It was obvious that he
thought the faster he could get into the water the faster he would be grabbing
the toy, swimming back and doing it over again. After only a few more
competitions did he realize how much fun it was to fly through the air.
Colby, aka Colbs, Colb-a-saurus Rex, Cheese Nip
Colby started diving at the same competition
as Parker, which resulted in jumps of around
8'. It was obvious that he
thought the faster he could get into the water the faster he would be grabbing
the toy, swimming back and doing it over again. After only a few more
competitions did he realize how much fun it was to fly through the air.
Dock diving has done wonders for Colby. He is a super dog at home,
never getting into trouble and has lost extra fat which turned into muscle.
He transforms into a crazy dog at events, jumping up there with the
"big boys" of the sport. 
For CatchIt! his personal best is 41 feet 1 inch. His personal best to date
for distance is 25 feet 9 inches and
holds the following titles: Ultimate Air Dogs (UAD) novice, junior, senior, master,
and ultimate titles; Dock Dogs (DD) junior, senior , master and elite titles.
