Meet London!
London is from our good friend Kelli Herbst/Orion Border Collie's breeding of Imported Myth to our MACH2 Player RN BCAT MXS MJB MXP MJP DMA DSX AMX ASA PT, 2x Skyhoundz World Champion. To see more information about this breeding, click here.
London has a big personality, very much larger than life, much like his father Player. He has a silly and exuberant personality when he's not working, but also loves to work and play. He loves Frisbee and is showing good progress there. He is a natural tracker and has nice “hops”. London has been training in agility and is a team player, with good focus and drive, and is a nice jumper. He has qualified for the 2021 USDAA National Championship by placing in his division at Regionals (his first USDAA event + first Regional event!), handled by Kaimen Miller.
At his first USDAA/Cynosports Nationals, and in his first year competing in agility altogether, he made it to the Grand Prix finals and placed 2nd in Biathlon Jumpers! At his first UKI US Open, he made it to the Speedstake Finals in which he placed 5th overall! He then became the National Reserve Champion at the US Open in the 22” Master Finals! We are so proud of team London! He was also invited to attend the Purina Incredible Dog Challenge both in agility and the weave racing!
In dock diving he is consistently hitting the top of the master division at only half dock! He recently made his flyball debut and ran a competitive time of 3.8 and set a new PB shortly after with a 3.78! He is showing tons of progress in multiple sporting venues and we are so excited to see what he can do in the future. We love that he can keep such a level head when in drive.
While London and his littermates from the Player/Myth breeding overall have good temperaments and are nice athletes, there have been some temperament issues produced from his dam, Myth, who as of late 2019 is under new ownership, and her litter sister "Babble". At this time there are no breeding plans for London and he is not available at stud. While he is a great athlete (with solid nerves/temperament) and proving himself in multiple areas, we take temperament very seriously in our program.
London lives in Florida with our trusted friend Babz who also owns Kitty (Player/Jenga!). We are excited to watch him grow and advance in sports with Babz.
