Thought you'd like to see these photos of Leilani This was her second Toss and
Fetch Competition.
The first run we kept her on the long line and the second run was her first time
off the long line!
It was super windy and don't think she caught more than 2 discs but we got some
great shots of her.

Kentucky was great. Sunny and
warm. Cooper did fabulous traveling.
No accidents in the hotel rooms. Even from a 5th floor room on Friday! What a
good boy.
He does his little Cooper dance, goes to the door and whines to go out. I am very
proud of him.
We were all glad to get back to home sweet home. Sheila Slater

Star LOVES herding sheep!
Thornapple Star Dust "Star"
Star's first run was awesome. The
second run she was stressed and decided to eat
sheep poops instead. Baby Star aims to please at all times. Her trainers are
wonderful.
I have specially chosen everyone of them, She is very young and I do not want
her
stressed out. I want every time to be an incredible party.We stop and have lots
of parties.
We take seven days between parties. It is hard to cross train.
