Bogey "The Small Dog
Wonder"
This is Bogey's story.
Bogey was playing "dodge the car" in a neighborhood street when we happened
upon him. He had just effortlessly dodged an older pick-up when he
dared us to play chicken. I stopped the car, conceding the game of
chicken, and my wife Amy opened the passenger side door and grabbed a little
curled tail before it could run under our car. She yanked his little
butt into the car, and I got my first good look at him, boy has he a
cutie! Someone once remarked, after seeing Bogey, "It looks like a
Dachshund got hold of a Chocolate Lab," and that's probably the best
way to describe the little guy. He won our hearts then and has been a
family member ever since. Bogey's
strengths have to be his playful personality and his boundless energy.
He is always ready to play, be it with a disc, a ball, tug, wrestling, or
big dog harassing, Bogey is always ready! And he never loses at
anything, if you don't believe me, just ask him! Oddly enough,
catching discs came naturally to Bogey as we've never formally trained him
to catch discs. He just watched the other dogs play, and then one day
came to us and asked to play. Amazingly, he was able to do much of
what we working on with the other dogs. Because his body stature
doesn't lend itself well to disc play, Bogey was once described as the
jester of the disc dog world, "his legs are too short, he's ears too long,
and he always makes you laugh". Bogey is truly an anomaly in the disc
dog world. In
his travels, Bogey has won many awards and many more hearts. His
outgoing, yet cocky attitude, and playful personality appeal to almost
everyone he meets. And his disc skills ain't half bad either.
This winning combination, charm & disc catching skills, has launched Bogey
into the limelight on more than one occasion. He makes numerous TV
appearances each year, and performs at demos, shows and parties. When
Bogey is not performing, he is hanging with the other dogs in our family and
stealing their Nylabones and burying them for his later enjoyment. But
hey, that's our Bogey! He never forgets his roots.
