    How exciting Kari! Way to go Finn! That looks like so much fun. You may get addicted to it, I know I would.

    Thank you Kay for the beautiful sig!

    I knew I would before I ever even tried it. And, I am officially addicted. I don't know how you couldn't be, though, if your dog liked it. It's really really difficult to wear Finn out, and this event does it. He sleeps like a baby after an event and is so happy during the event. We are looking at going to Oklahoma in June. It's only five hours away. There's one next month in Alabama, but that's eleven hours, so it would be a lot more difficult to make it, but, it might still be an option. You know I'll be sure to let you know if we compete again!

    Whoo-Hoo!!! You go Finn! How exciting. I always have thought it looked so exciting and fun on TV, and now I know a real dock jumper. Congrats Finn, and I will keep my eye out for the day you are on TV. I will have to see if there are any in this area in the summer time, I would love to go and watch on in person.

    Way to go, Finn!

    Is there a website with a list of their events?

    Yeah, it's www.dockdogs.com. There were several people in Louisiana that drove from Florida. Apparently they all belong to a club there and drove together, I think. I wish we had a club like that near here. There is a club, but I don't think they're all that active, because I can't seem to get in touch with anyone via email. :/ We are seriously looking at driving to Alabama next month, yay!



    Thanks for all the congrats! I'm still on cloud nine!

    Most of them are labs or lab mixes, and that's mostly because labs are so fond of the water and will learn quickly if it involves water. But, the competitions are open to all breeds! Some of the non lab breeds I remember...rottweiller, jack russell, and border collie. I know there are others, my mind's a blank! The world record is held by a greyhound/coonhound mix!

    And, we would love if you could come see us. There's an event in Georiga next month, hahaha. I doubt we can make it to it, but it might end up being an option.
