Alli - I have lost the most consistent presence in my life for the past 16 1/2 years and in that time period she played many roles and wore many hats (literally). From the babysitter, Jennifer's torturous dress-up days, putting up with all my training experiments to teaching all our dog's manners, and those manners included that if there was any food to be had, it was hers! She would even guard the garbage because if she couldn't have, it nobody could. She was a true ambassador to her breed and I am very grateful for all she gave me, she was responsible for showing me where all my hopes, dreams and goals lay. She is at the top of my gratitude list forever.

     Wrangler - A black and white Border Collie, born in St. Louis, Missouri. Wrangler was put up for adoption through Border Collie rescue and fortunately for us, we found him! He has a high drive and is incredibly well-trained. A Master Goose Control dog that loves what he does. He excels in competition, obedience and sheep herding as well.

Tragically we lost our Wrangler in a house fire in February 2008. He shall be missed but never forgotten.

MASTER GOOSE CONTROL DOG

          Phurrie - Phurrie is an Australian Shepherd belonging to our daughter Jennifer. After training her other dog Marley, she set about to do better and she has done a great job as Phurrie will run flyball in 4.00 seconds. This dog is also an awesome obedience and agility dog.

We lost this exciting girl in the house fire in February 2008 also.

GOOSE CONTROL DOG IN TRAINING

     Marley Ransome ABC - Marley is a 1 1/2 year old Border Collie that we adopted through Canadian Guide Dogs in Ottawa. She belongs to my daughter Jennifer and is now competing in flyball. Marley has been clocked at 4.00 seconds. Agility is coming along well and her team will be out competing soon. Her biggest love is to chase geese away from golf courses.

Another great loss to the fire.

     Porsha - Wow, what a great producer for Maplelane! Her wonderful temperament has carried forward in all of her 45 puppies. Many of these dogs are in competitive homes, but most of them are "fetch-a-holic", couch potato family pets. Porsha will remain with me to continue her love of flyball and goose control.

And the fire takes yet another one.

Trasher -Trasher is an

Australian Cattle dog that was abandoned by his family and left to his own demise. Thanks to some thoughtful neighbours, he was brought to us to find him a good home. We quickly saw this dog's talent and placed him into training. He now excels at flyball and spends most of his days chasing a soccer ball for hours on end.

And another victim of this tragic Fire.
