Southern Championship - Destin, FL (9/19-9/21)

You know what to do.

Ok here is one I took of Rocky watching the other dogs jump before his first jump.



Here is one of Rocky jumping.


Thanks everyone for your help with Rocky and making us feel welcome.

One of my favorites I took of Dave

Ok... here are our pictures. There are a lot of them, but we think we got a majority of the competitors. Some are just darn cute ones of non-jumping things.

This is our view straight out of the hotel room. We literally walked out onto a patio to this....





Here are the two Novice Jumpers in the finals. Seriously, how cute are these guys?!?!

Here is Suzanne with her boy Sonic. Who knew Poodles could (or would) fly?



And his housemate Raya, who is only 8 months old! She was so bouncy!!



And some of the junior jumpers...

This is Andrew and Nina Marie, at their first competition. I think they are hooked!



This is Spit, another first timer and his human Kim:



And one of our awesome junior handlers, Dan, with his dog Thunder:



Another junior handler, Allison , with her dog Nickel:



And some senior jumpers too...

This is speedy Rocky, yet ANOTHER first timer:



This is Gray and his dog Bullock:



The mighty Ham & Eggs:





Dinah and Dave having some fun:



And Lori and beautiful Dexie:



Nancy and the BIG jumping Spud:



Nancy and Miss Sally, who was flying too!



Here is Tracker, who busted out a HUGE jump in the senior finals (and his Dad kept all his fingers, thankfully ):

Here are some more....

On to the Master/Ultimate jumpers (never got one of Guage, unfortunately ):

Ian and Parker (cool name ), first timers! Holy Cow! That dog did great in UV AND Air!



Midnight, who struggled at first, but then found her stride with Rob:



Colby flyin' high:



Lightening... Look at that focus!



Our most handsome mascot (or one of them, anyway), Sparkey:



Our brave, brave (did I mention CRAZY ) UAD family risking life and limb on the high wire above:

There was a zip line?!?! Dang, now I'm really bummed that I missed this one!

Excited to see Poodles jumping! Yet another breed to add to the stats list!

How did UV go?

Yeah, those poodles were AWESOME!!! We also go a picture of a really cute dog named Divot (golf-aholics, I assume ), that was half CKCS and half something else (the other breed escapes me). He was adorable too! They were just trying it.

UV went really well. Blain with his dog Kita won, I think at 6'8", I believe. Parker, the black lab, competed for the FIRST time, and just BARELY missed at 6'8". It was pretty cool to watch. We didn't get any pictures though. Sorry about that!

Wow what some really great pictures.

Great pictures! Thanks!!!!!!!

A Cavalier, too? Cool!

6'6" on a first time try! That's pretty impressive!

Congrats to everyone! ...and I agree, very nice pics!

great shots but were are the pitties???? none in florida what devastating news! Hey rajah next year digger and rajah need to take a trip to sandestin .

Anyone know what breed Blaine Boudoin's Kita is? I know it's a Lab, just don't know the color. Just checking for a records update. Thanks.

We looked into trying to make it down there but with the high cost to travel and with the little one (jayden), it just makes things more difficult. But like you said, maybe next year.
