Way to go Melissa and Stryker!

Also a HUGE congrats to Brian and Maximus.. I have to say, I think that was probably that was probably the most exciting jump I've seen at an event to date. . . and because of both Maximus's jump and Brian's reaction.

What a great event!

CONGRATULATIONS to Melissa & Stryker and Brian & Maximus! What an exciting show!! (Tony, you've really got to move SV to the middle of the day!)

My friend, Rhonda, was able to get a great photo of Maximus and his 6'-0" jump - it's a little blurry but perfect timing! (I hope these come thru!)

WAY TO GO STRYKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We knew you could do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Linda Hettich]

The best part was when the bumper fell in the water, which Melissa didn't even see! For those of you who weren't there, Stryker pulled one side of the bumper down, at which point Melissa turned around and started cheering. And then, the other side came lose and the bumper fell in the water! We all went NUTS!! And then when Melissa turned around and saw the bumper in the pool . . . well, at that point, she had no choice but to JUMP IN!!

I'm getting goosebumps just writing it! That is a moment -- one of Melissa's many -- that I will never forget!

GO GETTUM, GIRL!!

[Chase]

I agree. That was the topper, seeing Melissa's reaction to the crowd's reaction and then her turning back around and seeing that the bumper had fallen into the pool. Priceless!

Same with Brian's reaction to Maximus' grab. Brian flew into the air about as high as Maximus.

Two memorable moments.

Congrats to all.....SV was AGAIN so awesome and exciting to watch.....Melissa what can I say....well you already know....even saying it we will just cry again......

Brian a huge congrats. I agree with Brooke, hope someone got that picture of your jump....so exciting.

Congrats to EVERYONE.....

I have to say I think it would be nice to see SV in the middle of the day also...or even a practive run in the middle....it is so exciting to watch, I think it would bring a huge crowd....

Ohh.. I missed Melissa jumping IN the pool, that would have been great to see!

Where was I when THAT happened??? Rats! That would've been a killer show haha!

[Sassy Girl]

I have to totally agree, the look on Melissa's face when she realized it came down was priceless....when she looked back at Brian and I, all I could say was LOOK! It's down baby!!!!

[renegade]

So, just so everyone knows that we did consider putting SV in the middle of the day at Wags.

While we know the audience would have enjoyed it more, it came down to the priority of raising more money for wags. We don't get as many entries and it takes quite some time. So that meant cutting out a regular wave or closing the practice pool (and losing practice money). While it would have been great entertainment, we wanted more money for the make a wish foundation...

Sorry :(

[all4sadie]

Wendy no worries....the kids come first...maybe at another event it can be tried out to see how it goes...this was all for the kids....

[NevadaPuP]

Oh man I should have stayed a little bit longer!!

CONGRATS! :)

and also congrats to brian and maximus on a new PB

What a day for EV!!!!! :)

Yeah.... cause maybe then somebody could have gotten a picture of it. I am so not used to having a camera I was holding the dumb thing in my hand. Sorry Melissa.

A Big Congrats, that was awesome to watch.

[Docker Mom]

It was awesome seeing all the dogs competing but seeing Melissa turn around and notice that the bumper fell, that was priceless! I'm glad you jumped in the pool- it needed to be done! And, Marty got some great shots of you in the pool :)
wow, Tractor! I don't believe I've seen him in SV before, but he is FAB! I see him hitting new PB's in the future! Nevada, Emmy, Maximus, Hogan, etc...you all did great!

And, if possible, I think that SV earlier would be a great, also.
