Tweed is our “main-man” aussie about the house. He finished his AKC CH with a 5-point major and his ASCA CH with four majors. For his obedience and rally obedience debuts, he achieved each of his CD’s, along with his RN, RA and RE with his first three times, back to back, in the ring for each to complete his titles. He now has multiple High Scoring Novice Dog and High Scoring Aussie awards in AKC and we were the proud winners of the 3-day High In Trial Aussie belt buckle from the ASCA 5^th Annual Three Pine Ranch Trial Obedience Competition  in Aug 2005. Tweed is my first ever competitive obedience dog.

So far, Tweed's competition statistics include:

United States Australian Shepherd Association:

2005 Obedience Recognition Award: 3rd place in the Top Ten

2005 Rally Obedience Recognition Award: 4th place in the Top Ten

Front & Finish stats for 2005 for Novice A Results:

In between times, he makes his appearance in the breed ring with me and is pointed in ASCA.

Pilot is a quiet, intense and biddable worker with an old style outlook, dedication and work ethic. He is an incredible partner.

Pilot and and his sister "Dream" were the pick puppies of Kizzie X Tweed Litter. Both are terrifically correct with great structure and fantastic movement.

Sam is now only ONE advanced duck leg away from his WTCH!!!

Sam went Most Promising Started (MPS) at the 8th Annual 3-Pine Ranch Classic here in NM. He was also MPS for two of the four days of trials. He came away with his started sheep title and one leg each on cattle and ducks. Steve Shope is his trainer and handler. Sam is pointed in the ASCA breed ring.

Sam was named "Sam" from birth. His approach to life is "Sam I AM". He doesn't hesitate to enter into ANYTHING. With all due respect to his intended namesake, it has been hard to shift his name.  Sam is a delight and challenge rolled into one package.

Sam lived and works in
