Carol Stocking and Shy MX,MXJ, CGC,
NAC,OJC,TN-N
I have a very unique relationship with Shy. I thought I was getting a very "shy" Border Collie rescue dog. Instead she has turned out to be the opposite and with personality plus. She needs to be very busy, which is why agility is my chosen field for her. She has grown to love it when on the course and in practice, but still squirrels, and gophers are her passion.
Shy is a challenge to me, because she is a "strong-willed child". She gets into a lot of trouble as a result, but it is just that character that I love. Agility brings out the strength of the bond you have with your canine teammate, and we have bonded! We have been competing in agility for four years now. Shy has her MX and MXJ titles and is working toward her MACH, slowly, but surely. She doesn't have to hurry on my account, and if she never makes it, that is okay too. I just love running with her on an agility course. I am delighted to have rescued this very special dog.
By July 2008, Shy had earned her 9th
Double Q toward her MACH title.
