Vallejo--The Sonoma County Fair Splash Dog Challenge was a success for local flying puppy "Prince Andy".  On Friday Andy qualified for the "Open" Division by finishing 2nd in the Junior class with a jump of 14' 7".  On Saturday, 6 month old, Andy jumped 15' 3" to qualify for the "Open" Division Finals on Sunday against the best adult dogs in Northern California. Only the top 20 dogs qualify for the "Open Finals". 

The event director and splash dog founder, Tony Reed, commited to the people watching that he "had never seen such a young puppy that loved jumping and had no fear of the water like Andy".  Altho Andy is not jumping as far as the adult dogs in the "Open" class "YET" he loves the challenge. When he see's the dock, the other dogs and the people cheering, he wants to show off, he wants to jump! He knows when it's show time. 

On Sunday Andy seemed to know he was on center stage and he was sky high for the event, we couldn't get him to calm down, but he still finished in 10 place over all with a jump of 14' 4" against some of the biggest jumpers in Northern California and Naveda. 

Next up is the Super Retriever Series in Reno, NV August 8 - 12, 2007.
