Nov 28th - Acton Agility's AAC Trial

Andrea, Arlene and Shona head to Flamborough for Acton Agility's AAC Trial. It was a very exciting day as Miss Phoenix made her debut at just 18 months old! It was also our last agility trial on 2008.

Phe did her very first Starters Jumper class. She is an awesome little girl who rarely puts a paw wrong. It was amazing to see the border collie that came out in her on her first run! This pretty quiet girl squealed her whole way around, thought about breaking her start line (but didn't)...She came out of the ring with the same look as her brother Baxter, lol. It really was great though, I was so glad that I got to see her first run!

Phe's first Starters Jumper run:


Peso had a good day coming away with 2 Masters Gamble Q's and a Masters Standard Q! What a year this amazing boy has had!

Peso's Masters Standard Q run:


Baxter gets to play also after so much time off for training. He had a great day holding his start lines and getting all his weave entries which I couldn't be more proud of. He also comes away with a Masters Gamble Q.

Baxter's Master Gamble Q run:


Abbey's day started a little slow but she finished off the day with a great Masters Jumper run coming away with a Q. She was sooo close on her Masters Standard but bit the dust at the frame/tunnel discrimination :(

Abbey's Masters Jumper Q run:

Abbey started out on Friday with some awesome runs! First was Standard where she had a clean and fast run. She finished in 9th place for Standard 1. Her next round was Jumpers where again she had a clean run earning an 11th place finish (just 700th's of a second out of 10th place). Her final round was Steeplechase 1. She had a great, clean round earning herself 10th place, her 10th Q, her Masters Steeplechase Dog of Canada (MSCDC) Title and the right to go to round 2!! (a first for Abbey) Abbey finished her day in 9th place overall.

Abbey in Standard 1

Saturday did not fair as well. Again it started with Standard where Abbey had 15 faults. Her next round was Gamble where she did ok in the opening but sadly did not get the gamble. She was eliminated from her Steeplechase round 2 but was having a smoking round at the time :( Abbey slipped into 11th place overall after day 2.

Abbey in Gamble 2

Sunday we started with Gamble. Abbey had a great opening earning 38 points with only trying the mini once! Again she missed the gamble :( Her final run was Jumpers, it had turned hot and Abbey just faltered coming away with 10 faults. Abbey finished 14th place overall in the 10" Specials Division.

July 19 & 20 - Morningstar's AAC Agility Trial

Peso and Andrea head east to Kingston for Morningstar's AAC Agility Trial. They have some great rounds and come away with their 2nd Masters Standard Q! Unfortunately the rain was too much on Sunday so they passed on a couple of runs. Peso is now down to 8 more Q's to ATChC!!

July 19 - Dog Days of Scugog

The TNT boys head to Port Perry ON to compete in the Skyhoundz Disc Trial. Rick rocked with both Ripley and Baxter in the Distance and Accuracy class tying each other for 1st place! The boys had to do a tie-breaker where they had 1 chance to catch the longest throw. Ripley was first and had a beautiful catch just over the 40 yard line. Baxter was next and Rick let that disc rip, it was going great with Baxter tracking it perfect but then with the help of a soft wind, it went over the 60 yard mark and the fence!! Poor Baxter didn't get a chance to try and catch the disc.

So Ripley took home a beautiful gold medal and Baxter the silver. Pretty good being 1st and 2nd though out of a huge field of dogs.

Ripley also tried his paw in an official Dock Dogs competition. In the first wave he came in 4th place and earns his first Novice Q with a jump of 8'4". In the second wave he was pretty tired and had one bad throw of his toy from me so had a jump just under 6'. He came away with another Novice Q though, so overall he had a blast and did quite well for his first time. We will definitely look for more opportunities to play this game :)

OTEA Student Martin & Zipper also compete in the Skyhoundz Disc trial. This is their first disc trial and he does great! This is going to be another great disc dog :)

July 5 & 6 - OTEA's CDDA Disc Trial and Seminars

Shona, Rick, Ripley and Baxter headed east to Ottawa ON to host a CDDA Disc trial and the Katherine Ferger Seminar. The weekend was a scorcher to say the least but the trials ran smoothly and everyone had a great time. Katherine's seminars were awesome (Ripley learned lots in the Freestyle 101!)

Ripley came home with 1st place in Saturday's Furthest Catch competition with a catch of 164'1". He also gets 2 NSD Q's and a 2nd place in NSD on Sunday with a whopping 52 points! He also earns his Disc Dog (DD) Title for accumulating 100 points.

2008 Nationals Qualifiers: Abbey, Peso, Chase & Breeze!


Abbey had a great weekend coming in 7th place overall with a total of 439 points! She had clean runs in Standard 1 (earning 6th place) and Jumpers 2 (earning 7th place) and only had 5 faults in Standard 2 (earning 5th place) and Jumpers 1. She got a mini gamble each day but didn't get either of the main gambles (earning 6th place in both). She qualifies for Nationals and will be heading east to Sussex, NB in August! Abbey also earns her 9th Masters Steeplechase Q in the qualifier round on Friday and a 6th place ribbon but doesn't qualify for the money round. Maybe at Nationals?!

Peso has a great Sunday, recovering from a very tough Standard 1 on Saturday. He has an amazing Jumpers 2 round, running clean and fast, coming in 11th place in the 22" Regulars class! That is awesome work!! This amazing just turned 2 year old also qualifies for Nationals but unfortunately will not being heading east with Abbey :(

Baxter started with a great Gamble 1 round but unfortunately the final bar in the gamble came down missing out on the gamble points. He had a good (for him) Jumpers 2 round and not bad round in the Standard 2. He unfortunately didn't qualify for Nationals but did have a fun time and will be heading east with Abbey to at least play in the Steeplechase round :)

Baxter and Shona want to thank Andrea for being the BEST helper ever this past weekend! Andrea kept Baxter calm before going into the rings which in turn help Shona to remain calm too :) You're the best!

Ripley and Phoenix had a good time watching their respective mom's, Flare and Rio, compete in the jumpers rounds. They each got to practice a few jumps and lots of tugging (even with each other!) They are excited to be playing next year with the big boys.

OTEA Student Colleen & Chase have a great weekend and this young 2yr old boy also qualifies for Nationals! He even got the main gamble in Gamble 1. Colleen's other dog Breezie also qualifies for Nationals and earns a 4th place overall in the 22" Veterans division. Breeze also makes the Sasha's Blend Steeplechase finals and finishes 1st!! Great job Colleen with both your "kids" :) We are working on talking Colleen and hubby Ron into heading east with us in August for Nationals...I think that is a great idea ;)


I can't believe that we have been talking about the Regionals for months now and now it is over. Thank you to everyone that made the Regionals such a success!

May 10 - Terrier Fun Day!

Saturday was Owen's day! Owen, along with dog siblings Abbey, Baxter and Ripley, head to Bewdley, ON for a Terrier Fun Day! The first event that Owen got to try was small dog racing. Thanks to Pat & Bob for lending us a muzzle. Owen took a few races to actually get the idea that you are suppose to race the other dogs to the end of the track. He preferred to chase the other dogs but really liked going through the end hole (though quite a tight squeeze for him!) He actually won his final race!!



The next event that Owen got to try, and I believe he just loved, was lure coursing. He took off after the lure and never let it out of his sight. He was running his heart out and just had the best time! I think this could be a sport that Owen would love to do more of.



Owen also got to do some go-to-ground work. Bob was the teacher at this station helping us get Owen to understand the job. At first he was just interested in the rat but eventually when he realized he was "allowed" to bark and go for it, he was in terrier heaven! lol. He actually got the hang of going through the tunnels and even moved on to a more advanced course. He had a bit of trouble getting his larger body through the longer course but still did well.



Abbey also did a bit of small dog racing but acted like it was much too uncivilized for her (imagine having a muzzle on!!) Abbey, Baxter and even Ripley got to do a bit of agility at the agility station. It was the first time this year out on grass and they all did well.

May 2 - Acton Agility AAC Trial

The OTEA dogs head to Acton Agility's AAC Trial. All the dogs had a great day coming home with 2 Q's each :)

Apr 26 - Rat Pack AAC Agility Trial

Abbey, Baxter and Shona head west to do 1 day at the Rat Pack agility trial. Abbey comes away with another Steeplechase Q. Baxter had a good Gamble run but knocked the bar down in the main gamble :( Tiffany (his breeder) ran him in the Steeplechase class. It started out really good but after getting caught in the weaves, he was a bit thrown off and near the end came out looking for mom (what a baby!) I think they both had a good time playing together though :)

Abbey getting Steeplechase #6 Q:

The evaluator was quite happy with her and said she had an awesome temperment, was quite biddable and had good instinct. Good job Phe Phe!!
