Jake has a new agility handler
Viviene Scott is going to start training Jake in agility again and run him in trials. I’m sure they will make a great team and I think we will be seeing Jake at Regionals this year!
Sledding Fun
Last Sunday there was finally enough snow to try my new sled. Jake and Roo are old pros and I tried hooking up Razzle for the first time. She started off well, but then slipped her collar twice. Back in the house to tighten things up and out for a second try with just Jake. She did very well the second time and think she will catch on quickly to this new sport. Fixx had her first try in December and seems to be a natural. I look forward to getting one out again this weekend on our farm trails.
Morningstar January 2nd Agility Trial
Roo and Fixx had a good start to 2009.
Fixx back from an injury in the summer finished off her Advanced Agility Dog of Canada Title and can now run full time in Master’s with her sister Roo. Fixx also earned 2 Steeplechase legs...beating Roo in both runs. The Steeplechase were fast and fun and I really enjoyed running Fixx again.
Roo earned another Master Standard leg and 2 Steeplechase legs. We are busy chasing down our AAC Silver Award of Merit and think we now have only 6 standard legs to go!

Fixx was the model for the 2008 BCRO (Border Collie Rescue of Ontario) Holiday Card Fund Raiser. I took the photograph of Fixx in the fall and Pat Nadarajah of www.pawzitiveart.com turned the picture into a pastel holiday theme suitable for Holiday Cards appealing to all the Border Collie lovers out there. For the 2009 card the BCRO is running a picture contest. Check it out...you could win!
