Cantley Park tournament

Today saw us set off to Cantley Park with a 4 dog division team and 3 of our starter dogs to join the starters from Paws8.

We were running early so no time to rest before racing. The morning didn't go well as Mollie decided she was going to drop her ball every time. As the humans got more and more frustrated, Mollie just pulled her best sad face and had the line judges feeling very sorry for her - nice one!!!!! For the last race we swapped so that Mum was running Mollie and I ran for Auntie Kerry. This worked perfectly (I don't care who I run for as long as I get my Kong tuggy at the end) and Mollie came all the way back with her ball! Bless her she just wanted Mum, obviously I would never be like that! Unfortunately we got no points for a whole mornings running! Tsk tsk Mollie!

In the afternoon we stuck with the new way of running and Mollie brought her ball back for Mum every time. I thought it would be fun to leap around a bit in anticipation of setting off, nearly knocking Auntie Kerry flying a couple of times. I think I got a headbut in at one point too!!! We managed to earn some points in the afternoon, although didn't win any races, but Mollie was definately on a 'go slow' and she couldn't even blame the heat!

Our starter team had much more success. Inca, Harvey and Ollie were joined by other starter dogs from the Crazies and Paws8 to make up a team called Monster Paws. The humans said they were very proud of our babies as they all ran perfectly making their owners very proud. They even managed to come 3rd (based on times rather than wins as on wins they were joint 1st!!).

We now have a few weeks off from the tournaments to practice, improve and prepare for Scarborough where we hope to have the rest of our team back and fully fit again!
