Eggborough tournament

A few weeks after Middlesborough Mum packed up the car again and we all set off for a weekend camping and flyball at Eggborough! Mum set up the tent with beds for me and Mollie but as usual we preferred to lie on the airbed with Mum! Its much more comfy and its hilarious seeing her trying to find room to stretch her legs out!

On the Saturday we ran as the Minster Monsters and came away with a shocking 5th place in our division!!!!! It was a very warm day and us black dogs do suffer in the heat! Thats my excuse anyway and I'm sticking to it! Saturday night Dad joined us for the rest of the weekend. It was great to see him but it meant even less room on the airbed for us all!

On the Sunday we had a day off from racing so the humans took us for walks through the small wooded area behind the arenas. I managed to do some pretty good hunting even on my lead and had a great time. Mollie and Penny got to chase tennis balls but I was more interested in the bunnies and other wildlife that I could smell, although I never actually got to see any.

On the Monday we ran as Monster Mash in multibreed and got a 2nd place in our division! Mollie ran with the Paws8 Go Wild team at the same time but in a different arena so poor Mum was exhausted running between the two and swapping dogs around. It was another hot day and I decided it would be fun to miss out some of the jumps again! Unfortunately this meant the humans pulled me from the racing ... damn! My half brother Otto came along to watch racing along with his humans again and they filmed some of the racing, luckily it was when I was running right!

Another fun weekend spent with my flyball pals and some good racing. Can't wait until the next tournament!
