We are TWEETING! · www.twitter.com · You can follow us at -- thornappleaussi We are now on FACEBOOK as Thornapple Australian Shepherds!

I hope you are sitting down because I am proud to announce that Abby (Ch Thornapple's Pure Poison, NAP, OJP) earned her open jumpers title today!!

It was a fantastic way to end our agility season. I can't wait to see what she does next season. She has come so far in the two years we have been training and the one season we have been competing. She also now is in open Standard. We have to work on A-frame down contacts, but otherwise she's doing well in that also. Feel free to visit my Facebook page to see tons of videos of my little agility superstar!! I thank you everyday for my sweet, adorable, loving angel! I hope all is well with you and the Thornapple family. Happy Easter! Shari WOOO WOOO Shari & Abby!
