UP and COMING

This is the page for those dogs in training.

With each dog there is a journey, there are new things for me to learn and I am so grateful for all the dogs give back to me.

My hope is that I can assist them on the road to becoming useful working dogs, help them reach their full potential and find the home that will be a great fit for the new handler and each dog.  If you are interested in one of these dogs please give me a call or send an email.  denice.r@lycos.com
 I would enjoy discussing them with you.


            Litter planned
I am considering breeding BLU and GEM  summer 2010.  They should cross really well. 
If you would be interested in a pup from them please contact me so I can add you to the list.

Blu is out of M. Howard's Imp SPOT that goes back to 2  International Champions
and Jo Ann Zorb's GIDGE who also goes back to a  G.B. National Champion.
Gem is from Jack Knox's Imp JEFF and Imp GAEL who also have International and National Champions in their pedigree

Dex
Dex comes from some very nice Canadian lines that trace back to imported dogs.
Dex is 2yrs old as of the fall of 2009.  He was not worked much until recently but has tons of natural ability and is super keen. Dex enjoys working and is always listening and trying to please.  He has nice outruns, a good down,
nice walk up, is driving well and working well off balance also. 

I enjoy Dex so much he is now staying on for awhile.
We will getting to a few trials in 2010.  I am really looking forward to him coming on.  Dex's Pedigree

The young uns
I have a couple pups from my 09 summer litter that will be started this winter.  They will continue working until the right home comes along.  They are all keen and wanting to get to work.  Each pup gets individual time spent with them and they are very outgoing and confident.  Moses' Pedigree

Echo is available to the right home.  She is really doing well working sheep.  She is very natural, willing, takes correction well and wants to do the right thing.  She is going both directions equally well and also has a nice stop and walk up.  Echo even joined the big dogs during Kevin's clinic working out in the open field.  She is a nice one.

Troy and Sam are enjoying their new homes.

I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge those folks that have helped me along my journey and continue to do so.
Laura Hicks - Thanks for everything, I consider you a true sister, without you I would not be where I am today.
Jack Knox - Thank you Sir for all your advice and willingness to share your wisdom.  May I soak it all in.
Kevin Evans - Thank you for sharing your passion about the dogs, may we all be as consistent as you.
Bobby Dalziel and Karin Soderberg - What a pleasure it was to spend some time with you both.
Karin, may Gem look as good when I am out with her as she does with you. :-)

To all the clinicians whose clinics I have attended I have learned something from every one of you.
To all those I have visited with at trials that have become friends, Thank you for your support and encouragement.
