The WA Team for 2007

Inspired by the NZ blog about their team The Pawblacks I have decided to do a little post about the 2007 WA Team representing our State at the ANKC Agility Nationals in Adelaide in around 3 to 4 weeks time. They are called Western Power. Made up of the following members;

Gina and Indie, a 4 year old BC girl who runs at 400, missed the Nationals last year but won the Open Agility final in 2005.
Sue and Nifty, a BC boy who has not long turned 3, won the Open Agility final last year and in 2005 was National Novice Jumping winner.

Kriszty (Team Captain) and Jess, our most experienced team member now representing WA for at least the 4th time, Jess is 8 years old and has won CAWA Agility Dog of The Year a couple of times now.
Kriszty and Terra, a very young BC girl just about to turn 3 years old, started competing in March 2006, who has won at the Classic and won a Novice Agility qualifying class at last year’s National.

Rod and Toby, another very experienced pair, Toby is 7 years old and this is at least his 4th year of selection as a WA team member. Toby won the Masters Agility final at the 2005 Nationals and has also been CAWA Dog of The Year a couple of times.

Cathy and Alex, WA’s first and only Toller to be selected to represent WA at the Nationals, a huge achievement for both Cathy and Alex. One of the most consistently clear round pairs competing Alex (who is 5 years old) has notched up an impressive record also placing on a regular basis.
And that is the WA team...5 BCs plus a Toller. 3 boys and 3 girls ranging in age from just on 3 to 8 years old, all of them capable of brilliance! Go WA!!
