Dundee Flyball


Well i must have been mad. Michelle offered me a lift to Dundee in thier van for the two tournamnts this year and i said yes! 550 miles EACH way and a total of 12 hours driving... but it was worth it. First up on Saturday was the Clatto Clangers tournament. It was our first time camping this year and ive really missed it. It makes such a difference to just get up and roll out of bed and you are there! It was a really lovely venue and all the other teams were friendly and it was great to see another southern team the Wimbledon Wizzers make the journey. Cai was on the lights again and he is getting better each time out. He was running very slow for him(around 4.5 seconds) but didnt put a foot wrong. We lost one race on speed to finish 2nd.

Maddie got to have a go in starters pairs and actually did it! i really didnt think she would because she can be quite spooky and stubbon at times. We only made it through to the second round but it was nice to know she is ready for starters now.



Sunday saw us travel a few miles up the road to Caird Park for the Tayside Roadrunners tournament. Wow what a lovely big park with huge trees dotted about, it was great for dog walking. All the dogs were tired from the day before but ran really well and i was pleased as Cai's average was about the same. We had sorted out our crosses more as a team and ended up winning all our races to finish 1st.
