After days of rain we finally had a break and sunshine. The dogs enjoyed some pool time and frisbee playing. 

Tonight was our last night of rally class and our instructor made it a fun night. We have really enjoyed going and will need to practice more and hopefully do another class. Maybe one day we can go to event but I have to learn signs first lol Maleki seems to like it but who know how long that will last. 

How exciting all three dogs received their invites to the 2019 DockDogs World Championships. This will make year 8 of us going to compete. I'm so excited this year that Maleki will be doing EV and that Kai just like Kona his first year will be getting to go. 

Happy first birthday Kaihalulu. No doubt in our minds that Kona made sure you found your way to us. You are one special boy and I'm so glad you are in our lives. That first year has gone so fast and can't wait to see what adventures we will have together down the road. 

The dogs had a great last day on the dock. Maui, Maleki and Kai all got personal best today. It was a great day with the dogs having a blast and giving it their all.

Bear dog turned an amazing 14 years young today. He really is aging well being 14 is catching up to him but overall he is in great shape and doing really well. We have a custom collar in the works for him and hope to have it soon. Happy Birthday Bubba J. 

Another great day on the dock for the crew. Maleki earned his senior title and ended up going out at 5'10" in EV 1st place Cadet so that should give him a DockDogs World invite. Kai officially jumped off the dock to get his first score. What a fun day with them all.

Today Maui, Maleki and Kai all loaded up to head to California for the Wild Card Event to try and earn their invites for the DockDogs World Championship. This is special because this weekend is the same weekend 8 years ago that Kona started our love for DockDogs. Kai will hopefully have his first official scores this weekend and we will see what plays out maybe he can also get an invite his first year! The drive down was easy and smooth can't wait to get to the event in the morning. 

Luna did something tonight I didn't think she'd be able to do on the first try. She passed her CGC and really well at that!

This girl loved her training way more than I thought she would. For anyone that knows Luna you know how far this girl has come the last year. I can't thank HempMy Pet enough for that with their awesome CBD oil that helped us get her off her pheno so she could come out hiding. Way to go Luna girl!
