The four people in this puzzle all competed in different classes of dog agility at a recent competition. The competitions all required the dogs to run over jumps, through tunnels and various other obstacles in as quicker time as possible. Each had a different result - one came first, one third, one fourth and one ninth. All four dogs were each of a different breed.
Can you work out who handled which dog, at what level each competed, the place each finished in and the breed of each dog?
1. If Tiff finished first then Terry finished fourth. 2. If Terry finished fourth then Jago is a collie otherwise Jago is not a collie. 3. If Jane competed in the Senior class then she finished third. 4. If Jane competed in Novice then she finished fourth. 5. The dog that finished ninth was an alsatian. This was either Jago, in which case Jago competed in the Elementary class, or this was Kelly, in which case Terry handled Kelly. 6. Mark won Starters. 7. If Mark's dog is called Patti then Patti is a labrador otherwise Patti is a collie. 8. Ruth's dog is called Jago. 9. If Jago finished fourth then she competed in the Novice class otherwise she competed in the Senior class. 10. If Patti finished first then Terry's dog is an alsatian otherwise Terry's dog is a collie. 11. If Jane's dog is a doberman then Jane finished fourth otherwise Jane finished third.
Handler's Names: Jane, Mark, Ruth and Terry Dog's Names: Tiff, Patti, Jago and Kelly Breed: Alsatian, Collie, Labrador and Doberman Level: Starters, Elementary, Novice or Senior

did you make this up or did you get it somewhere else? I love these kinds of puzzles! Like in Harry Potter! "It's not magic, it's logic!"

reminds me of Itsy's puzzle of houses , and smokes, and drinks, and pets. Now if I could only remember how I figured that one out. But right now I have to go to my daughter's first b-ball game of the season. She's itsy bitsy too(doesn't get it from me though) I think she got it from lyme and leaky gut-but anyway-she can be fierce, and quick. She plays point guard.

I got this puzzle from a website; I'll post the link once a few people have figured it out. :-)

Well, I have thrown in the towel for this evening's activities-too wet, and too cold for me to venture out . Soooo I will be able to work on this puzzle. But before I do- I must tell you about yesterday's basketball game. Setting the stage: My daughter, Carolyn is the shrimp on the team at 5'2" , I know , still heads above our beloved ItsyBitsy. The other team walked into the gym, and I swear, #45 looked twice as tall as Carolyn. Very intimidating. But during warm ups it is apparent that this towering young lady has yet to grow into her height. Estimates put her at 6'3". No kidding. Dynamite at snagging rebounds, but otherwise a bit gangly in her play. Final minutes of the game, Carolyn goes in for a lay-up, but is fouled. Ball rolls around the rim and falls out. Carolyn gets two foul shots. Score ,before her shots , Delaware 24, Royals 23. Total quiet. First shot- up and in. Wooooohoooooo, score is 24/24. Screaming, hooting and hollering subside again, as Carolyn sets herself for the second shot-and it's up and IN ! Score -Delaware 24, Royals 25. Gym erupts with more whooping , hollering and foot stomping. 6 seconds left in the game, and Delaware Girl Who Plays on Stilts goes for a shot and is fouled. No basket, but 2 foul shots. As she sets up for first foul shot, this shameful mother, knowing the game is on the line for an inexperienced player can't resist and shouts "NO PRESSURE" And in case she didn't hear it the first time, I cup my hands around my mouth and shout it again. "NO PRESSURE" She misses her shots, Redeemer gets the ball and runs the last few seconds out. Final Score- Delaware 24- Royals 25 !!!!!! (am I going to burn in hell?) Cobby

LOL! Haku was a big basketball player in high school and college (the first time around); he's not tall, either ... but sometimes the tiny, quick players are the ones to watch. I don't think you'll burn in hell. :-) A kid's gotta learn to perform under pressure sometime, right? I love the second-by-second commentary; it has the same feel as the essay Stephen King wrote about his son's little league team. It really put the feel of the suspense right there on the page. Yeah on the win, too! Any luck on the puzzle? I've been working on Haku's, moving very slowly, and I decided it was time to post something exceptionally easy.

Haven't had time to sit down and chart it out yet- so please don't post the answer.
Haku's is too much work for me right now.

I'm still working on Haku's, as well ... I have a good idea, but I am having trouble pinpointing the specifics....

I have a friend that may possibly have this disease and I would like to become more knowledgable. I'm confused now-are you here to socialize or gather information for your "friend" ?

Both are good ... when they're genuine....
I'm done with the games. I have frozen Lemondrop's account and put approval restrictions on new memberships.
