Redcar Flyball Tournament

It was a bit of a shock to the system being woken up at 5am to get ready to go to Redcar tournament but we soon realised why we had been woken up that early and happily munched our breakfast and got into the van. Spider and Penny were also travelling with us along with Sal and Kim so the van was packed full.It took us a lot less time than we thought to get to Redcar so we could have had a bit more sleep. Tsk! We'll know for next year.

We were running for the first time as Monster Mafia with Myself, Fynn, Penny, Spider and Mollie. First race on we were all full of energy and ran a great race managing our fastest time ever of 19:13! The humans were thrilled! Although we lost a couple of races we did manage some very speedy racing - even winning some legs with Mollie running - and managed a SECOND place in our division at the end of the day. Not bad seeing as we were seeded 7th in our division! Mollie screamed her support from the side when she wasnt running, I was a bit more professional and just stood there looking cute! We had Ian on the line and it did make me laugh when he kept telling the humans off for dodgy changeovers!!! Certainly kept them on their toes!

Also running today were our starter team with Kia, Yani and new girl Lucy with a couple of extras from the Crazies. Kia and Yani apparantly ran like pro's but then so did Lucy making her Mum very proud when the team came away with a fourth place in their division and even a rosette!

All this winning went to the humans head as on the way home us dogs had to put up with them listening to 80's music VERY loud whilst singing along. All we wanted to do was sleep, did they not understand that!
