August 15, 2010 RCC Herding Instinct Test, held just outside of Calgary. We had a few of our own dogs entered, either bred by us or of outside breedings. Some success, some not so much, but everyone had a great time with sheep. Our own little Seeker baby, Magnum, passed his HIC at the age of 11 months old. Not to be outdone by his daddy, Dax, who played with sheep for the first time in 3 years. He did fantastic as always!

God Speed Angel Jager ..... April 2, 2010 ... HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY to our first litter, our 'Harry Potter' Litter. I can't believe Jewel's first babies are 5. Where did that time go? March 2010 We got some awful news today from Cindy ..... Sadly and suddenly, Kalli was lost to GI lymphoma (aliementary lymphoma), a very quick and invasive form of cancer, at the VERY young age of 2.5 years. Our condolences to her family, owner and co-breeder Cindy Chan and her husband Jason and their daughter, Brianna. RIP Kalli girl ..... March 12 - 14, 2010 in Calgary, we had a busy weekend. Our little Wicca and momma, Barb had a 2 title weekend between the CKOC show and the APDT rally trials held at Sit Happens! They finished their Rally Excellent title with a second in class and they also finished their APDT Rally Level 1 title with another second in class score. All of Wicca's score in APDT rally now qualify her for the APDT Achievement award as well. Ruckus and his momma Moka, and Cindy all entered the Rally Advanced ring for the first time and both dogs came out with their first RA legs! Moka also went Best of Opposite sex in the conformation ring on Friday! Ruby made her show debut at the CKOC show on Friday at just over 6 months old and she did beautifully. She was a little pro. And lastly, Jewel made her ring debut for the first time in just over a year. She earned her third RAE leg with a second in class in excellent (score of 95) and a HIGH IN CLASS in advanced with a perfect 100! And for her first APDT trial in 2 years, she earned a 201 ... despite my awful handing... she had so much fun and I was absolutely thrilled to have her in the ring with me again! February 18, 2010 WE ARE NEW LUPINE DEALERS!!! Fantastic collars, leashes and harnesses, we have used them ourselves for over a decade and are now proudly selling them! Here is the link to the new webpage! February 6-7, 2010 AKC show here in Calgary, Wicca and Barb earned 2 legs of their Rally Excellent title with some great scores! And in one day entered as a special, Moka went Best of Opposite Sex!!! Brenna was also entered in her first show in MANY months and she showed beautifully and went Reserve Winners Bitch! January 10, 2010 - Our kennel is now permanently registered with the Canadian Kennel Club! So what does that mean? It means that we have fulfilled the requirements of the CKC which are 1.) we are registered members in good standing of the CKC for more than 10 years, 2.) we have bred 5 or more dogs who have earned CKC granted titles and 3.) we have NEVER been subjected to disciplinary action by the CKC.
We are very proud of our young breeding program, this being granted to us 3 months shy of our first litter turning 5 years old!!
January 1, 2010 Well, here is our 2009 recap. I had this notion that 2009 was a fairly quiet year, and I suppose by all accounts for my own personal dogs, it has been, but when I did a tally of all of the titles my own dogs and dogs that I have bred have accumulated in 2009, it wasn't so shabby afterall. 2 Canadian Championship titles (Ruckus and Lexi) 2 Pre-Novice Obedience title (Ruckus and Wicca) 1 CKC Rally Novice title (Moka) 2 Caro Rally Novice titles (Moka and Wicca) 4 Temperament test titles (Kalli, Lexi, Digit and Mercedes) 1 Rottweiler Club of Canada Hall of Fame Inductee (Seeker)
TOP 20 APDT Canadian Standings, both Jewel and Seeker were ranked for 2008, and continuing with more APDT news, Moka and Wicca both earned 2 legs towards their APDT Rally Level 1 titles.
We also can't forget that Dax sired 3 litters in 2009, one outside litter as well as our 2 of our own in house litters. These babies all arrived in September 2009. You can see them by going to visit their respective pages, 'Dixie Chicks' Litter and our 'Twilight' Litter.
So, now onto big things for 2010. I can't wait to start to update this page with more excellent news from our dogs!
