Brags & Results 2010
Our apologies !!! As you
can see ... we are far behind on updating this page. We have
just been so darn busy having great classes, with great students and
spending time with our amazing dogs.
It's much more fun to spend time with the dogs than to be working on
the computer. Wouldn't you agree ? Hopefully this page
will start looking more " up to date " once the fall weather hits
us.

"Wiley"
Stonepoint Wile E Super Genius CGN RN AGN AGNJ
Super genius indeed! Probably the smartest
Weimeraner in our area, this young dog was handled by Rhonda Stickle to
some great accomplishments. It is a joy to watch the attention
and focus that Wiley gives to her owner Rhonda. Wiley has an
exceptional response to hand signals and often impresses her
onlookers at trials.
Watch out for Wiley and Rhonda in a ring near
you!

"Eve"
Cheynat's She's Everything, CGN RN AGN AGNJ
Owned and
Handled by Jessica Schacherl.
This
tri coloured Australian Shepherd received three qualifying rounds
and her AGNJ title her very first agility trial ever, on her first
weekend out competing at dog shows.
While Eve has a very
stubborn and independant streak to her personality, Jessica did a
wonderful job training and handling this dog to win all four
perfomance titles in just a few shows over the course of only two
months of competition.
Jessica also showed Eve to win 9 of the 10 points needed to
be a CKC Conformation Champion, including a few Best Of Breed wins
– all owner/handler groomed and shown.

Illusion, CGN RN
This
young blue merle Australian Shepherd was trained and handled by
Jessica Schacherl to receive his CGN and RN titles as a Jr.
Puppy.
Puzzle also competed in formal obedience and received one leg
towards his PCD title.
Groomed and shown by his owner, Puzzle also finished and
received his CKC Canadian Championship as a Sr. Puppy.
Watch out for this handsome boy in the Obedience and Agility rings
this summer, as more titles are imminent and expected.

"Uno"
Cheynat's Smiling Sweetheart, CGN RN AGN AGNJ
Robert Hall did a great job handling this very happy tri
coloured Australian Shepherd to all four performance titles. These
titles were also earned over a very short two month time frame, with
very limited showing. During the Rally Obedience trials in
Kingston, the judge remarked to Robert that he was the most patient
handler she had seen in a long time. Robert and Uno received
ribbon and scoring placments in the top four at their first ever
Rally competitions.
Congrats to Robert and Uno !

"Ginger"
Owned and handled by Shirley Beere, this young spitfire showed real
potential for agility while attending our Jr. Puppy Kindergarten
class.
Shirley has done an excellent job training this very social little
Shih Tzu and has earned her Starters title in AAC agility.
This is further evidence that Shih Tzus are not
merely a lap dog, but can also have great drive and athletic
ability....although the occasional visitation of a ring steward may
be necessary during an agility run, but that's just to prove how
well socialized they are.
Way to go Shirley and Ginger!

off her second place ribbon won at the

Syrie

all graduating classes for the day.
Keep
up the good work !

Nessa
also has a few qualifying rounds towards her intermediate agility
titles and will be back out to finish those next summer.
Way to go ladies !

"Ceilidh"
Donpets
Vision Of Love CGN AGNS AGNJS AGIS AGIJS AGXS AGXJS
Ceilidh was
Adrienne's first agility dog. This very happy team were able to achieve both their AGNS & AGNJS titles in their
first three weekends of trials during their first summer of
competition. Their plan was to achieve a higher level of
agility titles each year, a steady approach to competition. By
the end of their third summer in 2008 Ceilidh had achieved both her
excellent level titles. In 2009 this duo planned on working
towards their Master Excellent title. Sadly this was not to
be, as Ceilidh's life came to a sudden and unexpected end in March
2009.
Congratulations to Adrienne on her accomplishments
with this very happy little sheltie...we will all miss her very
much.

Hoodwink
Herdabout Wee Seamus CGN AGN AGNJ
Owned and loved by
Eric & Sarah,
trained and handled by Adrienne.
At just 13 & 3/4
inches tall,
Seamus
is a very fast
little sheltie that just loves agility. He also has a sweet and
bubbly personality showing great potential for a therapy dog.
Just barely old enough to compete, Seamus earned his Agility Novice
title his first weekend out competing at his first agility trials.
We look forward to seeing more titles on this cuddly young dog in
2009

"Colby"
Kincardine's Cassiopeia AGN AGNJ AGNS AGNJS AGIJS TPOC
Lorraine Sanford and
her talented Colby - Kincardine Cassiopeia - win first place in
their agility class at their first trial despite the frightful
weather.
Colby, who is
closing in on 9 years old, certainly doesn't look her age in this
action shot . Colby has the ability to work away from her handler at
great distances and just rips up the turf!
Congratulations
Lorraine -you've done a beautiful job training this lovely lady.

"Scandal"
Herdabout Thru
The Grapevine CGN RN
A full sister to our
Herdabout The Whole Shebang CGN RN (Shebang), Scandal is an amazing
little sheltie that will be burning up the agility rings in July of
2009 as she will finally turn 18 months of age and be old enough to
start competing in agility. Her handler and trainer, 13 year
old Rebecca, has done an amazing job with the potential "superstar",
having earned her Canine Good Neighbour and her Rally Novice title
at just 7 months of age. The focus, drive, intensity and
loyalty of this young dog is astounding to watch.
Keep up the good
work Rebecca!!
