Olivia and I are super happy to be headed to the AKC FastCAT Invitational in December! This will be the second one ever. The top three fastest dogs in every breed receive an invitation. Invitations are based on the times are from the previous year, so 2020. Olivia is the fastest GBGV in 2020, I am the third fastest, so we both get to go and run!
Sometimes it is frustrating being a more rare breed, but with sports it is a blessing as we get to be first in so many things. Our names will be etched in history forever and we find that to be super cool. This year will be the second AKC FastCAT Invitational. Right now we are still numbers one and three for 2021, so we could go again next year, but we are taking it all one year at a time.
All of the top three dogs in each breed receive their own invitation per email for the event. Mine is above, Olivia’s is below. You can click here to see the list of all the dogs that are invited by breed.
We both love to run FastCAT, so it will be a lot of fun even if we only get to do a couple of runs.
The course is super fancy compared to what we are used to running. There will be a lot of media there, and fancy photographers too. Some of the really fast breeds will even get to be on TV, at least they were last year.
We are super excited for the experience and for a really fun road trip to a place we have never been before. Bailie has been to Florida several times and will be staying home. She really doesn’t want to do the drive and she isn’t fast enough to get an invitation, so it would be super boring for her.
It’s about two months away, but we will remind you closer to the time we go so you can follow along with us on this completely new adventure for all of us! Look out Orlando! We are headed your way for the AKC FastCAT Invitational!
My GBGV Life is happy, so we’re joining Comedy Plus for Happy Tuesday!
Wow – congratulations, girls, and how exciting for you! That’s a long trip and we’re sure that your mom will have fun stops along the way.
Mom has driven to Florida several times and Bailie has told us it is a very long trip, but we are looking forward to it. It is going to be a fun time!
Wahoo! Good going, super fast pups!
We need to practice our speed but FastCAT is about done for the year in this part of the country.
Well look at you girls! What a cool invitation. We can’t wait for your adventure!!!! your friend Lilly
It is going to be a lot of fun, we know it will.
oh my what a honor… and we hope you will have a super great time there… and you come back ast the fastest cats ever… ummm dogs..
We have pretty tough competition from the other breeds but we will enjoy the event no matter how it works out.
Way to go, pups! A trip to Florida in December will be an especially nice treat for your mom, won’t it? I mean, y’all live practically in the Arctic. Well, it’s a whole heap colder and snowier in Minnesota than in east Tennessee so it may as well be the Arctic. 🙂
And we get to drive through Tennessee so it will be good all around.
That is such exciting news! I am so happy for you both. We‘ll be rooting for you!
Thank you. We are super excited for the event and the trip.
We are so thrilled for you! We are also thrilled we get to finally meet you❣ XOXO Sparkle
We are so excited for all of it and finally to meet you. If we have snow before we leave, should be bring you some in a cooler?
How fun. I’m coming with you. Your mom makes sure we can come along. Thank her please.
