Happy birthday to the one and only STRIDER!! He is 5 years young and full of bountiful energy. No dog I have had loves his mother more!! The majority of people have no idea the real Strider. He is a King among Princes and fits his name from the Lord of the Rings character Prince Aragorn (aka Strider). He is intense yet wacky! He is handsome with a gorgeous coat but Wonky Ears!! Iron Dog describes him perfectly and occasionally he uses his iron brawn instead of his useful brain!!๐ To the dog has taught me so much, I love you forever and always!!๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐

4 years ago, along came a dog about which I wasn't quite sure. Today, this handsome gentleman Strider has stolen my heart. Life is Never dull with him around!!
He is truly an IRON Dog!! He loves being a dock dog and proved it with 2 great highlights for our team, first in 2017 Iron Dog score 2999.21 and recently in Sept. 2018 Speed Retrieve run 5.829 secs. So much more to this boy, he earned his BCAT title this year and runs with such unabashed enthusiasm!! Despite his handler, Strider loves disc and entertains with his talent. He loves learning and doing tricks.
Strider just simply loves me and settling beside me. I am proud of our journey and what we have accomplished. You are my handsome knight!!
Love you Strider!! ๐๐๐โค๏ธโฃ๏ธ
Super proud of Strider and his accomplishments for the small amount of time he gets to practice. As of today, he is ranked 229 in Big Air out of 1019. He is doing great in Speed Retrieve with an average of 6.086 seconds, ranked 55 out of 355 teams. He is ranked 58th in Iron Dog and 81st in Extreme Vertical. You might even say he is obsessed with the sport of DockDogs and all its disciplines.
This year he has also earned his NADD Dock Masters title and NADD Air Retrieve Masters title. ๐๐

Strider wanted to share some photos of his DockDogs competition at Scheels in Overland Park, KS. He did well placing 4th overall in both Speed Retrieve and EV. I choked in SR and cost us a better time. I was disappointed in our EV and some distractions during the event.
Most events a 20' 11" jump would have gotten us into SemiPro finals but not this time. He played hard and held his own among good competition that is all I ask. He loves this venue and it has been good to us over the years. He was sad Cindy left him though.
Strider wants to give a big shout out to his little sister Fancy and how well she did all weekend!! He also wants it known Fancy is a toy pig and attention hog!!๐คญ๐คซ Really, he is super proud of her and happy she has joined his team.๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ

AND a cheeseburger!!๐
Once mom received and forwarded the paperwork to AKC, I will have three titles to my name. Bet you didnโt expect a Wonky-Eared guy to be so successful!!!!๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ It is all just play to me!!

This weekend Strider completed the requirements for his NADD (& AKC) Dock Master title. In addition, he got a NADD personal best of 23 feet!! He loves all aspects of dock diving and I'm proud of our accomplishments.โค๏ธ
Strider did Air Retrieve both days receiving 2 Master legs giving him an overall total of 4 Master legs. He needs just one more leg to get his AR title.
Thank you Dallas Air Dogs for putting on a nice trial. Special thanks to those who worked the trial as I know they are exhausted. We appreciate you and your work!!
I did a great job today at DAD (Dallas Air Dogs)!! Mom said so and shared prime rib with me!!๐ฅฉ I tied my personal best in Air Retrieve with a 19 ft. Grab!!๐ฅณ This is my 3rd AR Mastersโ leg!!๐ฅณ
I added 2 Master legs in jumping with a 22โ 9โ and 22โ!!!! I picked this video taken my friend Vonda because you can hear Bohemian Rhapsody playing in the background!!
My handler (aka Mom) & I are going to DAD today and tomorrow!! I get to jump and do Air Retrieve!!
Wish me luck & good weather!!
Fans!! I am super proud to announce I have a new little sister ... Fancy!! I gave 4 paws up๐พ๐พ on her staying with us!! I love her most of the time!!๐ฅฐ๐ She watched and studied my great form and now she dock dives!!
Fancy comes from American Belgian Malinois Rescue. She needed a forever home just like I did. Many great Mals out there are waiting in rescue for someone to adopt them and give them a chance to work or play hard!!

Team Strider did well this weekend!! Strider has begun hitting his stride!!๐ We had our best performance in Iron Dog this year. However, his occasional hard-headed stubbornness has cost us points the last 2 events. I actually had to take him off the dock during an EV turn.๐คฆโโ๏ธ Love him anyway!!๐๐

My mom, umm I mean handler, says we need to be able to laugh at ourselves and find humor in tough situations.๐ So I found it really humorous when mom fell in today off the ramp.๐๐คฃ๐ I mean thatโs what she gets for working with another dog!!!!๐๐
