About Brooke

Brooke is my pick puppy from the Brie to Jack litter born on July 2, 2014. Brooke is quite the character. Keeping her four feet on the ground is nearly impossible. She’s extremely friendly and is NOT afraid to show it! She is the epitome of what I strive to breed – a friendly, intelligent high-drive dog with the correct structure to back it up. Brooke earned her championship in only four shows. She finished in style winning Winners Bitch at the Eukanuba National Dog Show for 5-point majors two days in a row! Her true passion, however, is work! Brooke is extremely driven and talented in agility, dock diving and herding. She is one of the most natural Beardies on stock I’ve ever seen. I’m just crazy about Brooke. She enhances our lives so much with her enthusiasm and drive. Never a dull day when Brooke is around!

She earned her Rally Intermediate (RI) title and then went on to qualify in Advanced. This RI title actually completes her BCCA Versatility Excellent title, which is very impressive for such a young dog. I couldn't be more proud of my little tom boy.

October 6, 2017: Due to Brooke's pregnancy, we were only able to compete in conformation at the 2017 BCCA National Specialty.

I love this girl!!!

April 26, 2015: Brooke and Penny went to an all-breed B match (like a practice conformation show). Brooke picked up a Herding Group 1 and Penny got some great ring experience. I probably should have taken a photo *before* letting them play in the dirt!

 

February 1, 2015: Brooke competed in her first show and she was awesome! She showed herself beautifully and I couldn't have asked for a better first performance!

December 10, 2014: Brooke has spent the fall playing and growing up. She LOVES the agility foundation work we've started. She's still a sweet playful little girl that is showing a lot of promise! I'll start taking her to conformation class pretty soon to get her ready for the show ring, too!



October 1, 2014: Brooke had a blast at the 2014 BCCA National Specialty. She was too you to compete in anything but had a wonderful time meeting people, getting exposed to sights, sounds and smells, as well as getting used to show life.
