Heptathlon world record holder Jackie Joyner-Kersee was at the 10th Incredible Dog Challenge to coach a fellow world record holder - albeit in a slightly different discipline. She was there to give Soaring Cindy a pep talk, or should that be 'pup' talk. Joyner-Kersee's personal best in the high jump is 1.86 metres, so she can still claim to be top dog over Cindy, whose world record stands at 1.68 metres. SOUNDBITE (English) "I'm coaching Cindy, the world record holder, in the high jump. She's going to be jumping over a replica of the St Louis arch and it's just exciting. I'm excited and I can't wait to give her tips on, to make her much better, because she's a greyhound. But she has all the power and I'm just glad to be here." SUPERCAPTION: Jackie Joyner-Kersee For all those canines getting a little hot under the collar, dog diving was the perfect antidote. The Jack Russell hurdle race always works the crowd into a frenzy and this year's race was no different. After a brief 'paws' at the start, the winner was Will. No fleas on him. The pole weave was another classic which separated the rottweilers from the poodles. In the final Teak edged out Pickle by a wet nose.   <저작권자(c)연합뉴스.무단전재-재배포금지> The 10th Annual Incredible Dog Challenge
