    It's great to see pictures of Finn jumping! I've only seen one dock dogs event and it was amazing to watch the dogs. Good luck tomorrow! **whoops, I meant today.**

    Oh, wow! Finn did wonderfully today! He got second place in the pro finals today with a jump of 17'2"! But, the best part of the day was when he got his NEW personal best (and the best jump of the weekend out of all the dogs that competed!!!!). He jumped 21'1"!!!!

    I couldn't be prouder of him! He did pull a muscle or something, though, although I'm not sure when and his last jumps (during the final four) weren't as good as they had been, which is why he only came in second. But, second is still awesome. We got a pretty red ribbon, a big bag of dog food, a fun toy that he hasn't dropped since we got home, and some treats that all the dogs have been snacking on. It was an amazing weekend!

    He also caught the toy twice, which is great! He is really reaching for the bumper now and the jumps are looking great! We only got one photo of him jumping today, but it's one where he's wearing his vest. It's camoflauge, but that's all they had at the place we were at. It works really well. I didn't put it on him for the finals, though, because it had warmed up. Anyway, thanks for all the replies and well wishes!

    Way to go, Finn! I wish your event wasn't on Easter weekend, I would have LOVED to go We could have gone on Sat if hubby could get off work, but he wasn't able to, and we had several plans for Easter Sunday.

    Sorry, Kari Let me know when the next one is, hopefully we'll be able to make it. Finn looks GREAT and I'm so happy he did so good...way to go, handsome boy!!!

    Whoo-Hoo way to go Finn!!! You are a star. He looks so cute with his new toy. I'd wear a Finn's fan shirt if they aren't too expensive.

    I'll let you know if we are going to get anything together. We're even trying to see if there is someone who wants to sponsor us! We've seen a couple of competitors who have sponsors. It'd be great advertising for whoever does it, and it would certainly help us when we have expenses. Big dreams, I know.



    Thanks everyone! I'm just so glad we are able to be a part of the sport. It's a blast.
