Previous WASSA Cover Dogs

2010
"Levi"
Levi is a 7 year young blue
merle sheltie whose owner,
WASSA member Terry, says
can't believe how time flies
by. Levi loves to "do",
just about anything except
take a bath. Even swimming
is ok as long as there is
something to retrieve.
Obedience is fine as long as
he is with his Mom and there
are lots of treats and
play. But agility is his
true love, which Terry says
is easy to see if you have
ever watched him run. Levi
never gets distracted from
his job, his world is
agility. Because of his
love for the sport and his
speed, Terry has had to
learn how to be a much
improved handler. She owes
so much of her knowledge to
this incredible dog who is
always one step ahead of
her.
At home Levi has lots of
jobs, mostly created by
him. He is the watchdog
over the vacuum, hair
blowers, iron and iron
board, dishwasher and the
list goes on. As Terry
says, thank goodness he is
well trained or our world
would be chaos! He is a
couch potato a lot of the
time when Terry is doing
"other" stuff but give him
any signal that we are going
to train or walk or swim or
heaven forbid, pick up a
ball or Frisbee and he is
there, ready!
Levi has earned many titles
in conformation, obedience,
agility and rally. Terry's
hope is that they continue
and earn some more titles
before they are done. Levi
was bred by Terry's
daughter, and she would like
to thank Michelle for
producing this fantastic dog
and for letting her pick
him.

Tigger"
Tigger is a 7 year old trouble
maker owned and loved by WASSA
club member Sandra.
One of the amazing things he
does is bounce off Sandra's hip
when it's food time, hence his
name came to be Tigger cause he
has springs in his legs!
As Sandra describes him, he is a
one of a kind Sheltie who loves
to give kisses and be on your
lap as close to her as he can.
She loves him dearly, and
wouldn't trade him for all the
money in the world!

"April"
In memory of "April."
April was club
member Paula's first
sheltie and
introduced her to
the world of
showing, obedience
and flyball.
She went everywhere
with Paula, and did
everything with her.
She was the
babysitter and
matriarch of her
sheltie clan.
Her end of the bed
dog, April lived to
a ripe old age of 17
years, and wagged
her tail to everyone
she met.
She was Paula's
April !

"Miley"
Amy is owned by club member
Nancy and her husband
Harold.
She is four years old and

2009. Nancy and Amy
are now working on their
utility title.

"Miley"
Miley, owned by Club Member
Michelle, loves just about
everything,
and is always
entertaining herself with her
pile of toys.
She also always takes time to
smell the flowers!

2009
"Gibson"
Someone once told me: "I look at him from
across the room and he fills me up."
Club Member Lesley could not agree more when
it comes to Gibson. He is her "heart
dog," that "once in a lifetime dog" that
occupies a place in her heart that no other
can.
Gibson has always done whatever Lesley has
asked of him, and it never ceases to amaze
her.
One look at his face and she melts.

"Freska"
"Freska" is
club member Kim's bundle of energy! She
brought her home from her moms at the age of
12 weeks and now, at 14 months old, has her
HIC and just loves to herd. She is also
enjoying agility and is currently training
in obedience.
She loves car
rides especially sticking her head out the
window enjoying the wind, long walks, going
to work with Kim, and playing ball.
She also loves chasing the water from the
hose!
Freska is the true
meaning of the saying a man's best
friend and also has the true sheltie
characteristics.

"Rosie"
Rosie lives with member Kerry and
Brett. She came into their lives as a retired
show dog. On December 29, 2008 Rosie
celebrated her 16th Birthday with a Birthday
Party for this Beautiful Girl and Kerry and
Brett are happy to report se enjoyed
every minute of eating her cake!
Rosie is an absolute "Gem" and
loves to be with Kerry and Brett. One
of her favourite things in life are going for truck
rides, walks in the field with mom and dad,
enjoying a piece of pizza now and then, and
French Fries. She loves to lay in the sun on
warm sunny days or help her mom with the
gardening.
Rosie holds a very special
place in Kerry and Brett's hearts, and they
enjoy every minute of their time with her.

"Sam"
Sam, pictured above at 6 months, is enjoying his
ball on a warm spring day. Besides
playing catch with his tennis ball, Sam loves to
herd the
household cats and can also often be seen
chasing after his sister Sienna.
His love and joy is what makes him so special.
He is a real cuddle-muffin and is owned by club member Kathy.

"Piper"
Piper is a
blue merle sheltie owned and loved by
club members Janet and John.
He is the "ultimate canine cool Dude". His
favourite pastimes are having fun playing
Frisbee catch-me-if-you-can, pestering Monty,
barking at the neighbours and going for car
rides. In fact he thinks he should go for
every car ride all of the time! He
has also assumed the official duty of "front
door greeter"... no one gets by without his
approval. Piper is a joy to live with and
never fails to make us smile.

"Keira"
Keira is a
three year old tri-colour sheltie owned and loved by
club member Elaine and her husband Carter. Keira
earned her championship at 11 months of age, and is
currently being trained in obedience. She
loves going to class and loves her daily walks.
She looks forward to them no matter what the weather
is like. She is a real ball dog and would retrieve
her ball forever. Some of her other favourite
things to do are: playing tug of war with her toys;
going for car rides and snuggling on the couch in
front of the T.V. at the end of her very busy day!

the park with Sheltie friends and a golden
retriever. She is a champion show dog, and is
equally proud of the Rally Novice Title she earned
earlier this year, with hopes or more Rally titles

happy to report, and she is adapting well to her new

Sophie has stolen the hearts of all who know her.
