These pups took us on yet another grand adventure! Brian, Jenny, Limoncello, Hooch, and Rita have never been outside of the United States, so we were super excited! Canada is the 5th country Lager has been to!!
This event was a competition for a chance to earn an invitation to the 2016 DockDogs World Championship this November in Dubuque, Iowa! This was SUCH a fun event at a great location! The Liver Killers did amazing! Cello, Hooch, and Lager ALL earned not one, but TWO invites to the DockDogs World Championship… that’s an invite for every discipline we competed in!! So proud of these pups!
The road trip to our destination in Bowmanville, Ontario was very exciting!
- Last U.S. exit!
- Getting ready to go over the Thousand Islands Bridge!
- Gorgeous!
- Waiting in line at Customs
One of the best things about this venue was that we could camp right there!

MARGARITA:
Rita enjoyed her first trip out of the country! She really came out of her shell and started to show a super-funny personality. She chased a drone, and jumped on our camper table to get a better view out the window! Thanks to a few of her “DockDogs Aunts,” she learned how to swim in the DockDogs pool, and found out that toys were super fun. She even got a massage by a certified equine/canine masseuse!

BRIAN:
There was even a Human Iron Dog event (all entry fees went to charity!!) … and Brian earned 3rd Place!
On the way home, there was a bit more of a line at Customs to wait to cross back over into the United States.
This trip was VERY exciting, and such an adventure. We are so proud of all of our fur-kids!
