Duck dogs in competition

Inspired by the success of agility leagues dedicated to handlers of breeds like Lurchers, Weimaraners and Belgian Shepherds, and due to the increasing numbers of Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers taking part in agility, in 2002 a small group of Toller handlers have decided to set up a similar league. And the rest is history...

2011-2012

The Toller Agility League has just finished its 8th  year with 22 handlers with a total of 34 amazing duck dogs between them!

This year the Solli Special Shield is to go to The Best New Comer Neal Coombes with Rufus (Decoymans Piper Jonagold). They gained 460 KC points and 364 non-KC points!

The Agility League Duck Tollers and their owners have been rather busy during the past year. A number of our members have won various classes in Kennel Club shows which means they go into the next Grade (Grade1 being for starter dog/handlers & Grade 7 being for advanced dog/handlers:-

• Ann Fairweather with Asha (Fallowfen Perfect Ash) just started agility last year in Grade 1 and ended the Toller Agility League season in Grade 4

• Hannah Fairweather with Echo (Austerby Arrival) also started agility last year in Grade 1 and ended the Toller Agility League season in Grade 4

• Jean Luckett with Saffie (Jenkay Blue Moon) started the season in Grade 2 and finished in Grade 3

• Neal Coombes with Rufus (Decoymans Piper Jonagold) started in Grade 3 and moved up in to Grade 4

• Janice Russell with Rio (Shoredancer Shellseeker at Cedarlake) also started in Grade 3 and finished the season in Grade 4

• Alan Holt with Roy (Newfanova Red Apollo) went into Grade 6 – being the third Large Toller ever to achieve this!

Rebecca Membery with Darcey (Decoymans Piper Fellowship) came 6th in The Arden Grange Starter Dog of the Year competition. Mark Williams with Tango (Riverwatcher Kanosak – Medium) won out of UKA Beginners & Novice Steeplechase and is now competing in Senior Steeplechase classes.

Wow! What a terrific year  Amanda Hampson with Rogue (Shoredancer Sea Jade have had! This pair was were selected for the Medium British Team at the European Opens in Austria and got through to the individual final finishing 19^th. They were selected for the British Team at the World Championships in France where the Medium Team came 3rd. They won the very first Medium ABC Final.

I’m sure I speak for all of us in saying a huge WELL DONE to both Amanda and Rogue, for being great ambassadors of the fantastic breed!
