Wicca ready to track in October 2008!

Wicca is an absolute joy to live with and is certainly the life of the party.  She initiates almost all of the play, so you know when she is around, watch your kneecaps.  However, Wicca has decided that she has no interest in working and would rather be on the couch than go to a show, so after MONTHS of deliberation, we decided it might be best if we found her a loving pet home where she can just be the REAL Wicca all the time.

So, Wicca was spayed at the beginning of September 2006 and now lives with her fur-parents, Barb Burgess and Paul Peterson of Calgary and her niece, a Jewel granddaugher named Brenna, formally known as SG-2 Rated Best Puppy in Breed (CKC Pointed)Mokobreeze Legacy of Akamai RN CRNCL CGN HIC.  Just after Wicca's second birthday she completed her final health clearances.  Numbers are above under her name.  Although she is spayed, she became our first fully health tested pup!

Some of the reasons we picked Wicca in the first place is that she proved to be a more substantial bitch than her mother; in bone, girth and just general size.  At  3 years old, she is 85lbs and 24 inches (61cm) tall.  Her structure overall is what we were looking for as well, we are pleased with her dark, dark eye, dark mouth pigment and short back.  She also has a fun-loving temperament to die for!

Wicca and Barb along with myself and Cindy and Kalli (below) attended a tracking seminar in October 2008 and her instinct came through!  In Red Deer in November 2008, Wicca finished her RA with 2 fourth in class placements and also earned the first leg of her Pre-Novice (PCD) title.  Awesome work guys, I couldn't be prouder!

At the Cal-K9 trials in Calgary in November, Wicca earned her second PCD leg .... excellent year for Barb and Wicca!  She finished her PCD in February 2009!

June 2009, Wicca and Barb finished their CARO rally novice title with 2 more great scores qualifying Wicca for the RNMCL title!

In March 2010, Barb and Wicca 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.

Wicca was ranked #13 in Canada in APDT Rally for 2009!!!!  Way to go girls!!!! Nice surprise from these gals.

And finally for 2010, Wicca and Barb earned a wonderful 206 in APDT rally level 1 ..... just for fun!  What more can you ask?  Let me tell you .... Wicca and Barb entered the Novice A ring for the very first time EVER, and they did so in style.  Barb and Wicca not only earned 2 legs of their CD title, they did so by going HIGH IN CLASS and a Second in Class!!!!!  FABULOUS JOB GALS!!!!  Barb was so surprised when the judge, Eva O'Keefe, called her number as the HIC dog, she didn't move ... I wish I had had a camera on her facial expression when she realized it was her!!!!

And onto a fabulous start for 2011, Barb and Wicca finished their CD title in March here in Calgary with a respectable score of 187!!!  Their picture is below ....

In July, 2011, WIcca and Barb earned the first of their open obedience legs with a third in class score and I couldn't be more proud yet again, given just 2 weeks before Wicca had scared herself on the high jump and was refusing it .... these two are just amazing!!

To say I am proud of these 2 is an understatement.  Wicca went to live with Barb now 4 years ago to be a pet and a couch potato, and look at what they have accomplished!  Wicca is certainly in the best home possible!!!!!

Wicca now also has one leg towards her APDT RL2 title as of Otober 2011.  These two are on a roll ....

NEWS!!!  Wicca and Barb finished their CDX title in January 2013!!!  Wicca became Jewel's first advanced obedience titled kid at almost 8 years old!!!!  I am so proud of these 2!!
