Tournament Season!



Tournament season is here!


That means it's time for:





The River Runner's annual tournament held in Warman, Saskatchewan on the Mother's Day weekend. Have a team? Come join us!


We offically started our flyball season this last Sunday, sending a small team to Regina for the KAOS tournament. It was ... interesting, to put it mildly.


See this guy?


You can have him. He likes to play by his own rules.



No really, he makes them up. 'Cuz it's more fun to run on the right, even when you're supposed to run on the left. And never EVER let an excited pointer beat you down the lane. Even if you have to miss all the jumps to beat him, you better beat him. Just sayin'.



Other than a few Ben-related problems, the tournament went fairly well. At the very least, we ironed out a few kinks and have a better understanding of where our dogs are at coming into the tournament season. Which is good, because on Easter weekend we're in Lloydminster.



Where we want to get some points. Because this guy:


(has a really horrible box turn...)


Is only 1200 points away from his Flyball Master title. He's been running now for two full years, this year being his third tournament season. So flaky, frustrating, make-your-own-rules bojack or not, the guy can run. You know, maybe you can't have him...


We'll see how he does in Lloyd. He has to catch this guy:


He became a Flyball Master last year. 'Cuz he's awesome like that.

He will catch him. Soon. He's faster than the fuzzy one.
