- We finally left Friday morning and in less than 30
seconds of travel we challenged another vehicle for rights at the first
intersection. Holly
- Maggie and I have always had great travel
accommodations in the back seat of the Red Rooster. Then the space was
reduced by 30%. Who decided that Annie could ride with Maggie and Me?
Pandy
- I should have just eaten him and then we would
never again have to put up with the little t---. Parker
- When I was young I slept with Dad in a small
drafty tent. Then along comes Rani and on her first flyball tournament
she sleeps on the 17th floor of the Sheraton Hotel. What’s
that all about???? Lacy
- Each night after many
races my badly needed peace and quiet was disrupted with a loud noisy
party – disguised as a stats meeting. Must be a Border collie thing.
Rani
- Mom was red faced
when I went down the left lane and chased the ball over to the right
lane and came back on right lane. It was the fastest way back. Eddi
- All right, I went – ran perfect runs – put up with
the noise and behaved myself. Now, I want my former life style: on the
couch with the cold beer, a cigar and the remote for cable TV. You can
take those tennis balls and stick them!!! Dexter
- First Dad stepped on me as I was launching then he
fell down as I was returning the ball to him. Like you Maggie I think
it’s time for a new handler. Lacy
- I was running hard to achieve fast times and Dad
took me for a swim in a cold pool. Anyone questioning why my times were
slower for the next race? Maggie
- Holy cow batman, Dad was really mad when I left my
crate and decided to see if anyone needed help. I didn’t cause trouble
I was just socializing. Pandy
- I thought it was a great pass but they said I had
to rerun. When I ran to the box the second time Joyce had not placed
the ball in the hole. I decided to stop and stare at the box and Joyce
for about ten seconds just to embarrass her. Annie
- I thought I would test Dad’s mood early in the
morning so I peed in the corridor while waiting for the elevator. Turned
out to be a bad way to start the day. Lacy
- Even though I would rather be lounging around the
house, I am starting to enjoy flyball. What is happening to my pride as
a Golden show dog? Parker
- Mom launched me and said go, go, go. I thought
she was saying no, no, no. So I returned to her and then got benched.
How can I be expected to hear clearly with all that noise? How about a
different command? Scrappy
- Mom kept a key from the hotel. I hope she only
wanted a souvenir and is not becoming a thief. She said that she forgot
to turn it in – yeah right. Rani
- Eddi said that my starting times sucked. So I
kept jumping and head butting Mom until she changed to a proper
launching style. Sorry for your fat lip. Holly
- Each night Taylor would take me into a nice big
lobby at the hotel, then into an elevator with the two silver doors. It
would rumble and shake and I felt the need to lie down on the floor to
be safe. Couldn’t we have rented the lobby and not the room and
organized our own all night fly ball tournament? Annie
- The doors of the elevator opened and there stood
two well-dressed pretty ladies facing me, a young pretty Spo-K9, and an
old country bumpkin. I am sure their disbelief and displeasure was
directed at the old country bumpkin. Maggie
- Mom and Dad told Kenneth to be very polite to the
room guests and then they tolerated the antics of the least civilized
people I have ever seen. Rani
- Rumor has it that mom was squirting water from a
window on the 17th floor at Taylor and David swimming in the
pool below. Please tell me it’s not true. Eddi
- Did you all see me nose in to the box? Mom
thought I had misjudged the distance as I approached the box. Wrong. I
was actually trying to get my rear end up in the air and moon Mom
Buster
- I have run two full tournaments, practiced twice a
week, played Frisbee with the Skyhounds and then Mom pulled me from the
race so I would be rested for the Agility trial next weekend. Nonsense,
I can run several tournaments and still beat all those non-Flyball dogs
at agility with one paw tied behind my back. Eddi
- Mom may have enjoyed flying to Canada in a small
plane this weekend but frankly I found it boring. I will refuse to get
on the plane next time unless I can sit in the left front seat. Puma
- Can you believe my start times? Mom would launch
me and I would vary my running speed to assure that my start time would
be .003 or faster. I even got some .000 starts and mom took all the
credit. I sure make her look good. Eddi
- Where were Colonial Merry, and our good friends
Justin, Eileen and Ric? We missed you guys. Eileen, mom is still looking
for just the right Border-Jack, just be patient. Maggie
