I'm In The:
Dogster's 2007 Holiday Picture Party!

Quick Bio:
-purebred

Likes:
I love Agility. Paws down that is my favorite thing!

Pet-Peeves:
I really don't like going to the vet

Favorite Toy:
My favorite toy is a blue rubber frisbee (K9 Flyer) - but I also love fleece tuggy toys.

Favorite Food:
I like Raw Meaty Bones - chicken feet and turkey necks are my personal favorite.

Favorite Walk:
I like to go on the trail to the park. Sometimes though we go out to the beach and that is the COOLEST place to walk!

Best Tricks:
Way to many to list!! Some of people's favorites are Rolling up in a Blanket, Opening-getting in-and Closing my crate, Limping, Skateboarding, lifting my leg like a boy dog, doing handstands, and of course agility!

Arrival Story:
My Mommy came and saw me as a wee pup and out of all the other puppies she had ever seen she knew that I was the one. The only problem was that another person liked me too. The other person had "first dibs" on my litter but in the end the person chose one of my sisters instead. My soon to be Mommy was so happy! She came to see me again and took a bunch of pictures and then (at last!) a few weeks later, a bunch of people came with their Border Collies and they all moved around 3 sheep (they called it a Herding Trial) and thats when my Mommy came and picked me up. We watched a lot of the trial and then drove for a long long long long time (stopping at PETsMART for a new collar) then we were HOME!

Bio:
I do Agility, Obedience, Disc-Doggin' and just lots of plain ol' tricks! Agility is definitely my main focus. I compete at the Elite level of NADAC agility and went to the Championships in 2007 and have qualified for the 2008 Championships as well. I also compete in USDAA and plan to start competing in CPE and ASCA later this year.

WARNING:
If you look at my pictures/videos and decide that you want a Border Collie - this warning is for you. We are a very high maintenance breed. We require lots of physical (not just your average walk to the park) stimulation and MENTAL stimulation. If our exercise needs are not met we can become very destructive - constant barking, digging, chewing, begging, nipping, completely redecorating your house, or worse. I am very highly trained and my Mom spends hours a day working with me. So please, think twice before considering a Border Collie.

Where do I train?:
I train agility at Vortex Agility (with Sandra Katzen) as well as some lessons with Andrea Dexter.

I have my very own Websites!:
Be sure to stop by my Blog and my Mommy's website!

My Quirks:
I do little woofing sounds instead of barks!

I get to be on a DAM Team!


May 17th 2008 12:51 pm   [link to this entry]

Mommy just decided that we are going to the USDAA Northwest Regional! How Super-Cool is that?! I am going to be on a DAM team (Dog Agility Masters) for the fist time too. I get to be on a team with Taiko, a cute little border collie. We are still trying to find out who our third team member will be...

Hopefully my Mom will be able to run okay at the regionals. She tore her ACL awhile ago and had to have surgery. Ouch! I miss running agility like we used to but hopefully we can run by then!

I am also entered in an agility Sweetheart contest. You can give me a vote here if you'd like!
