Weekend Wrap-up

Signafur has scoured the web and found a few incredible canines to include in the labor day weekend wrap-up. Among our list of noteworthy pooches is Freddie, the Jack Russell Jockey, from Gloucestershire. Nicknamed the Flaxey Flyer, Freddie is famous for his equestrian skills on the farm. Since a young age, this playful pup has hopped on Daisy, a 37 inch tall white horse and fearlessly ridden the environs of the farm.

In other news, we found Ringo, a black Russian Terrier skilled in the art of self defense. This rambunctious round-houser was recently featured on Japanese television displaying his kickboxing skills. Ringo's owner, also a martial arts enthusiast, taught his pet pup to kick and punch and pounce. Check out the kickboxing canine here.

Think that's impressive? Get a load of Tiger, America's Fastest Chihuahua, a ten pound powerhouse hailing from Bakersfield, California. Tiger proved his superior speed this weekend by sprinting down a 35-foot long track and taking home first place at the 2006 National Chihuahua Race at Petco Park.
