Early in 2009 we had
a visitor from Canada who came to meet all the Collooneys and Me
(Viv). During her time here she fell in love with two of the males
and one of my older girls. After taking many photos and returning
home to speak with her friend and partner Roberta, they decided that
Compo was the man for them. Some time has past since then, But Compo
in now resident In Ontario Canada with Roberta Jameison
and co-owner Stacey Cronyn. Compo will compete in conformation but
will also take part in Straight and Oval Racing, as well as Lure
coursing, which I know he will absolutely love! Compo has a lot to
offer to Roberta and the other Canadian breeders with a lovely
Pedigree and proof that he can produce the goods with 2 of his
daughters here in the UK already winning CCs.
Compo has taken part in his 1st Lure
race meet in Canada !! he ran
the entire 3 programs, starting without flinching from the starting
boxes, and he wound up winning the OVERALL TURTLE award (a very
coveted award, I might add). The turtle goes to the dog with the
lowest race score, who runs with heart and tenacity all programs to
finish last in points. I
am sure with some experience (ie getting out of the boxes as soon as
they open) he will improve how he finishes. So Compo has got his
first race leg towards a minor racing title that requires 6 meets to
be run and completed in their entirety to earn the title.
An informal photo taken after the race
Compo has already been winning at Shows in Canada and has been
Winners Dog, BOB & had group placements. |
