Dog and stickSticks, selfie sticks, frisbees – What do they all have in common?

Dogs like to fetch them! So it got me thinking, about record stick fetching achievements and sure enough, the Guinness World Record group has come to my calling. Introducing Davy Whippet (and Rob McLeod) who broke the Guinness World Record for the longest flying disc throw caught by a dog with a catch at 134 yards (402 feet). Surprisingly the pair are not dog and owner. The owner, Lara Sorensen, noticed her pup had a talent for catching, so she introduced Davy to champion frisbee thrower Rob McLeod…and the rest is now captured in Guinness book history.

Do you own an amazing pet?

    Wow, that’s pretty impressive. I can barely catch a ball from ten feet away.

  • Funny, but I’m curious — are you training your dog to grab selfie-sticks from others? Not that you would do anything but to make the world a better place… 😉

      Ah, you’ve caught me out! I guess it wasn’t hard to pick it based on my previous selfie posts

    This reminds me… I thought of a potentially good “selfie” stick joke… just haven’t been able to work it in anywhere. You keep poking us with the selfie stick jokes, and eventually it was bound to be catching! 🙂
