Notable
Although Decaff won a Silver medal in 2003, she might be considered an underdog. She is a "shy dog" and Susan has worked very hard with her on confidence. Her success as an elite dog athlete can be attributed to Susan's philosophy that "any dog can be spectacular if you believe in them."
Quotable
"Once you've had a Buzz, you need a Decaff." Susan's dog Buzz, who competed in GOG in 2001 and 2002 was a very hyper and wired dog. Decaff has a calmer temperament, so her registered name is "No More Caffeine."
