Pam's Brags! (EMMA, BEAU, SHADOW)
2008
October 18, 2008
I wasn’t all that thrilled
today – scores a little down from last week and crappy
placements, BUT we did have 12 runs again, 11 Q’s, 1
NQ again because Emma didn’t stay on the recall, and
7 placements. Okay, I guess it wasn’t that shabby 
We are all very exhausted and I won’t do that again – trial
2 weekends in a row with the dogs in 4 times each – too
stressful and I did see a bit of burnout with Beau. Emma and
Shadow were still raring to go!

Rally O' Trial at Y2K9's
in Wyndmoor, PA Sunday, December 7, 2003 Shadow,
finished up his Rally 1 title with a Magna Cum
Laude and a score of 191. The best part of his
run was that I didn't need to have anyone "protect" us
from the crowd because Shadow and I were feeling
very confident!
December 5, 2003 We had
an interesting experience. I was grooming dogs in
the basement and had locked the dogs in the bedroom.
Once I was done grooming, I stayed downstairs to clean
up and Lynn took her dogs upstairs to take them out
to her car. I come upstairs and low and behold, all
3 of my boys are in the kitchen! I put them outside
in the back yard. Lynn came back in the house and
I asked her if my dogs were out of the bedroom when
she came up. They were! I asked her if Shadow did
anything and she said she wasn't sure which border
collie was Shadow but in any case, none of the dogs
approached her!!!!!!
September 20, 2003 Pam's
Border Collie Shadow acted like a completely normal
dog when 10 guests came to visit. This was his very
first time "out and about" when I had
company over!
October 4, 2003 Pam's Border
Collie Shadow went to his first ever match show where
he did every exercise - INCLUDING THE STAND FOR EXAM!
HE WAS BRILLIANT! And we were both calm!
On June 14, 2003 Shadow
got wicketed (measured) at an agility trial!!! After
a week and a half of desensitizing him to being on
the table with familiar and new people measuring him,
he handled it like a pro. I was a basket case as the
judge (even though I told her that Shadow is afraid
of people) PET HIM ON THE HEAD AND LOWERED HER FACE
TO HIS! Shadow on the other hand was completely and
utterly calm!
We ran in JWW (Jumpers with
weaves) in ankle deep mud and while we did not qualify
for our agility run (handler error again...) he
was super dooper and as always, did exactly what
I told him to do. One of these years I'll get my
handling skills to work...<grin>
Shadow went from being a very
aggressive (rescued) dog to an almost normal dog in
16 months! Earned his CGC Title!!!
Shadow was in a Rally-O match
on March 23, 2002! I
was a nervious wreck but he was GREAT!
Took him to his first
ever trial on April 20, 2002 and he was great. We
entered in Rally and while he didn't place he was
amazingly calm and did quite well!
April 5, 2003 APDT Rally-O in
Wyndmoor, PA First Trial My Border Collies,
Beau and SHADOW(!) tied for 1st place and SHADOW
WON THE RUN-OFFand was first place over 70 other
dogs.

and won third place
