would often find abandoned, trapped, or endangered kittens or cats that needed rescuing. In one such episode, Ginny found a group of kittens trapped in a pipe. She managed to let her owner know, by scratching and barking at the pipe, that something needed her help. Because of Ginny, all the kittens were saved.

Almost daily, Ginny would find cats that needed rescuing or, in some cases, a little love. Ginny's owner reported that when Ginny saw a cat on their walks, she would pull away from her leash and run after the cat. Instead of chasing cats like most dogs, Ginny would nuzzle and lick them, giving them comfort. Because of Ginny, her owner soon found he was caring for hundreds of wild neighborhood cats. In addition, Ginny pushed her owner to adopt more than 20 cats, most of whom had permanent injuries or special needs.

"When we would go to the pound to drop off donations," her owner said, "Ginny always found the cat that was blind or deaf or hurt in some way. She would sit down in front of the cat's crate and not move until we brought it home."

What makes a dog behave in such a kind way? Some believe Ginny had a very strong mothering instinct. But how could she tell when a cat was deaf? How did she know which cats needed love and attention? Regardless of how she did it, Ginny rescued hundreds of cats in her life and set an example we all can follow.

What is the main purpose of including the story of Ginny wanting to care for blind or deaf cats?

To create awareness of the need to give to animal shelters
To explain the owner's role in training Ginny
To show that Ginny was aware of cats with special needs.
To suggest more attention be given to special-needs pets
