About the dogs

 Banner with trophies

St☆r Sp☆ngled B☆nner is a red-tri Baussie, with lots of drive and physical talent, and a big personality to match.  Banner has competed all over the USA,  in World Championship events in Europe and North America and she has won several State Championships here in Colorado.

We don’t know how it happened, but Banner has reached retirement age for playing frisbee. This transition is always hard for both the dogs and the humans, as we love playing together so much and we don’t want to stop. We continue to play cautiously together, because we want our dogs to stay healthy and happy for the rest of their lives.  Banner is a super star in everything she does, and she recently started her second sport dog career – competing in canine scent work trials – and she is working on her NACSW Nose Work 3 and element titles!

Djinn with sacrifice

Blue Djinn Dragon is a blue heeler mix who came to us from Mountain Pet Rescue.  His young mother and her litter of 9 puppies were found under a house just before a big winter storm, and we are so glad they were rescued just in time by some wonderful people!  We were lucky enough to meet him as a puppy and immediately fell in love. Djinn has grown into an amazing dog and he apparently has decided that being a frisbee superstar is a good life for him. He loves flying through the air, catching frisbees, and destroying them – and he is great at all three!

Djinn has performed for the Broncos, Rockies, Outlaws, Nuggets and many others, and he has joined Banner, Banzai and Rider in the list of FLYNDOGS who have won Colorado State Championships!  He also recently started competing in canine scent work, and has earned his NACSW Nose Work 2 title!

    Hella skying for the disc

Hella came to us as a rescue from a shelter in Iowa, through a friend.  Hella is a black-tri Aussie with intensity to spare and she has a natural talent for leaping high and catching all. the. things. 

Hella’s unique and flashy style has earned her trips to world finals events, and a special place as a headliner for our FLYNDOG shows. She is the fastest dog on our team, and has no trouble racing out to catch 80 to 90 yard throws.

She consistently places in the top 10 in the Colorado state frisbee dog championship series, and she’s a super fun dog to play and compete with.  In her down time, Hella loves hiking, hanging out on the sofa with her humans and riding in the car, just in case we go someplace fun!

A dog and his boy

Archer is a handsome black-tri Aussie boy who came to us through Western Australian Shepherd Rescue, and he has decided the frisbee dog life is the life for him!

Archer gets teased a lot by his buddies because of his stunning good looks, but they are just jealous, because this boy is the total package!  His nicknames include El Guapo, Fabio, and the Handsomest Frisbee Dog in the World.

Archer is a fantastic frisbee dog, he particularly loves freestyle, with its quick pace, multiple discs and fancy moves.  He is a treasure to have in our lives, he is easy to live with and he is an absolute clown at home, he keeps us laughing!

Falcon is the newest addition to team FLYNDOGS.  She is a herdy-mixy-mix and is showing signs of real talent for disc play!  Her competitive and performance disc career were put on hold during the first year of the pandemic, but she has jumped in with all 4 feet, with two NFL halftimes under her collar and a top-10 finish in the Colorado State Championship series!

Falcon is also a very talented canine scent work competitor, and she has joined Banner and Djinn in the list of FLYNDOGS who have earned their NACSW Nose Work 2 title!

Banzai-trophy-thumb

Banzai is a Border Collie/ Cattle Dog mix. She is a 3-time State Freestyle Champion and a 10-time World Finalist. She is a UFO European Throw & Catch Champion and UFO World Cup Long Distance Champion.  She has performed in hundreds of shows all over Colorado, the USA and the world. Her passport includes Korea, Canada, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein and the Netherlands.

Banzai had a long and successful disc dog career and she is spending her retirement being spoiled by her humans and doing pretty much anything she wants. We recently celebrated her 18th birthday, and we are so grateful for her long and happy life, and all the fun and joy we have shared with her over the years!

Dharmasmall

Dharma is a red & white Baussie with an extensive repertoire of cool tricks.  She is retired from performance now and enjoying her life of leisure.  She enjoys pestering Banzai, eating pizza and doing tricks for treats.

In her spare time, there is nothing Dharma likes better than chasing squirrels and barking at them once they are treed.  She also loves to hike and wrestle with her packmates.

Of course, we would be terribly remiss not to mention the MANY talented dogs and humans who have helped us out over the years!  We couldn’t have done it without you.  For fear of forgetting someone, we will not list names, but know that your contributions have helped us grow and we treasure the fun times we’ve had with all of you!
