OTCH Ronas Hill Kraker-jak
"Kraker-jak" was Maureen's first sheltie in the 70's & 80's.
She trained him through her teenage years, competing against mostly
adults in the sport. In all their trials they qualified
with either a 1st, 2nd, with one 3rd!
They took many High In Trials, Highest Scoring Shetland Sheepdog,
and Maureen, several Junior Handler awards.

Arhope Dunisla Call Me Sibeau
C.D.X
When Maureen returned to the dog world in 1988, "Sibeau" was the
second dog she trained in obedience. This also launched
her career into being qualified to teach all class levels through
the Bytown Dog Obedience Club, and subsequently teaching since
1994 with the City of Ottawa.
They also performed on the BDOC flyball and scent hurdling teams,
doing many local fairs, half-time during the Ottawa Rough Rider's
football game (to name a few) and pictured at an evening conformation
event for the Ottawa Kennel Club. Unfortunately a flyball
accident prevented him from attaining his U.D.
1988-2001

Ch Arhope Simply Sinful C.D.X.
"Logan" was a companion to "Sibeau", arriving @ 10 months of age
yet only 2 wks apart in age. Little did Maureen know that
"Logan" would propel her into the show world as well. Between
them, they learned both the ropes of competing & obtaining a
conformation championship, the 'art' of specialing in the Breed/Group
ring, and at the same time training for obedience titles.
He was what we call a 'balanced dog'! Brains and looks!
1988- 2000

"Ditto" was just over a year when she went to the ASSA National
in 2000 and earned her Herding Instinct Title. It was the
first time Maureen had ever participated in this event. The
object of this test is just to allow the dog to exhibit any natural
instincts, through at least 5 of the 10 minutes allowed ... and
as you can see "Ditto" did just that!

"Phoebe" was owned by Megan Thomas & family of Ottawa.
Megan finished her 4th yr at Guelph University in 2002 and during
her tenure she participated in a program where the students would
take on a community resident's dog for obedience training.
They are training for 1 night a week for 6 weeks, and then it's
GRADUATION! Megan's obedience with "Phoebe" has given her
the extra edge to take on the more challenging dogs. "Phoebe"
@ 12 yrs of age, left our world in early 2007.

On Oct 19/03, "Gryhpon" and owner Linda Howie obtained their Agility
Dog Of Canada title at the Dream Fields event! They've also
been exploring the herding end of sheltie activities. "Gryhpon"
is sired by the 1st North American sheltie to be awarded the title
of Duo Champion - a dog having both breed championship + herding
titles. At only 3 years of age, we can certainly see the
potential for "Gryphon" to follow in his dad's pawprints!
Sept '04 at the OKC show in Spencerville he easily obtained his
Novice Rally Obedience. In March/05 he completed his Rally
Advanced MCL. At our CSSA National 2006 in Ottawa he earned
his AGN with a 1st placement. He continues to add titles
- early 2008 he has his Advanced Games DC, and now has his Advanced
Agility Dog of Canada title with a 1st place. Of all the
dogs that competition in the various levels he was had the fastest
'yards/sec' @ 3.35! On July 27/08 he added his AGN (Novice
Jumpers & Weaves) & AGI (Intermediate Standard).
This team just keeps on amazing us!
AND THEN IN SEPT 2008
They add 2 more titles in one weekend. His Special Masters
Standard Title & Special Masters Team Relay Title. These
came with 7 Q runs, 4 1st places and best runs, and 3 2nd places.

"Shaymus" is owned by Lynn Cuthbert of Ottawa. He completed
his FDX with his "Paws On Fire" team in Nov/08. He also has
one qualifying 1st place for his "Jumpers & "Weaves" agility
title. As of May/09 he now has 2 Jumper Q's with a 1st/Best
Run, 2nd and 1 Gambler's Q with a 1st place.
They are also well on their way with a 1st & Best Run for AAC
Advanced Gamblers & the same for their CKC Intermediate Jumpers
with Weaves.
He has racked up 7 titles all in the summer of 2009, which I think
is a record for any Shelamo dog.

In October 2009, another title! Shaymus was a natural
during his Herding Instinct Test.
(Majestyk B'Croft Secret Service x Laureate L'Anais)

Now how's this for FUN! Travel across the country on a motorcycle,
with your best bud in tow!
Rick & Kris Morin with their boy "Casey"
take regular summer cross country trips on their Honda GoldWing. What a thrill is all I can
say ... a Performance Dog, just in a different way. Brings back
memories of my trip to the East Coast of Canada with my dad on his
GoldWing 1000, think it was in the late 70s.
