Bandits get new best time

Today the Brickyard Bandits were down on Wimbledon Common competing in the flyball tournament. We have never been to this venue before but we will definitely be going back. It had lovely long walks for the dogs and plenty of space to play ball without distracting the flyball comp.

The Bandits have had their best run ever, we achieved a new personal best in the first race with 19.79 and went on to run consistent times throughout the day. We had five races today and the Bandits won them all, winning the division, admittedly some of the races were not easy and infact most of them went to the full five legs. All the dogs were on form and Keisha and Dylan have now started to get used to crossing with each other which was a great break through. Kody joined in on the warm up and finished the day with completing the full run, it was such a lovely achievement and I'm very excited for when he joins the Bandits team.

I caught Zippy having a well deserved sleep in the front of the van, after the excitement of watching the flyball and meeting his friends and new people again he was more than ready to have his lunch and an afternoon snooze. I can't blame him, if I got chance I would have done the same thing too.

The Brickyard Boomerangs had a great day too, after a good day of racing they finished second in their division, Kathryn was running her boxer Diesel, apparently there has only ever been two boxers that have competed in flyball as they find it very difficult, but I'm proud to announce Diesel completed her run today and infact won the last race for the team. Well done to the Boomerangs.
