Ok, ok…I am WAY late with this fantastic new for The Flying Sausage. I got caught up with Buda stuff and the tournament points weren’t posted until this week anyway. So, we went to La Crosse, WI for flyball the weekend of April 21 & 22. We had a small (but mighty) team! These are some of the highlights from the weekend:
- Peaches was one of the highest scoring dogs at the tournament! She got 906 points…her previous best tournament was 584 points! :appl:
- She ran her fastest time ever…6.735!!! :seeya:
- I have been teaching her a new turn on the box that is not only better for her back, but also really improved her speed. When doing the turn correctly, she consistently ran her heats under 7 seconds! SO AWESOME! :D
- Our team won every race we were in, and took 1st place in our division both days of the tournament. :thumbsup:
- 4 out of the 5 dogs on our team got titles. I decorated a cookie to celebrate!
