RETIRED DOGS
Crumble (Owned by Lou & Ali)
Little poem about Crumble aka Rumble ....
Crumble was found wandering the streets as a stray
Eventually and thankfully she came our way
A ball she will carry until it becomes a gooey froth
And when she shakes her head, you're glad of a cloth
The queen of chase is certainly no slouch
Then loves nothing more than being snuggled up on the couch
At flyball sometimes gets distracted and in a bit of a muddle
But always comes back to us for a great big cuddle.
We rehomed Crum when she was about 6 years old. She spent 3 years in starters as she loved to chase the other dogs. Once in open though Crumble blossomed into a rock solid flyball dog and retired at 14 years old after achieving her Gold Award.
Buzby (Owned by Lou & Ali)
Buzby aka Boo Boo ....
Why was my boy chained up in a yard of grime?
Now looking sleek and stunning in his prime
Well what am I going to do with Buzz?
When in the flyball ring his head goes to fuzz
Watch out at the box as here comes the steam train
Like an excorcet missile he races up the lane
His whole life revolves around a tennns ball of yellow
But most of the time is a big soppy cuddly fellow
Buzz enjoys his food but never will beg
Ask him to sit and he will give you a salute of his leg.
Buzby, we rehomed at about 6 years old. He nailed flyball straight away and was not long before he was flying high with the big boys. Buzz has been an absolute delight to race and he also represented Wales at the European championships in 2016.
Charlie (Owned by Ron)
Charlie is my third flyball dog, a rescue. He started in 2008 and achieved his Chica Chicana in June 2014 ( 40,000 points) Retired in 2016.
