Owen experienced his first flyball tournament recently! Flyball is a canine relay race that involves teams of four dogs hurdling over jumps, hitting a box that ejects a tennis ball that the dog catches, and then running back over the jumps as the next dog is released. The team with the fast time wins, and it is a crazy, chaotic, exhilerating time that is a lot of fun.

This tournament took place in Longview, Washington, at the Cowlitz County Fairgrounds. The annual Dogapalooza was also going on, which meant several vendors, lots of demonstrations, and lure coursing! My girls love lure coursing and I wanted to see if Owen would enjoy it as well.
Before we got to lure course though, we had to wait in line and Owen got to meet a couple dogs. The first was a Chihuahua smaller than Owen, which I bet he loved meeting someone tinier than him!
Next, he met a pitbull many times his size! He wasn't too sure about this big dog in his face, but once the pitbull turned away Owen got a little more curious!
After meeting the Chihuahua and Pitbull it was Owen's turn to lurecourse! Come back tommorow to find out how he did!
