Pilot, 2008 Region 5 MVP

Pilot, mix, CRN 990121

I would like to nominate Pilot of Top Dog Racers, for Region 5 MVP. Pilot has raced the entire 9+
years of his flyball career on Chain Reaction (Top Dog Racers’ A Team), running as the sole
height dog for a good portion of that time. Pilot changed the face of flyball in Region 5,
introducing the region to a small dog who could run in the 3.9’s and 4.0’s. He also changed the
“look” of flyball in Region 5 as one of the first Border Jack mixes in Texas. He has always been a
crowd pleaser, and it could often be heard when he was running, “… what kind of dog is that.”

With Pilot on the team, Top Dog Racers were able to achieve some amazing things such as
becoming 2002 NAFA Champions, breaking into the 16’s, and then the 15’s, and achieving a 1st
Place finish at the World Cynosports Championship in 2007! Pilot considered retirement when
he reached his 50,000 point mark, but decided he wasn’t quite ready to give up the excitement of
flyball competition yet.
