It’s been a hot 🔥 (pun intended) minute since we’ve updated on here. But we just finished up with our second UpDog trial with the theme being Welcome to the Jungle and wanted to brag on some fantastic dog and handler achievements.
We braved the heat this weekend and played both days in 90+ degree weather. We were sweaty, we were hot, we were dirty, and we were having a blast with our dogs and friends.
Thank you to all who came out and supported the only club in Oregon currently hosting UpDog events and can’t wait for the next one!

The UpDog fun match was an absolute success yesterday. It’s so fun to play with our dogs and learn new things, but ultimately the connection you build with your dog is the most special part.
Thank you to all who came out yesterday and participated. We can’t do this stuff without you.
Looking forward to the Barbie trial even more!
Thank you to one of our juniors who came out yesterday to play and also took pictures Peter Tae Meziere.

I know there are a lot of first time players planning to play at the April Barbie trial but are extra nervous because you don’t know the games.
This is a not-for-points FUN MATCH to help teach you the games or maybe you want to try out some new tactics in a low pressure environment!
Start time 8am. We will demo all four games. Frizgility, 4 way play, time warp and greedy. If you are playing with multiple dogs you will fill the form out for every dog.
Sign ups can be found on the link below!
Payment is due to the club PayPal ()as soon as you complete the form. Friends and family option ONLY PLEASE.

Registration for the Hey, Barbie! trial opens 7pm on Friday Feb 2nd.
We will be doing a slightly staggered registration to encourage local people to sign up and continue growing the sport of UpDog down south!
Those of you within a 75 mile radius of Salem Oregon will have a 20 minute head start on registration and then it’s open to everyone else. It’s just going to be an honor system since there is no real way for us to track if you’re within the radius.

Can’t wait to have you out! We are planning to have player packs, ribbons for each of the divisions, Photo Booth and a Barbie themed costume contest.
Questions? Post below or feel free to message myself, Jordyn or Fiona.

Check out this cool feature of our teammate Violet on the cover of their breed magazine!!
Her human, Shelly, wrote a nice column about playing disc with your dog.
We have a good variety of dogs that play disc on our club and we’re lucky enough to have two Belgian Sheepdogs. They are hard workers and so much fun to watch.
What breed(s) of dog do you play disc with?

Five dogs, three humans and a severely overpacked suburban made the trek up to Sultan, WA this weekend to play some UpDog at Evergreen Disc Clubs Discbusters event!
Many awards were earned for our group, strategies learned and best of all memories with our dogs and friends. We’re real excited for our April trial now!
Every chance you get to step to the line with your dog is a great day and should never be taken for granted.
Happy Halloween everyone!
