High Flyers - 4th in Europe
Hi Ceri
Belgium was an absolute blast......and we came an amazing 4th, making us 4th in Europe.
The European teams are phenomenal, regularly running at low to mid 16 seconds. It took us a couple of days to settle and get used to their racing format as in the UK we don't do speed trials or double elimination.
We were up against Black Brains 1 who had clocked a sub 17 time in the speed trials, they were also previous European Champions. We really thought that they would beat us, so were absolutely delighted to win 3-0 and consistantly run above 17:28 in temperatures up to 28 degrees.
We lost to Lucky Jumpers, who were also previous years champions, 1-3 but we pushed them very hard and received a tremendous applause from the team an crowd. The Jumpers, who were the eventual winners, came to speak with us before we left and have asked us to go back and compete in their tournament in October.
Our dogs ran brilliantly over the 3 days, their fitness and health really showing as the racing was hard and the weather was too hot ( I hate saying that as we normally complain it's too cold!!!) Their recovery time and stamina were excellent, this being evident in their last race of the day against the Jumpers they hit 17:21 seconds!!
The help we have received from yourself and the CSJ team has been invaluable and the CSJ food and herbs have had such a positive impact on our dogs....they just look so happy and healthy be it racing their hardest or just laying relaxing at home.
Thank You all.
I have attached some photos that were taken in Belgium at the European Championships, hopefully you will see what a great time we had. As you can see, it's not all racing!
(There are some already on the European Flyball Championship website (www.erc.be)).
Again many thanks

I won't do that again!!
Hi Ceri,
I thought I would email to let you know I've just put another order through. A friend bought our last bag so we haven't ordered for ourselves for a while.
The reason I am emailing is that we chose to try a bag of biscuits which were not CSJ and were from a local store. I am amazed at the difference in my dog's coat, health and smell (both fur and breath)!
When she was on the CSJ biscuits (probably for the last couple of years), people used to comment on how shiny her fur was. Her stools were always easy to pick up and her teeth were white. She's had ONE BAG (15kg) of different biscuits and her fur is dull and shedding. Her teeth are starting to go brown and she smells like an old dog. I am amazed as she's only 4 years old. I'm just hoping that some of the effects of the last lot of biscuits will be reversible with the CSJ!!
Have other people told you of such a big difference with biscuits? It really does appear that the poor biscuits have aged her! She's even sleeping more and for a border collie you'll know that's unusual in a young dog! It's very strange in such a short period of time. What on earth do these companies use to make them??!
Regards,
Debbie B.
