George
is involved in multiple activities. Currently Scott is
working toward going into the open stock ring. I am working
him in Rally and showing him in conformation here and there.
We hope to start agility again with him if my knee can
hold up.
Stock
George
is currently training for Open. George has been Scott's
first stock dog and they have done a great job together.
George is very biddable and works well with Scott just
learning. George has tons of heart and desire to work.
Scott's goal for George is a WTCH and their trainer feels
it is an obtainable goal for both of them.

Rally
George and are are training
in Rally and we got our first Rally title the first weekend
we showed. It's been a long time since I've shown in obedience,
so it was fun to be back in the ring.
George will finish
his X title before he moves into Advanced in ASCA. We will
show also for his rally titles in AKC and UKC. He is a
natural heeler and quickly learns the exercises.
Agility
George
doesn't get to play agility as much as any of us would
like. When he does get to work, he LOVES it. If he had
an owner with a better knee, I know he would be amazing
in agility
The True George.....
Below are photos of George's
true personality. Last year he was Mackenzie's softball
team mascot. Mackenzie is very active in softball and we
often practice in the front yard with George as our outfielder.
To get George to be our outfielder we tell him to get out,
and he will go out and lie in the outfield awaiting balls.
Mackenzie will practice hitting and running and the object
is for her to get to a base or bases before George can
get the ball back to the pitcher. It is great fun and George
loves it.
The other photos show George
at Safe Spook. Each year all the kids in town dress up
and go tricking or treating downtown. To my husband's dismay,
we dress George up each year so he can enjoy the festivities.
George thinks it is wonderful and loves the attention.

Mackenzie and George won
the costume contest as The Countess and Count Barkcula.
Of course Count Barkcula had to bark on command in front
of the judges!
