Trooper's pages updated 6/09

Trooper was born May 24, 2005. Second born puppy in a litter of 4, he was 16 1/2 ozs. at birth. Very dark red, with only a little white, he has grown into a very handosme young dog! He lives in Northridge, California, with his Mom, Ann Hills. Ann plans to trial Trooper in Obedience and Agility, but like the rest of Tru's offspring, he has done so well with the sheep, she has been bitten by the herding bug:-) Ann is a good friend, and has given our pup Trooper a fantastic home! As a pup, Trooper was BAER and CERF tested normal. Male/neutered.

Ann also has another Tru puppy, TRACE. See his page too !

May 22/09- At a NADAC trial in CA, Trooper had a 1st in Open tunnelers, and his 2nd leg in Novice Chances.

He was also a recipient of the Multiple Sport Title Award, given to dogs who earn titles in two or more different sports (for Troop, herding and agility). Ann is SO proud of her boy!

**Jan 18/09- Trooper competed at an AHBA trial this weekend. He came away with his HTADI and HRDI titles, earing a 1st, 2 -2nds and a 3rd place. The judge was smitten, and Ann was lucky to get Trooper in the car at the end of the day! See new pictures on his herding page.

What a great weekend Ann!
