Milwaukee Dog's Flyball
Team placed 2nd in Division 2 both Saturday and Sunday of
High Fives' Deja Moo Flyball Tournament! The team lost only
one race per day and was beaten only by the teams that went
on to win the division. The team courted break-out twice on
Saturday with two fast heat times of 19.53, but had their
best heat time on Sunday with a 19.41.
Kobi (Mark Anderson), Finney (Fred Kauer), Whim (Marnie Hammerle)
& Teddy (Karen Michalski) put together strong, consistent
runs for 2 days, overcoming a lot of challenges to insure
the team's success throughout the weekend. Saturday's stars
were Disney (Mari Pavleje) and Keye (Vera Hammerle). Congratulations
to Disney and Mari for a very successful first tournament
as Disney earned her FD. Keye and Vera (new to racing as a
team) posted a PERFECT 0.00 start time much to the envy of
all the other start dogs on the team. And on Sunday, Duncan
(Nichole Reiner) earned his FDCH after almost a year away
from racing! Also a special gold star goes out to Xoe &
Kim Follett who practiced run backs with the team on Sunday
and took a real step forward toward competition.
All in all, it was a very successful tournament. Our thanks
to High Fives for putting on such a fun event. As usual, we
couldn't have accomplished what we did without help. Thanks
to Kim Follett and Mari Pavleje, who ran their dogs but also
put in a lot of help to the team, Sarah Byers, Tina Felle,
Nick & Kathleen Hammer & Vera Hammerle.
