We started in the sport in 2006 after I adopted Brook from East Tennessee Border Collie Rescue in February. Two weeks after I adopted her we competed for the first time in Florida in the Hot Zone Qualifier for the ESPN Great Outdoor Games. We did not qualify in that event but continued to compete throughout 2006.
Our first win came in Chicago 2006 at the UFO event in Naperville, IL. We have competed ever since at the majority of the largest disc dog events held.

Brook and I started in the sport in 2006 When I adopted her from East TN Border Collie Rescue. It became apparent immediately that she was going to specialize in Distance/Accuracy. Since that time we have had more fun than I could have ever imagined and more success than I could have dreamed of. In 2008 I added another rescue to the pack, Charlie. She and I are working on the sport of Freestyle together and having a grand time.
