    You guys are so awesome! Thank you for the comments and compliments! We love our Finn-Dog.

    bckrazy - Finn's longest jump is in my signature...21'1. (Although the photo in my signature is actually from his first event, where he jumped about 14'!) He jumped the 21'1 last Easter (it snowed that day!) at a Splash Dogs event, and the closest he's gotten to that since was in Alabama, where he got 20'1. He averages about 19', though, which is still above average!

    Jadapit - I honestly don't know if I'll ever be actually able to train another dog to do this sport, it's almost all natural for Finn. As far as his focus, I think it's more obsession. Hahahaha. He's just that insane about toys and water. The only thing I have to work on is my own body positioning, his position on the dock and the way I throw the toy. Everything else is just Finn being Finn.


    Thanks again everyone for checking out my photos and for all the great, ego boosting compliments!

    Finn is just the cutest, most handsome boy! I LOVED the photos and videos! Very well done, Mr. Finn you gorgeous doggie. I'm so sorry I didn't get to see you in person...hopefully some day I will. I'd love to see you in person.

    Giselle - I have always liked watching them on tv, too...so it was a dream come true to be on the dock for the first time last March. It continues to be dreamlike to be up there!

    Adoremydogs - I know. I wish we could meet, too. I am bummed we missed not only meeting you guys, but Woody, too!

    I have always had a soft spot in my heart for Finn so it made me so happy to see this thread and watch him in awesome action!

    The photo of him jumping into the blanket is hysterical - love the way the legs are all splayed.............

    What great work you do with him - seems to me that he is such a happy pup that all he wants to do is please you.

    Thanks again for the replies! gini - i know you've always liked my pup, he does like to make us smile. I think he's mostly selfish, though, haha. He just really wants to get in the water.

    Wow Finn, you are one special doggie. Very impressive.
    You must have really worked hard for all these accomplishments.
