REM’s mother (Chime ONYX)  and father (Lynda Verna’s Timber ONYX) were both flyball dogs.  REM was born knowing how to do a swimmers turn.

REM is a very sweet cuddly dog.  He is very honest in his work and play.  He puts his whole mind and body into everything he does.  Most of his flyball career he has been a consistent start dog with many perfect starts under his collar.  However, when he gets home he can settle down very well and is a terrific housepet and playmate for my son and his friends.

Sidelined by an injury in August of 2004, I hope to have him back up and playing for the 2005 flyball season. In the meantime he will cheer on his kids as they play.  Go Flare, Go Rev, Go Lightning (on PDQ Dogsports),
