Live Wires conquer the UK and Britain...
Live Wires flyball team are still on cloud nine after in the last three weeks becoming the UK record holders with a time of 16.37 seconds in Anglesey and then adding the British title at this year's BFA Championships competition on 21st August at the Arbury Estate near Nuneaton.
Over the 3 days of the BFA competition roughly 250 teams, from all over the UK took part.
The Division 1 final in which the 6 fastest teams competed against each other in a round robin was eagerly anticipated with some of the Division 1 teams having achieved record breaking times already this year. Also vying for the title again were previous Champions from the last 5 years.
It turned out to be a hugely exciting day with the outcome not known until the final nail-biting race….. any of 4 teams could have won. By this stage the fledgling Live Wires team had done all they could, winning 4 out of 5 of their races and hoping that the result of the last race would put them at the top.
With a gutsy effort (with one dog less and two handlers with painful knee injuries over the last two races) they did it against all the odds and were ecstatic.
Team captain Anne Alcock says, "In the last 5 years our tally in Division 1 at the British Championships is Champions in 2007 and 2011 and 2nd place in 2008 and 2010.
Having become the UK record holders in Anglesey and with the British title to our name as well we couldn't have asked for more!
It is thanks to CSJ's fantastic products that have boosted our team dogs' health and fitness, to enable Live Wires to be competitive - and successful - at the highest level.”

I can't 'Get Over!' the difference these herbs have made
Hi - I just want to say that we are amazed by your "Get Over" product. We have 2 St Bernards - one is perfect in terms of mobility (in fact I'm sure he thinks he's a Springer!!) but our biggest boy has really suffered due to his huge size and long legs.
We were actually resigned to putting him through a major operation to see if we could replace his hips. He has everything money can buy but it's no use if his quality of life is reduced.
Anyway - THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !!! Your herbs have given us our boy back - although far from perfect - he is wanting to play and go for walks - and can actually manage to go all around the block without lying down to rest half way. His coat is better and he seems to improve every day (He's only been on them 5 weeks !) He is happier and bouncier and his pal has got his playmate back.
I can't believe the difference your products have made and recommend them to EVERYONE with a dog.
Thank you again! from Sarah, Rob & Bentley & Baxter.
