Cassi, Border Collie, CRN 020213
Cassi and Jessica started playing flyball together eight years ago. She was one of the first two dogs that
started D.E.O. Speedwaggin’ back when RUFF was the only Flyball club in Colorado. Flyball helped Cassi
overcome her shyness and find a way to compete and stay busy. Her very first tournament was in
Mesquite, Texas jumping 16 inches with a skeleton crew of three other dogs, five people and a borrowed
flyball box. This tournament got Cassi and Jessica hooked on flyball. They have been great role models
and wonderful additions to the sport of flyball in Colorado.
Throughout the years, Cassi has been a consistent start dog but also a dog that can run anywhere in the
line up. She has run on some of our region’s fastest teams, including the team that held the Region 19
speed record of 17.023 for the past two years. She also helped DEO Speedwaggin’ achieve Regional
Champions in 2006 and 2007. Currently, Cassi still enjoys competing with the Denver Speed Demons at the
age of ten. Although she does not run as much as she used to, she is a consistent Veteran still capable of
running 4.2s.
