Great Mutt & Rescue Dog Show!
May 17, 2003 - We had a great time at Jolly Cackle Farm, Locust, NJ on Saturday May 17th.   I was   invited to perform a canine Frisbee demonstration again this year. Last year after my demo I was even invited to take a dip in the lovely in-ground pool with some other dogs. This year it was too cold!  Click here to see pictures.

Dogs participated in games, agility contests and there were prizes for numerous categories including Best Kisser, Best Catcher and Highest Jumper. The event was a fund raiser for the Monmouth County SPCA and proceeds will benefit homeless animals at the Monmouth County SPCA.

I even met Boo, a very cute, 5 year old Black Lab who played Frisbee, and invited her to our canine disc competition on September 13th. I hope to see you then Boo!

Cedar Grove Elementary Dog Day Afternoon
May 7th, 2003 my friend Bear (Bear's an Australian Shepherd...or Aussie for short) and I performed frisbeedog demonstrations at the Dog Day Afternoon celebration at Cedar Grove Elementary School in Toms River, NJ.   Some of the Cedar Grove students had a chance to throw Frisbees for us. They were pretty good Frisbee tossers! We had a great time and everyone was very nice to us. Bear and I had ample opportunity to mingle with the students.

Trailside Nature and Science Center Pet Show
May 4, 2003 - After the Bronx competition (see above) was over, we made a mad dash to Trailside Nature and Science Center in Mountainside NJ where we joined some more Frisbee dogs and performed a canine Frisbee demo at the annual Pet Fair. Joan Lowell Smith's column in the Accent section of the Star Ledger newspaper on Sunday May 18th had a nice review of the event. ....even if she did call me Ruby and refer to me as she! The column even had a picture of me wearing my Doggles.

My site was chosen one of the three best of 2002
The Jan 2nd edition of the triCity News had an article by Jake James in which he listed the three best sites (without nudity) that he reviewed in 2002. Good thing Ihave my collar on at all times in the pictures of me on my web site. Want to see the article Jake wrote?

My Visit to Sunrise Assisted Living - Lincroft
Thursday, December 27, 2002 - Today I paid a Therapy Dog visit at Sunrise Assisted Living in Lincroft, NJ. What a nice place! I visited a lot of the residents who were all so very nice to me. Well all except for Oscar the cat. He had just gone outside before I arrived and just stared daggers at me through the glass door. I don't think he was too happy to see me. I don't understand why not?!? I get along just fine with Ralph, our cat.   I'm hoping to go back again this week.

Middletown South Eagles win Federal Conference title
Friday November 1, 2002 - the Middletown South Eagles High School football team clinched a conference title with their sixth win in a row for their 12th title in sixteen years. They beat Pinelands Regional by a score of 26 - 13. Pinelands entered the game with a 5-1 record. Do you think it's a coincidence that the Eagles have won every game in the past two years when I have performed a half time frisbee demonstration? I've only missed performing at one game..... and the Eagles, although they won statistically, lost that game ....their first game of the year, this year. I take full responsibility for not being there!

New York State (Human) Frisbee Championships
Sunday October 6, 2002 - the New York State Frisbee Championships were held as part of Warwick, New York's annual Apple Fest. It was a freestyle competition for humans not dogs.... can you imagine that? I was looking forward to seeing a human run and catch a frisbee in it's mouth, but that isn't what they do. I'm going to add a page to my site with some pictures so stay tuned. I attended with my canine frisbee friend Jewel to perform some canine frisbee demos in between the human competitors' performances. It was a lot of fun and the fans seemed to really enjoy it.
