We race so we can raise vital funds for Wounded Heroes, supporting our veterans and their families.
Last year, thanks to your support, we raised over $35,000 — and this year we’re aiming even higher!
It’s State vs State – Flyball like you’ve never seen! Get ready for high-energy, fast-paced Flyball action — the ultimate relay race for dogs and their owners. Cheer on your state as they battle it out for the Wounded Heroes Cup!
What is Flyball?
Flyball is an adrenaline-packed dog sport where:
- Teams of four dogs race over hurdles
- Each dog triggers a spring-loaded box that launches a tennis ball
- The dog grabs the ball and sprints back while the next teammate takes off!
- It’s fast, fun, and guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your seat!
