Jake arrived at our home at 8 weeks old. He finished his ASCA Championship with all majors and a Best of Breed win by 18 months of age. Jake is a natural comedian and excels in every venue he is given the chance to compete in. During our campaign for his Championships, Jake and I actively competed and titled in Obedience, Rally, Flyball, and Agility. He literally took to performance events like a duck to water.

Jake possesses confidence, agility, drive, and willingness to please that has permitted him to successfully compete in such varied avenues of activity. Currently, the majority of our time is focused on agility. We will also pursue the completion of his AKC Championship in the Fall/Winter season of 2007.

Structurally, Jake is built very nice. Although he is not excessively flashy, he has something about him that gets him noticed. He has great presence and expression. He has a solid topline and nice shoulder layback. He is a moderate dog in all aspects, bone, coat, and angulation. His movement is clean coming and going. His coloration is rich and dark. His COI is 7.06%.

Jake has a natural talent to adapt to multiple situations while in the rings. He can easily go from the Obedience ring to the Conformation ring and then right into an Agility ring. Jake shows a lot of heart and desire to please. He is an exceptionally easy dog to live with, always bringing a smile to our faces with his antics. Jake is very balanced in temperament, he is not easily stressed.

His offspring have already started to make their mark on multiple venues. His children are actively training and trialing in herding, obedience, agility, conformation, and rally. He has major pointed offspring who are well on their way to their Championships.
