Tika
An assortment of photos from Tika the aussie cross ("Craussie")'s adventures. [Most photos are mine; the weaves, nosework, and dog on a log were friends' shots.]
More on Tika: She just loved being active. And she had more than enough intelligence; I had to work to stay ahead of her. We started in NADAC way back when and she earned through these-- EAC,EGC,NJC,TN-O,WV-N;RS-E,JS-N,GS-O --but then there were so many USDAA and CPE trials available that I picked them to focus on. In CPE, she earned the highest award--her C-ATE. In USDAA, she ended her career with: LAA-Gold, ADCH-Silver/PDCH-Gold, TM-Platinum, PTM-Platinum, seven top-ten Performance appearances in all four class categories, and just 12 short of her Lifetime Platinum award. She also earned her Companion Dog title fairly early on. She went on and on and on in agility, sidelined only by a failing heart before her 12th birthday.
