By the way, we heard that flyball competition is around the corner, probably this June. As usual, Pacco de Mongrel wouldn't wanna feel left out. But only once a week practise wouldn't make much improvement on my skills. I'm facing trouble with the flyball box.
So Ms Owner yet again, using her great imaginative skill work, came up with DIY flyball box that doesn't cost us a penny.
1st - Learn to step on a wooden plank
2nd - Elevated it a little
3rd - put the wood plank on the slope resemble a flyball box
4th - learn to retrieve while stepping at the same time
5th - replace wooden plank with different material
After a couple of season, I roughly got the idea of it. But I looks a little awkward when I was ask to 'stay' and strike a pose. We are looking forward to put our skill for test this Sunday. Can't wait for it! Paw crossed.
By the way, for those who are interested in flyball training, we found an interesting read by Kelly Price for 'Swimmer's Turn'. Although I don't fancy swimming, but swimmer's turn should worth a try.

I think I'd make a great flyball teammate with you Pacco...I love tennis balls and I'm pretty fast too!

Pee Ess...Mom loves the jamiroquai song on your bloggie!!
Hi Pacco! You're pure black, I'm pure white. I'm a boy, you're a girl. You can jump, I prefer to lie down. Opposites attract.
Can you hear me now? I'm barking all the way from New York!
Barks,

Woofie! Pacco! Just passing by. I brought some treats but I ate it together with the other treats left for you! Burp. Sorry. Hey, your awards truly rock!
I look forward to seeing you whizzing down a flyball course soon!

Hello Pacco,
We are sure you will do well in the Flyball training! :)
OMdoG! You got me all excited Pacco! A Flyball competition? I wanna wanna wanna join!!! But I've never learned how to use that box. At my training grounds, the ball flies towards my face. Who's organizing the Flyball competition? Btw, I don't think I can ever do the Swimmer's turn as I'm not a fast dog like you...
Love licks,

Pacco, you have the perfect physique for flyball. Hope you do well. Can't wait to see pics. We've seen dogs doing flyball before and it looks great fun. I Noah would be hopeless. I'm a big bumbling bear.

I think Louie and I would be great at that flyball stuff. We can jump really high and we love to chase the ball. Dad is trying to get us into a herding class since that is what blue heelers do best. He found this place pretty close so we are hoping..
