Mara & Vernon

My name is Karen and I have been involved in the sport of dog agility with my two dogs for 5 1/2 years. 

 My English Springer Spaniel Vernon is 6 and is currently working at the advanced level.  He is a pretty easy going guy and doesn’t see the necessity to rush through anything too fast, so we just enjoy working at where he is each day.  

Mara is my 5 year old Doberman who recently retired from the sport and had also been working at the advanced level.  She was eager to learn, enjoyed working on all the equipment and had steadily progressed.   

This sport provides a great opportunity for me and my dogs to work together as a team and have fun.  We are always learning and constantly challenged to improve our skills through ongoing training, practice and participating in agility trials.  I really enjoy the camaraderie of club members, the mentorship to enhance our skills and the opportunity to promote this sport within our community.
