Dogs In Training:
Buster: – Buster was in rescue at the age of 3 mos. with a broken leg. The University of Saskatchewan repaired the broken leg and said he would be 110%. Upon arriving in Ontario at 4 ½ months, you would never know he ever had a broken leg. During the summer of 2004, he was a great high jumper in our performances and loved to do the Steeplechase Courses in his OWN way. He has the energy levels and intelligence of both the American Eskimo and the Border Collie and this can get him into trouble ALOT. Buster – American Eskimo/Border Collie Mix, born 2002.

Bud:
Buddy is a Silky Terrier who has
been a wonderful companion who just loves to play at just about anything!
We began learning flyball out east, continuing with his training here in
Ontario. Bud loves the sport and sometimes has his own agenda about the
sport! He is a very agile wee guy who has few limitations, is quick to
learn and a joy to teach! There have been times when I strongly believe
Bud is/has read my mind doing what I was about to ask him to even when I have
yet to tell him to do so! He is a typical terrier who can be
strong-minded, very busy, and very intelligent and a tennis ball-loving fanatic.
All tennis balls in the house must be hidden or he will drive one totally insane
with his demands of come play with me NOW!
We are looking forward to the day Bud runs in tournaments, knowing that
that day will come when he is ready to race with the big boys and girls.
Have some great friends and great company with our team and always look forward
to hooking up and running and spending time with everyone. Simply put,
this sport and Bud sharing it with me has been a gift and one, which I am
so very thankful for! NOTE:
