FBI U-Fli tournament (Navan)

Lucy ran only in Singles and Pairs this weekend. Her previous best singles time was 5.5, which she smashed in her singles race on Saturday: 5.2! That race was one of the funnest flyball moments I've had with her. She was running as fast as she ever has and luck was with me in getting some really good start times.

She also ran in Pairs with her best dog friend Sammy. It was Sammy's retirement tournament as she will be pursuing other ventures such as agility and helping look after her new human brother. Lucy and I will definitely miss Sammy and her human in the flyball lanes. Sammy and Lucy learned the flyball ropes together, with house league in Kingston in the winter of 2006-2007 and then graduating on to singles/pairs at U-Fli in their first tournament in April 2007. It was a fun journey; we wish Sammy all the best in her other pursuits!
