  Grace is a member of the 2Fast 2Furry Flyball Team and is truly enjoying herself.  We are still in training....only doing runbacks so far but we'll let you know when she debuts in her first official race!  (That'll be right after she decides the object of the game may NOT be to tag all those delicious Black and White BC's just to prove she's faster....)

Her official disc dog win was Canis Major Sport Division 2009 Champion with the Central Florida Disc Dog Club.  We are travelling to SC for the Freedom Weekend Aloft activities this weekend and can't wait!

We are taking agility classes with Lisa Rieves at PACE dog training center.  Next week starts a summer break for Lisa so we'll be contacting Bonnie McDonald at BonJon Shepherd Ranch to see if we can hook up for the summer.  I sincerely hope to debut this Fall.  Gracie is ready....I'm learning more and more about distance handling....can you figure out why?  :)  Man Terri....you sure do breed 'em F-A-S-T!!!!!  I swear if I could figure a way to light up the obstacle markers sequentially....she'd be all set without me!  Lately, she has begun to predict my thoughts....scary, scary little doggie!  :)

My summer homework from Lisa is to read and practice Control Unleashed.  Previously, I thought that book was referring to aggression and was surprised when Lisa mentioned it for us.  Now, knowing it's about learning to relax and connect....that we can use!  Perhaps I'll find that elusive 'off button' after all!  :)  Hey....that's NOT a complaint!  I asked for an active pup (I believe I was actually tacky enough to phrase it "Not a couch potato....") and man...did you ever deliver!!!

I hope all is well in Texas!  Please know that we're working toward making you proud of us!!!

Hugs,

Debbie and Gracie

Thank you Debbie, for giving Gracie such a wonderful home!
