WAO 2013- team Australia

525 division

NAME: Frank Fitzpatrick DOG NAME: Ella BREED: Border Collie HEIGHT: 525
I started in agility in 1995 with a German Shepherd( Harley). My current dogs are Mako a 7yo New Zealand Heading Dog and Jag 3 yo working Border Collie. Mako and I won the win on spot( 525) to qualify for the 2013 WAO. She has been my most successful dog so far winning at state and national competitions and last year becoming an Australian Agility Champion( love that little dog). Jag has started her agility journey, she is a fast Border Collie, we have had some great runs and some not so great, we are starting to understand each other and becoming a team. She has won at national level and is a very exciting dog to run. Last year I ran my borrowed dog“ Zuma”( Pettrik Kafoes sweet little Border Terrier) that was so much fun. I am looking forward to catching up with friends and meeting some new ones at the 2013 WAO.
