Dog Olympics!

Today we met up with Nikki, Courtney, and Jeff and headed to the Dog Olympics! It was awesome!! There were literally dogs everywhere and it was fun to check out all the dogs and events that were going on.  Crosby had a great time and even won Silver in Musical Sit!

Here's the view heading up from the parking lot. There were vendors under tents all around the walk-ways and the event rings were in the center of the entire thing.
We met up with Nikki who brought her dog Roxy and her parent's dog Fletch! She competed with Fletch in musical sit and he just missed the podium with 4th place. It could have gone to anyone...the dogs were pretty distracted!
Jeff and Courtney brought Lucy too. She didn't compete in any events...the excitement of being there was more then enough for her!
Here's Crosby and Fletch in the arena for musical sit! There were about 8 dogs entered.  We had to walk around in a circle until the music stopped and the last one to sit was eliminated.
And Crosby took home the Silver!!!
This the best attempt of a photo of all four dogs we could get:

They also had a ring set up with a jump! We took the dogs in to see how they would do. Fletch was signed up for the high jump later that afternoon but he ended up being more into walking under the jumps then soaring over them, plus it was getting hot and the pups were tired, so we headed out a bit early.  Here's Fletch showing his limbo skills and Crosby flying high!


All in all it was an awesome day! We really enjoyed hanging out with our other dog-loving friends and being outside on a gorgeous day! Here's a few more pictures just cause I took way too many!!



And this is what Crosby looks like at home after winning her medal. Being an Olympian is exhausting!

Love, 
L, D, and C
