Yeoville

Yeoville All That She Is

ADX JDX

Pet name: Echo DOB: October 9, 2005 Nicknames: Cookie Personality strengths: Fast learner, easy to motivate, mature for age, but also has an off switch. Personality weaknesses: Bed hopper! Favourite food: Loves all food- it doesn't necessarily need to be her own food tho! Garlic polony, cheese and pressed chicken are her favourite treats. Favourite activity: She loves to garden but unfortunately there are not enough plants for the amount of holes she produces. She's getting to like agility too... Favourite toy: Nylabones and tug toys. Memorable moment: Her performance in CCD at the Perth Royal where she did extremely well after 6 days training!  Another moment - the MASSIVE hole she dug in the middle of the lawn (had to count to ten many times before talking to her that day). Also winning the WA Novice Agility State Championship 2007..... If Echo was a human she would be:  A landscape gardener - at only 12 months old she already had a diploma in this!

Echo is the only girl from Yeoville's second litter from Aust Ch Rhonabwy Magic Gemma ADM JDM SPDX GD SD ET FM by Aust CH Etherial Chase The Ace PT. She has a lovely dark eye and face with feminine expression, but don't let that innocent look fool you... Echo was a very bright puppy and we suspect she will do very well as a performance dog in any discipline- she lives in Perth with Rod Stockdale along with his performance stalwarts Bundy (Sweetsend Bundy ADM JDM UD ET) and Toby (Winpara Cosmic Soul ADM JDM CDX ET), where she has commenced her campaigns agility and obedience. The stacked photo below and head shot above were taken at 19 months of age, when we caught up with Rod and Echo at the 2007 National Agility Trials.

In obedience, Echo made her debut at the Perth Royal Show where she placed third in the CCD class, and on 5/3/07 she trialled again in CCD at the Western Classic earning herself her first pass and second place with a score of 94/100.

In agility, Echo's debut trial (14/5/07) gained her passes in both Novice Jumping and Novice Agility - in jumping she placed fifth with a steady clear round, and in agility a lovely round earnt her first place.

At the Western Australian Agility and Jumping State Trials on 20&21/4/07 Echo did us proud! She placed fifth and first in the two qualifying rounds in Novice Agility, obtaining her Novice Agility title in the process, and placed fourth in the second qualifying round in Novice Jumping, allowing her to compete in both finals. Her finals performance was even better - Echo went on to win the Novice Agility State Championship Final (see photo at the top of the page), and placed third in the Novice Jumping Final!!!! What a wonderful achievement for Rod and Echo! Echo went on to complete her Novice Jumping title in South Australia on the weekend before the National Agility Trials.

Rod and Echo continued their success at the National Agility Trials in may 2007. Echo qualified for both the Novice Agility and the Novice Jumping finals (gaining first place in one of the qualifying jumping rounds). She went on to place second and fifth in the National Finals for Novice Agility and Novice Jumping respectively, which was a fabulous effort! Echo and Rove also obtained a Novice Strategic Pairs pass together at the Nationals :))). The above photo was taken at the nationals.

Echo has gone back to Perth and in less than a month she has since qualified for her titles in Excellent Agility and Excellent Jumping. Her agility passes include three first places, one second and one third place, while her jumping passes so far comprise two first places and two second places. Rod assures me he keeps telling Echo there is no rush but she seems determined to keep getting it right! Echo already has three passes each in masters agility and jumping, which is a fair effort for a 2 year old girl!

So it seems that Echo is shaping up nicely as a performance girl.... we are very pleased that both Rod and Echo are having so much fun and we look forward to their future together :)))
