Gusto ran a 3.751 at the Stampede Winter Warm-Up tournament in Hurricane, Utah February 24th. He ran with "gusto" and the fury of a category 5 hurricane. He is truly a force to be reckoned with!

He has clocked the fourth fastest time of all time for Mixed Breed dogs and is ranked as the seventh fastest dog of all time in singles racing. He has now posted the fastest official time of all of the Lickety Splits Flyball Team dogs.

First Dog to Earn
U-FLI™ Ace Plaque ...

Flora's Lady Eve Annelise "Anna", TFWC-I

This "little" 4 year old Danish Swedish Farmdog with a "big name" has maintained her outstanding record of earning racing points and titles by being the first dog to achieve the Ace Milestone Plaque and Top Flight World Class pin. (35,500 points). Anna has been the top point earning dog in U-FLI for the last 3 years. Thanks go to the rest of the Lickety Splits dogs and handlers who have supported her in becoming the first dog to earn this prestigious award.

Bruiser
Montwood's Born to Run (Bruiser), TFP-I, ONYX

February 8, 1998 - November 20, 2006

Bruiser trained more handlers than any other dog on the team. He was the backbone of the team and could always be counted upon to steady the green dogs. Bruiser raced from September 1, 2001 until July 9, 2006 (Wags for Wishes). He earned his ONYX on January 30, 2005 at Touch N Go's tournament in Logandale, NV.

Bruser was a true champion and no dog had more heart. We shall all miss this big brown clown very much.
