Dock Dog

July 14-15, 2007

Ok so my mom took me to a dock dog competition over the weekend. Even though we did a lot of practicing she was a bit worried weather or not i would jump in. I seem to have a bit of stage fright the last time. Well, on Saturday we did a practice run and i hesitated then jumped in! So, when it came to the first wave i jumped 2'1" and my second jump was 2 feet even. I placed 7th in that wave. The second wave i jumped 2'3" and then 2'11" placing 5th over all. My mom was sooooooo proud of me! I'm really loving this new sport!

Sunday mom decided that we did so well why not try it again? The first wave i jumped 1'1" because i slipped off the dock : ( then i jumped 2'5" placing 8th. the second wave i shocked my mom by jumping 5'1"!!!! that's my personal best! this got me a third place medal! I can't wait for more practicing and the next event in august!
