German Shepherd / Labrador Retriever mix
9 years old

Kobe is a 9 year old spayed female German Shepherd/Labrador Retriever mix who was my first agility dog.  She was a good dog to learn agility with because she was not the fastest (unless she was chasing a ball and then she could outrun any Border Collie) but she became very steady in agility. Her crowning achievement was qualifying for the NADAC Championships and going to Calgary in 2003. Unfortunately Kobe had surgeries for torn cruciate ligaments in both her knees the last two years so her agility career is winding down. Even after her surgeries she was able to achieve her Specialist Champion title in CPE in February 2006!

Labrador Retriever
8 years old

Mia is aN 8 year old spayed female yellow Labrador Retriever. Her registered name is Mia's Gold because the weekend we brought her home the US Women's Soccer team with Mia Hamm won the Gold. Her agility career came to a crashing halt when she & I were asked to leave an intermediate agility class because of her fear aggression. After a great deal of education on my part about dog to dog aggression (reading, attending seminars and workshops, etc.) and a lot of TTouch, behavior modification  and "better living through chemistry" on Mia's part, we were able to come back to agility. Thanks to Nola, Mia has made up for lost time with a vengeance, achieving her CPE Agility Trial Champion title in February 2006!
