The Hungarian Pumi Club held FastCAT this past weekend in Stillwater. Olivia, Nelson, and I ran on Friday and Saturday. We ran at their event last year in July too. Thankfully the weather was fairly cool which helps us run a bit better. No one in the family set any personal records but we were all faster than our last FastCAT weekend that was uphill.
I had a bit of a glitch. Our releaser was not with us so we had the clubs guy release us. Mom leaves us with him when it is almost our turn and she runs to the other end to catch us. Well, I didn’t like this guy releasing me, so I squirmed out of my collar and took off. I didn’t want to run away, I just wanted to go to my mom. She grabbed me and returned me to the man. It was my last run of the weekend, and also my slowest. Since I had just run to my mom, I was not really well rested. Still I got lots of points towards my FCAT2 Title.
Olivia was the fastest of the three of us as always. She is a true sports dog. Lately she has started to grab the lure after her run ends. Mom says she can as long as she doesn’t damage it.
Nelson takes everything pretty seriously. Since he can be a serious guy, Mom took his photo in the scoring tent with the silly palm tree and flamingo. He had four nice runs and has now started using his hunting call when he runs like Olivia does.
Each day we had two runs a piece, no NQ’s or injuries, thankfully. We came home with twelve Q ribbons from the Hungarian Pumi Club. The weather was pretty windy making photos pretty much impossible. Instead, we took a photo of one ribbon to show it to you. We are all entered in more FastCAT in mid-August and rumor has it some titles may be earned that weekend. Running is a lot of fun and we all enjoy it!

Congratulations to the three of you! We’re so happy the flamingo left you alone and didn’t try to sniff you, Nelson☺
That was a crazy thing and I was not really sure about sitting so close to it.
Glad all of you had a good weekend.
It was busy, but lots of fun.
How grownup of Nelson!
He has his moments.
What a fun weekend. I know you all love it and so does mom. A huge Awww.
Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. Scritches all around and my best to your mom. ♥
It was fun and we are all tired after we finish, including Mom as she runs more than we do, LOL!
I think it is so so sweet that you wanted to run to your mom. You couldn’t ask her about a puppy.
Last night Mom realized we always have a woman releaser, or we have had a little boy. I guess we are not comfortable being left with a strange guy!
Well one thing for sure YOU LOVE WHO YOU love and that is YOUR MOM.
Nelson you might be serious in that is a seriously funny photo

Nelson be very serious but also a total goofball! I do love my mom and I was not happy about being left with a strange man, so I figured out how to leave and find my mom.
A busy weekend! You learned things about yourself and the releaser (no guys!) Olivia caught the lure!! and Nelson found his silly side! Great post. your friends Lilly and Chester
It was a real mix of a weekend as we also drove up north for Nelsons nose work trial Sunday.
Congratulations team!
Thank you.

It was a super busy but fun weekend. Only Bailie stayed home and put her paws up for a few days.
Concats on your ribbon!
We watched a corgi race this weekend; they sure are hilarious to watch as their short little legs take ’em all over the place…definitely NOT to where they were supposed to go!
Oops! Madison is short, but tall in comparison to a Corgi.
Typical cat ! They call the run FastCAT and let you dogs run ! You should protest or let the cats run ! Or you run both together !
We could chase cats. That would be fun!
Sounds like a great day of competing!!
We are suppose to tell you that your state is BEAUTIFUL, Mama keeps saying how she has never seen so much shoreline in a state that has no oceans(we think she means you have lots of lakes)! Hopefully next time the pawrents will take us with them!
xoxo,
Rosy and Sunny
We have over 11,000 lakes and the most boats of any state, even more than Florida! Glad your parents had a nice time and pretty good weather.
Wow Olivia was quite speedy! Great photos!
Hooray for running! I am glad you all have so much fun.
We love to run but we don’t love a man releaser so much. Actually, Nelson doesn’t care, but we girls are not a fan.
Hooray for lots of ribbons and a fun day sweet ones!
Lots of points is a good thing.
