What an amazing day this was with picture perfect weather - long overdo and we were so glad so many could attend!! We had some fun new challenges this time with some traditional games, too! Our fastest scent work team on their vehicle search was Patty and Glimmer (Dare/Spryte)! Our fastest speedy feet was Echo (Tex/Remedy)  at 10.5 years old! Fastest UKI inspired agility course was Tracy and River (Player/Lyric). Our quickest Time Warp inspired disc game was Brian and Drama (Hitman/Story). Our fastest scarfer was Cherry (Hops/Spryte) and our best catcher was Danny and Kaboom (ReCon/Shine). In our all paws on deck All Tricked Out, everyone was so impressive working together to complete their 15 tricks hand picked by Oliver. Our fastest team to complete trivia BINGO was Team 1, but our overall TEAM WINNERS for the 2026 Family Reunion was team 4!!!! 

And OMG that white elephant game had so many cliffhangers, blindsides, and laughter! 

Truly such a fun and wonderful day seeing everyone come together with the dogs that they love. We are so grateful to our wonderful puppy owners who have become such treasured members of our extended family. Can't wait til next year!
