We called him a force of nature for his energy and exuberance! And when they are born in our hands they are even more special. Fly free Rocky.

Marcie continues to be a great little flyball dog and earned her FM (Flyball Master) on 3/20/10 (5000 points), moving  her up to the #25 slot for FCRs in NAFA. 

She took part in a demo for the local news station and it can be seen here:

She’s in the far (right) lane.

River came to us from Vancouver Island, British Columbia, from the kennel Coastalight Flat-Coated Retrievers, in February 2005. She is smart and quick and lots of fun, loves to retrieve, and has become my great partner in the field. In September 2010 she became a Master Hunter, a goal held since Beau and I started in this game, but weren’t able to finish. Thank you, Beau, for helping us get here!

I love how quickly and easily she learns, her love of the game and her quiet and steady ways. She’s made us very proud!

The 13 ½ years we shared with Ravin were wonderful and we can’t be anything but thankful for all the memories that she gave us. Ravin won her first point at her 1st show in 1990, and won her class at the National Specialty in 2003.
She leaves a legacy of descendants through her kids. Her elegance and soundness and “look at me” attitude will be seen for generations to come.
