Scottsdale Pet Fest

We arrived back late last night from the Scottsdale Pet Fest. It was a ton of fun. It was a bit cloudy on Saturday, but hot and sunny and beautiful on Sunday. Any of you who went to Cynosports last November will remember the great Westworld venue. Really beautiful place.

Lots of newbies out there all weekend. Some who would not even jump off the dock at first were flying by the afternoon.

Congratulations to Marilyn and Phoebe for jumping 23' 4" to get into the finals and then getting 1st Place in the Pro Finals with a jump of 22' 3". That Phoebe has beautiful form and a great personality. Dunkin also performed like a star and kept the crowd laughing at his antics.
Kudos to Marilyn.

Greg and Randy were hilarious all weekend while announcing. Greg commented on every person and dog that walked by and Randy played straight man to all his jokes. Las Vegas should hire them as a comedy act.

Thanks Tony for another great time. We enjoyed Jumping, Swimming, Wrangling, and Spending time with our Splashdogs Family.

Brooke & Chase

P.S. Chase chipped a tooth catching the football in his mouth on one of his jumps. Such a feisty competitor!

Oh, hey Kim . . . I finally saw your video WITH the sound! It's even more funny! And that's me saying something about you not needing a stinking bumper! I was using Cera's camera, and I was also filming when Tessa jumped 20.03. Yes, that's me SCREAMING!

Hi guys

first of all, I want to thank Tony, Randy & Greg for putting on such a great event. Westworld is gorgeous! And, As Brooke said, Greg & Randy make a hilarious comedy team. There were lots of newbies that were very excited about this sport. That was fun to see how much they progressed in 2 days-wow!

Chase did a great job this weekend. Very consistent jumps. Of course, Brooke does very consistent throws- that does help :lol: :lol:

Everyone, thank you for all your kind responses regarding my dogs & me. It means alot to me as I have great admiration & love for you and your dogs. We missed having you guys down there.
I was very proud of my kids too. Phoebe & I were connected and Dunkin had a PB of 14' 9" -who would have thought :shock: :shock:

We can't wait to see you all at Wags! 8) 8)

Marilyn, Phoebe & Dunkin
