Lucy was born in Boerne, TX. Her daddy won Westminster but she wasn't destined for the conformation ring. She was shy and not trusting of strange people. The woman who looked at her before me spent an hour trying to interact with her -- Lucy wouldn't have anything to do with her! I walked in the door a week later, just to look, and Lucy was falling all over herself trying to get my attention. When I walked out the door, she ran around outside the house to find me. I couldn't leave her there! We did agility first, then obedience. Then, in late October, 2004 I found flyball. Lucy loves to jump and loves tennis balls more than life itself -- it was a perfect match! I took a box home to my basement and started getting Lucy used to it. I had no idea what I was doing but Lucy is smart enough for the both of us and by December 2004 we were doing our first practice runs in a tournament. She got her first 2 titles in January 2005 and each subsequent tournament has been her best ever. She earned her FM in August 2006 and jumped to the 26th Standard Poodle in flyball, then her ONYX in October of 2007, making her only the 6th Standard Poodle to earn this title. She is currently the #2 Standard Poodle, soon to be #1! Her fastest time so far is 4.6, but I know from watching her around the house and in agility, she has a lot more speed to give. Flyball has been great for her and I can't wait to see what she'll do next!
