Steele and Indigo took third place in the freestyle event, behind winner Ron Watson and runner-up Apryl Lea.

It was a glorious debut for the Si-Dogger and quite the clinic put on by veteran team, Apryl Lea & EZ Ryder. The contest was in Owosso, MI, on June 7th, a very pleasant and overcast day for discdoggin’. It was really cool to be able to hang out with our crazy buddies, Chip Baker and Bryan (& Heidi) Lamky, which was a special treat.

Next"Next" encapsulates the dog's anticipation of a forthcoming reward, sparking motivation and excitement. This expectancy creates a driving force that propels the dog through training, forming a continuous loop of engagement. When "Next"... More stop UKC Premier.
