More About Kepler
Kepler's Bio (from his owner):
Kepler is a true versatile dog. Conformation Champion, Agility Champion , Rally Master, Obedience Companion Dog Excellent and has also done sheep herding. He is a boy that is as versatile as they come and will do anything that I ask of him with a kind willing attitude and with joy. He has competed and won the Starter Stakes Division at the NADAC Agility Championships, has been invited to the AKC Rally Championships, and also the AKC Obedience Championships. He is not only versatile, he is versatile with championships and high-level titles in a variety of performance areas.
At home he has a wonderful off switch and is just happy hanging out with his buddy Newton and me. However, when we are ready to go to work, he has incredible drive and will give 110 percent. He shows his consistent work ethic with his high level of successes in Conformation as well as many different performance areas.

More About Token
Token's Bio:
Token is a petite, spunky import all the way from Hungary. In just over 2 years, she has achieved over 20 titles, awards, and certificates through AKC, AHBA, and BCSA. We show and compete in a variety of activities together, including: conformation, herding, scentwork, rally, disc, dock diving, and fast CAT. In conformation, Token finished her Championship at 14 months old and is 2 points shy of her Grand Championship. She picked up a few NOHS group placements in her limited showing. Token has impressed me with her ability to pick up activities quickly, and she shows promise in just about everything we try together. Token's food drive is incredibly high, and she also has great toy drive. She took to water like a fish, as well. Our main activity together is herding. Token is very kind, biddable, and patient working stock with good stock sense on both sheep and ducks. She is the best partner I could ask for on this journey. As a companion at home, Token is a really bouncy and snuggly girl. She also greatly enjoys going on bikejoring and off-leash adventures with me.
