Happy Graduation Lilly!

Lilly joined us about three years ago when she began taking classes with her terrier Champ. At the time she was our only junior handler, but we were all impressed with her determination and natural handling ability.

Lily currently runs a sheltie named Rowdy for a fellow club member, and in 2023 she got an Australian Shepherd named Dundee who made his agility debut this year. She graduated from high school a few weeks ago and we couldn’t be more proud of getting to be part of her journey.

Join us in saying congratulations Lily! We can’t wait to see where your journey takes you and we look forward to seeing many more agility runs from you.

Congratulations to MACH Abbey and Therese for earning their Master Agility Championship title at Murfreesboro, TN this past weekend!

They have been diligently working towards this goal for a long time. We’re so proud of their accomplishment!
Therese says “Abbey is a joy to run”, so they will keep doing agility and start working on MACH2. They will also incorporate more Premier courses. We look forward to continuing to work and compete with them for many years.

The MACH title requires 20 QQs (a double Q means the team made a qualifying score in BOTH masters standard and masters jumpers on the same day) and 750 points, which are earned by being faster than the standard course time.

Happy Memorial Day Everyone! We are thankful for those, dog and human alike, who have given the ultimate sacrifice protecting our country.
