| Why did you get involved in Frisbee? |
|
I personally got involved when Mark got Gabby and started playing with her instead of Shadow.
Poor Shadow wanted to play too so she had no choice but to play with me. Then her back legs
started to fail her and along came Ms. Cheyenne Rose. Shadow became a couch potato and played
with the kids and Cheyenne and I became a team.

|
| What do you and your dog love most about Frisbee? |
| Well, for Cheyenne it is chasing that plastic disc and |
|
being with Mom. For me it is being challenged by Cheyenne. I know she can do more
then I can throw at her so I do my best to learn new tricks to keep her interested.
As if she could ever be bored with frisbee.

| |
| What is your best Frisbee moment? |
|
There are two very important moments. First one is with
Cheyenne and that was placing 3rd in Thornton in the 2003 season. The
second one is with Shadow in Vail at the Purina Incredible Dog Challenge. We were
not invited so we had to "make the cut." Even though we didn't make the cut we
were a 1/2 point behind Mark & Gabby who did make the cut. This also was the
first free style Shadow and I had ever done.

|
| Do you have a most embarrassing Frisbee moment? |
|
Well, there have been many, but I think the worst one was in Chicago in 2003.
I was on the field doing our routine and bent down to pick up a frisbee and
kicked it with my foot by mistake. Definitely not good disc management!

|
| What are your Team's favorite tricks or treats? |
|
For me it is simple. A back vault. The look in her eyes when I bend down
and say "hup." She looks like you have just given her the world. Cheyenne loves to "fly"

|
| Have a fun fact or story about your team? |
|
Cheyenne loves to go in the car to take the kids to school
and then go pick them up. In between that time she sits patiently in the
huge picture window waiting for the tree sheep and the mail man to come. Tree
sheep are squirrels for those of you who didn't know that. Then when the mail man
comes she and Gabby run through our home made agility course to get to the
back yard. This consist of 3 bikes, 3 scooters, a five foot plastic alligator,
basketball hoop and various toys and a BarBQ. And that's just to get off
the back porch and into the yard.
