Mardi Gras Madness 2011

2/22/2011

On February 18, 2011 the Flyball MAINEiacs headed for Fitchburg, MA and MARDI GRAS MADNESS.  We took 3 teams "Perfectly Seasoned" in Vets, "Bark Off!" in Regular 3 and "What The Fuzz?!" in Multi 2

For a team of dogs that has never run together "Perfectly Seasoned" was GREAT!!  Sally, Annie (NASDOG), Loki (NASDOG), Flossie and Foster (Buffalo Wings) did an excellent job! Andy was fabulous in START with Sally! As always it was lots of fun to run with NASDOG...even Larney got to have some fun! Foster is adorable and a very high drive flyballer...insert visual of Foster in lanes getting belly rub! Flossie did a wonderful job staying focused and proved she's ready for more!  "Perfectly Seasoned" took 2nd place in the Vets division.

"Bark Off!" Certainly had their share of challenges.  Lucy and Shilo were not convinced they needed to bring the ball back EVERY time, Hydro thought he should bring ALL the balls back and Karmela knew the ball HAD to come back with her but it wasn't always exactly where she wanted to get it from.

All and All "Bark Off!" had a pretty good come back on Sunday...in true MAINEiac fashion!  We had a lot of FUN and lanes and managed a 3rd place finish!  Next time around I'm naming this team "Hold Your Balls!"


"What The Fuzz?!" had a Cinderella story weekend!  Sassy, Breezie, Sammie and Kessie (with some help from Shilo and Leap) had a fantastic weekend!  Undefeated ALL weekend! 1st place in Multi 2 and 4 new titles!!!  Sassy really seemed to enjoy running in the start position and Breezie loved running 2nd in the pack with pass in to Sassy!!  Sammie got better and better with her passing and held pretty strong on the return for tug with the exception of one brief visit to FAMES crating area. :)  Kessie, oh Kessie...She run full time for the first time since we started training over 4 years ago! She was rock solid the whole weekend and it was just what I needed!  Thank you Kessie Monster.
Shilo stepped in for Sammie only a couple times and Leap was able to go in for one full race for Kessie.  Leap is BACK!!   Yay!!!


A huge thanks to team for all of their hard work.  Wayne, Julie and Staci rocked on the box!  

New Titles:
Sally FGDCh (40K)
Sassy FMX

Excellent synopsis of an excellent weekend! Kessie definitely has secured her place in team history,and given our captain a perfectly timed reason to experience true joy for ALL she has endured this past year,and lo the years she stuck it out with the Screamin' Queen.
