A small group of MAINEiacs traveled to Fitchburg, MA. this weekend for Weston Whirlwinds Mardi Gras Madness tournament...and it was madness for sure!  Two ring venue's are never a favorite of mine but our dogs took it all in stride. 

What the fuzz? took second place in open division with Bounce, Sassy, Leap & Lucy. Shilo played on Saturday but was not feeling well so Lucy stepped in to save the day!!!  Joey and Lucy did a fantastic job stepping up and running with the big dogs! Sassy and Bounce ran very consistent all weekend and had lots of fun in the lanes!! Congrats on the new FDX title for Lucy!!  Our little Leap also held it together in her first full time spot and earned her FDCH-S title!

Bring it! ran in Open with Sally, Taboo (from Dirty Dogs), Karmela, Bounce and Flossie!  This was a nice little team and I had fun running Bounce with them.  Karmela was awesome and seems to be back on track!  The star of our little team however was not a dog but a handler....WELCOME TO FLYBALL ANDY!!!  Andy got to run Sally all weekend, he did a great job...and he's hooked!!!  Flossie had some really great warm-ups until she decided Mardi Gras was not really her kind of scene.  We'll try again in Dover with Floss with the hopes that she more of Spring Fling kind of girl! Bring it! came home with a second place finish in our open division!

Both teams came home with new TUGGIE awards, ribbons and magnets...not to mention all the goodies from our welcome baskets!  I'm at flyball to play with my dogs and have fun with my friends but I'm not gonna lie...I LOVE FRILLS!!! Weston know how to do frills!!!

Another highlight of the weekend was all the great food!  From the new menu at the hotel restaurant to stopping at Cracker Barrel on the way home. YUM!!!

As always it was great to have our friends from FAME to race with too!!

Big Thanks to Lorraine from CMJ for running Shilo while his could still run.  She did a great job with him and still has her knees intact!!  Thanks to Michelle and Taboo...AKA Bear for running with us in open!!! One more BIG thanks to Anne from CMJ for boxloading for FUZZ!  An excellent job as always!!!
