June Photo Contest in here

[MickeyD'sMom]

The theme for this will be your pup's launch off the dock prior to entering the water. Good luck everyone!

[Team Chloe]

Would this qualify as a good picture?

http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r292/elkster23/BridgerFlyndirty.jpg

Not my pup...but used for example purposes....I was the photog....you would think it would freak a dog out to do that....

But on the next jump...the dog went 25'.......

[renegade]

Are we looking for the actual take off from the dock? Or in the air too?

[Emmie1020]

Charity's Take off... Hope this is what you want

[MickeyD'sMom]

Charity that's it! Wendy either/or. Just prior to entry though.

[Team Chloe]

Effective 6/9/2008 I am formally stepping down as Campaign Manager of Peja or MickeyD's Picture of the month Campaign. Chloe has asked me to represent her in the June Picture of the Month Campaign and I have accepted that responsibility!

We have nothing but the greatest respect for Peja and MickeyD and know that they will be running a tough campaign against us. Peja had mentioned to me that he really only had entered the water on one occasion and had doubted that anyone got that on film! Peja believes MickeyD will carry the torch and succeed in routing the competition!

Good luck MickeyD and all the other competitors. Chloe will be reviewing her pictures this evening and will be making her selection based on Altitude, Attitude and best athleticism.....

As campaign manager of Chloe, we will not promise lower wave fees, we will not promise lower taxes, we will not promise that MickeyD will every Sit/Stay...but we will promise to try and put on one heck of a show every time we take the dock!

Thank you for your consideration...and look back here for the picture Chloe chooses in the next couple of days!!

Go Chloe....Go Chloe....Vote for Chloe!!

[MickeyD'sMom]

I see Dave has already started his campaign, well let me say that I am sure he will run a fair race, however, MickeyD's new campaign manager feels quite confident in this race and we wish Ms. Chloe all the best.

[PrinceAndyFlores]

Prince Andy says he wants redemption. He is determined to make top 5 this month! He says that will make his June!!! Hope you all can help our precious lil boy!

Remember, VOTE FOR PRINCE ANDY!!!!

http://i197.photobucket.com/albums/aa301/OTFlores_2005/Andy/AndyFlyingHigh2.jpg

GO ANDY GO!!!!

[ChocolateDawg]

Sally thinks this photo deserves some votes. Do you have any idea how hard it was for her to hold that pose in the air so we could take a picture???? LOL

[MickeyD'sMom]

Need I say more....

[FoxgloveBC]

Well I think Miss Foxy Pants wants to be "Miss June"

Now I think about the work I put in for her to be jumping off the dock...shes come a long way!

[MickeyD'sMom]

Awesome JJ!
Tell them how old he is that should be good for a few more votes!

[PrinceAndyFlores]

[Team Chloe]

Chloe picked this picture out! Photo credits go to the "Chase Away K9 Cancer's" very own Cera Reusser! In honor of Cera and Chase.....I present you with Chloe's picture!

http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r292/elkster23/Chloeshowingherpearlies.jpg

As a side note.....Chloe mentioned to me that if she was elected, her campaign promise is to donate $1 for each vote plus $25 to the "Chase Away K9 Cancer Fund"! She says...that way...everyone is a winner!!!

Campaign Manager and Pheasant Thrower....

The Campaign Manager's are still in discussion on the picture selection, but I think they are close!

[NevadaPuP]

:D Sandra, all I can say is I think we have created some monsters ;) The campaign is on.......

Nevada needs to puruse through her plethora of photos and consult with her media constituents and then she will post the appropriate photograph.

[SplishSplashCrash]

..but it's darn cute. Crash is tucked and ready for landing!

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d87/slvrwngs4484/Dog%20Stuff/Crashjump.jpg

[MickeyD'sMom]

After much deliberation with Jazzie, we have selected the following photo of MickeyD.
http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o185/sandraestewart/HPIM0384-1-2-1.jpg
Photo will follow.

[MickeyD'sMom]

Okay here it is...look at the focus of that dog.
http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o185/sandraestewart/MKDLongBeach.jpg

[Team Chloe]

How can he focus with his eyes closed!!! LOL

That is another great picture!

Way to go MickeyD!!

[MickeyD'sMom]

Well that just shows how smart he is, after all look even with his eyes closed he almost has his "birdie", just another example of a lousy throw by his handler...shhhhhh don't tell Jim I said that.

[MickeyD'sMom]

[Stanley]

..........your pup's launch off the dock prior to entering the water.

Looks like we may have a tail touching the water, or is that the beginning of a hanging chad?


http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o185/sandraestewart/MKDLongBeach.jpg

[MickeyD'sMom]

That tail doesn't look wet to me!

[Team Chloe]

Chloe says...."Something Smells Fishey!!"

http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r292/elkster23/ChloeandBerfdayFish.jpg


But as Campaign Manager I have told Chloe that it is a great picture!!! We would rather compete with greatness, than win because there is a little water on a dogs tail!!

[MickeyD'sMom]

I have a clarification from a judge....the ruling is as follows: He had not officially entered the water as the official measurement is from the base of the tail and the base of the tail has not entered the water. So nice try Craig!!!!

[FetchExpress]

This was my guy taking off his dock(ummmm....we are short on docks in UT so we use banks) this past weekend. A guy came out to shoot my 2 new MH dogs and started fooling aroud with my Chessie and this is what came out! Thanks to John Hapner for these awesome pictures!!

Sorry I dont know how to make em big like the rest of you! Someday I will not be computer dense!

[Team Chloe]

Very nice pics Fetch!! I love the water droplets!!

[NevadaPuP]

Okay I have the winnnnnnnnnnnner...... ;)

http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q73/MooseRajah/KZoo%20Humane%20Society/MooseKzooHumaneSociety.jpg

[MickeyD'sMom]

That's another good one! Lots of competition on this one! Way to go everyone. Nominations will be tough!

[Team Chloe]

Sandra....you are very correct! Very tough competition!!! As your pups former campaign manager.....I think you need to look at different strategies and effect them soon....or this race will be over! I know you have a few more tricks up your sleeve! Can't wait to see your strategy!!

Folks....don't forget when nominations open.....That Chloe would really appreciate your vote.....

You don't see Chloe wearing party hats, you don't see her standing in front of an American Flag, you don't hear her making promises she can't keep.....all she promised was if you vote her in as Miss June.....then she will make a $1 donation to the "Chase Away K9 Cancer Fund" for every vote plus and additional $25! That's a promise we can keep!!!

Chloe's picture is back on Page two!

Chloe's my pup....and she approves of this message!!

Not sure if I'm to late but here is one I took when my dog first started learning to dock dive.

[EDIT]Removed to make entry more clear.

-Lee

[MickeyD'sMom]

Lee:
Great shots! Only was is allowed in the completion and they are both so good, which one #1 or 2 do you want considered?

[ssejrnv]

Sandra,
I thought it was that you could only post one picture per dog??? Leland's top post is of his dog, Sir William and the second post was of another club member's dog, Katie. They are both Golden's but really they are two different dogs.
JJ and the 6-pack

[MickeyD'sMom]

Sorry JJ I got confused....it comes with age. By the Way you need to post how old your wonderful dog is that flies through the air! Should be good for more votes. Jim will see you in Redding! Now watch Dave he will be all over that mistake and call me senile! How did he know!

[Team Chloe]

I would get ahold of Katie's handler and have her post that picture....could be the winner! Very cool pic!!

[Team Chloe]

What a cute picture of Peja! In the politcal world the term for what Peja did by saying it was his campaign manager that made all those promises, is called Spin Doctoring! Peja didn't have any problems with it while it was happening, but now that the pressure it on, Peja must try and separate the MickeyD campaign form those misleading items in his campaign that may shed a negative light on MickeyD.

As for Andy Rooney.....Sandra....what age demographic are you going for?

Geeze I go fishing for a morning....and I come back to this!! LOL

PS....

What a great group of pics are being posted!!!

[lede]

Sorry I should of been a little more clear. The first image was the one I wanted to enter since its my dog Sir William. He was about 17 month old in that picture and it was just before he got super sick on me last year. He fought a tough battle last year and survived to be back at his favorite sport. He taught me a good lesson this year, never under estimate his jumping abilities. I got a trifle moist from that bet....

The second picture was just a really fun picture that I though every one might enjoy. I'm not sure how old she is but the intesity on her face is just amazing. When I was taking this picture her handler tossed the toy out there when the wind picked up and blew it a little off course. Katie in mid air adjusted her jump to try and get her toy despite the wind. This is what I call a 300% luck shot, 100% lucky I was there, 100% lucky it was in focus, 100% lucky I had film in the camera. What can I say every dog has their day :D

-Lee

[lede]

I would get ahold of Katie's handler and have her post that picture....could be the winner! Very cool pic!!

I might but then again would hate to have her beat my dogs picture ;)

-Lee

[Team Chloe]

Leland! The victory is shallow if the best are'nt in the game! So I would get her to post! It's just for fun!! Unless you really like dried Tripe!

LOL

[Sassy Girl]

What is this month's prize Sandra? Not that it would make a difference on whether I post or not!

[Labpaw]

Here one of the puppy, Abraham & Eggs showing off his muscles:

Ursula:
Peja donated his prize back from last month...so whatever that was. Come on jump in and get crazy like the rest of us!!!

[Katiesmom]

Here is Katie "on the attack" for her soccer ball. (special thanks to Leland photographer extrodinaire for taking the photo) She 18 months old.

LOL

And you though I was serious hehehehe :D

-Lee

[Team Chloe]

I just wan't sure if you really had a thing for dried Tripe!

[ssejrnv]

Hey Dave,
My dogs LOVE LOVE LOVE Tripe and can't believe someone's mom was so mean as to donate it back into the pot but I'm hoping we might come away with the Tripe even if we don't get the win.
JJ and the 6-pack

[MickeyD'sMom]

As for Andy Rooney.....Sandra....what age demographic are you going for?

Dave:
Peja is somewhat confused over this remark......as you have somewhat of a hint of what's to come!!!

[Rajah]

Here's one of my favorites of Rajah.

http://flyinghighk9s.com/Rajah_Yorkville.jpg

[MickeyD'sMom]

Peja is very pleased to announce this latest endorsement......Please shhhhhh don't let Tony know Hillary is on his board!
http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o185/sandraestewart/download-2.jpg

[Team Chloe]

Hillary has come out in support of Barack Obama.....so even though Hillary is backing MickeyD......in essence she is also backing Chloe through her support of Mr. Obama!

http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r292/elkster23/ChloeBarack.jpg

I'm Chloe and I approve of this message

[MickeyD'sMom]

Peja just found this in the archives.......
http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o185/sandraestewart/kennedy-1.jpg

[Team Chloe]

I asked myself......What could I do for MickeyD?


I thought long and hard.......



Industrial Strength VELCRO!!

To improve that Sit/Stay!!!

[MickeyD'sMom]

You know what Dave?????? He may just surprise you in Redding! Of course, I would not place any money on that one.

[lede]

Dave,

Next time you write something like that make sure I'm not drinking soda, I sprayed soda all over my monitor. BTW I just checked the rule books and I didn't see anything addressing this modification to your dog so it might work.

-Lee

[ssejrnv]

Well,
Since I have NO campaign manager and I don't know how to use photo shop thought I just post a picture.
I liked this one because it looks like she is trying to walk on water to get to her toy.

These two have been at it all day. The cat Keeps telling her she has no Shot what so ever. Charity finally had enough today.

PLEASE VOTE FOR CHARITY. I DONT WANT TO BE MISSING A CAT

[lede]

Hey can your cat fetch and swim?

[MickeyD'sMom]

JJ:
Great picture. Maybe next campaign Peja can work with you! Of course that depends on how he ends up running this campaign for MickeyD.

Nice try Dave.....that is my Mother and son and she was 100 in December! Hmmmm does this mean we can not trust your campaign????

[Team Chloe]

Sandra....my campaign Gma said vote for Chloe and MickeyD? Hmmmm...trust?

Did Hillary really come out in support of MickeyD? Kennedy?

That picture of your mom, son and your hand was a great picture! Your mom looks so good for 100! I don't even look that good at half her age! Looks to me she was smoochin on that son.....not asking him to vote for MickeyD! LOL

PS....if she was asking him to vote for MickeyD.....look at her right hand.....she has her middle fingers crossed! LOL

[MickeyD'sMom]

The whisper in his ear came after the smooch. There is not a man alive that gets near my Mother that doesn't get one!

[Team Chloe]

I would be honored!!

[Team Chloe]

Nice extension...I would like to see the fingers and toes pointed a little more...it would give you a nicer line!

However, you did not get much pop at the end of the dock!

I think it deserves an honorable mention!

[MickeyD'sMom]

Craig the rules are one photo so which one are you entering?

[Stanley]

Craig the rules are one photo so which one are you entering?

Craig entered his dog Stanley jumping.

Should I ask Stanley about the photo he entered? He has been Roo Roo-ing all week about entering his dog.

[MickeyD'sMom]

Okay then I guess it's up to Stanley! But watch out Lee's dog may enter him too...and then what about Urs, after all, she hold the record! Oh but wait she did not go in on purpose!

[Team Chloe]

and Sandra....I don't think there was a picture of it!

[MickeyD'sMom]

Dave:
It's on Howie's "Cash Event" page on his website.

[lede]

Thankfully Sir Will has had his internet access revoked for the next few months. After one day coming home to a crate of dog treats sitting in my drive way we had to take some privileges away.

-Lee

[MickeyD'sMom]

Shhhhhhhhhhh while Dave is up in Redding, he doesn't think we will post!!!
http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o185/sandraestewart/download-3-1.jpg

[Team Chloe]

Sandra is sleeping and she forgets I have internet access at the hotel!!

I will have to say.....Peja did keep one of his campaign promises!!! Not only that....I think it was the toughest promise to keep!

MICKEYD DID WONDERFUL SIT/STAYS @ Redding today!!!!!!! Jim was tossing right in front of MickeyD's face and MickeyD was responding with high 21 foot jumps!! Jim is sitting atop the leader board I believe tied with Suzy and Tinka!!

Congrats Peja and MickeyD for keeping this promise.....

After seeing this display today.....I put the Velcro away!!!

(but I didn't throw it away!)

Good luck to MickeyD in the finals tomorrow!!! He really deserves this win.......

Congrats to Jim also!!! It was a great day!!!

[MickeyD'sMom]

I am so embarrassed by this terrible hairdo Mom got me, but I just had to cheer my brother on.....-Peja

Good luck Tinka and MickyD! Hope you two did great in the finals. While they we're out competing Sir William and I were out practing for next weekend. I have a photo that just blows my mind away but will have to wait till the compatition is over to show it.

-Lee AKA(Sir Williams Dad)

[Team Chloe]

Good Gosh Peja.....would you pull a blanket over yourself or something!!!!! .....that's embarrassing!

Congrats to MickeyD and Jim for a great weekend! MickeyD did so wonderful!!! Just wish I hadn't left that industrial strength Velcro in the hotel room during the final four!!!

[MickeyD'sMom]

We are so proud of MickeyD, he almost kept his campaign promise the entire weekend!!!!

[ssejrnv]

Hi Sandra,
Sorry I guess it not easy keeping track of all my dogs (I should know, I can hardly remember their names). The first picture I submitted was of Spud, my old man (less than a month to go now until he turns 13). The second picture is of my little JRT Emma. Thanks for doing so much work with this however don't think we stand a chance against Mickey D. My dogs said to offer a vote for the Tripe though, LOL
