Meet Mouse! 🩵🖤💛

Mouse is another one of Hannah’s dogs (dog no9🙈), and a new addition to our crazy collie crew!
Fun fact: he’s from the same litter as Carnage, with Tess as mum and Ruben as dad! So we’ve got another one of their crazy collie pups joining the team. 😂

Mouse is absolutely loving his flyball training so far. He enjoyed his first session that much he even managed to break out of the van ready to go again! 🙈😂

Age: 4
Breed: border collie
Likes: a ball, snacks
Dislikes: Ruben (his dad)
Most notable behaviour: shares a braincell with his dad and brother 🫣

Cinder has a new PB of 4.73!!! 🩵🖤💛

We have recently took Cinder back to retrain her turn and found out exactly what drives her.
Yesterday at training she hit an amazing time of 4.73 seconds from 20ft with a pass onto a triggered box, and she absolutely smashed it! ⭐️ She just looks happier and happier in each session 🥰

She is such a good girl, and we are so proud of all the hard work Sue has put into her. The progress she is making is amazing and she is really starting to show how much she loves this game! 🩵🖤💛

Another successful training session! 🩵🖤💛

This week we welcomed another dog from Hannah’s household 🙈 although this time Jess was doing the training! Mouse absolutely loved his first session… so much so that he somehow managed to break out of his crate (don’t ask how! 🙈) and arrived at the door telling us he’s ready for another go! 😂

The pups are still absolutely smashing everything we throw at them! ⭐️

🐾 Flair & Shiva are transitioning onto the chute
🐾 Avalanche & Wildfire are perfecting their over-overs

A huge thank you to Checkmate Flyball Coaching for helping us by replying so fast so we can get the very best out of our dogs! 🐾⭐️

🎓🐾 Diesel has officially graduated from Checkmate Flyball Coaching! 🐾🎓

Checkmate has honestly been a godsend for us with Diesel. From chasing balls and splatting the box 🙈😂 to just the other week making his team debut! To make this even better in his very first race he clocked an incredible 3.71 seconds! 🔥

It has taken A LOT of patience, consistency and hard work with this dog, but wow… look at him now! 🥹

He’s turning into one seriously good little flyball dog, and we couldn’t be prouder of how far he’s come. 🩵🖤💛

A huge thank you to Checkmate for everything you’ve done for us and for helping Diesel become the dog he is today. 💛🖤🩶

Although… they can’t get rid of us that easily! 😂 We’ll still be sending plenty of videos their way so we can keep getting the absolute best out of this boy. 💙

Here’s to the next chapter… because we’re only just getting started! 🐾⚡️

King Of The Castle 🏰 👑

G R A D U A T I O N 🎓

It's that time again 🥹🥲

Please join is congratulating Diesel from graduating at Checkmate Flyball Coaching 🖤💛🩶

This handsome Border Collie came to us at the beginning of the year with all the potential you could wish for but it was masked by the chaos of his ball obsession.

It's taken a village of people to get Diesel to this point and Charmaine Wells has done a wonderful job with her first Flyball dog 🤩

3.71 on the clock recently in his team debut and we felt it was about time we say thank you for trusting us and we wish you a long and successful Flyball career 🥂

🩵🖤💛 What a day welcoming new faces to flyball! 🐾

We had such a fantastic time at our Flyball Taster Day, welcoming new owners and their dogs to come along, have a go and see what this amazing sport is all about! 🎾🐶

The dogs and their owners had an absolute blast, and we loved working with so many new people and introducing them to the world of flyball. 🥰

We had so many spaniels with a couple clever collies! 🐶

⭐️ Missed out this time? ⭐️
Don’t worry! You can now message our page to join the waitlist for our next taster day and be one of the first to find out when places become available! 👀🎾

Team Debut Weekend 🩵🖤💛

And that’s a wrap on our team debut! 🩵🖤💛

Very long post for a very long weekend, but it’s definitely been a weekend to remember for every single one of us. Being such a small team, we have already managed to achieve so much, and we couldn’t be prouder. 🩵⭐️

Saturday — The Fast and the Furriest 🩵🖤💛

We ran our Fast and the Furriest team for the first time and WOW… what a team they are! 🤩

💙 Diesel — His first ever time running in a team, and in his very first race he ran a 3.71! 🥹 He’s caused us plenty of headaches and a few tears along the way, but it’s all finally starting to come together. What a good boy he is becoming! ❤️

💜 Revel — Being the perfect boy as always and carrying 99% of his balls!

🧡 Gift — Trusted with Martyn from Finesse Flyball Team, who she had never run for before, and she ran absolutely faultlessly. Thank you so much, Martyn. It was lovely to see how much care you showed her whilst having so much fun together. We all really appreciate you! ❤️

🩵 Carnage — Running all day with Sue and only running out once! If you’ve seen Carnage before her retrain, you’ll understand just how amazing this is. 🥹🩵

We achieved a fastest team time of 16.46 seconds! 🤯🔥And, in Sue’s words, Charmaine’s starts were “fan-bloody-tastic!” 🙈🤣

At Saturday’s presentation Storm Chasers Flyball Team kidnapped Avalanche and Wildfire… we came very close to losing them to them! 🫣🤣

After such an amazing day, we joined in with a bit of socialising with some of the other teams and had such a lovely evening filled with plenty of laughs. And yes… Flair’s name has now officially been changed to Gary…Don’t ask…🤣

Sunday — PC Slots ❤️

On Sunday Bramble, Cinder, Kizzie and Ruben absolutely smashed their PC slots! ⭐️

They’re all growing in confidence with every session we do. Every single session brings new achievements, but also shows us what else we need to work on and build upon.

And that’s what makes these slots so amazing — watching each dog progress and seeing those little wins along the way. ❤️

And finally… the Milly Award 💜

Last of the day, but certainly not the least, was the Milly Award, awarded to Bramble and Tracy! 🥹💜

We are so incredibly proud of this pair and so happy that their very special bond has finally been recognised.💜

What a weekend. What a team. And what a start to our journey. 🩵🖤💛

✨one team
✨one goal
✨no limits
