    • Wicca in Finnish database

    Wicca is a combination of speed, dangerous situations and an immense will to please. Wicca is an awesome, easy dog in everyday life. She loves cuddling and doesn't care about anyone but me. At home she's very calm, but when we get to the agility field, she goes completely crazy. In agility Wicca is a race car! Sometimes her brains get left behind at the starting line, but this too has gotten better with age. Wicca is crazy about balls, but tug-of-war and food are also always acceptable rewards. In herding she's noticeably calmer and works with a good concentration, always getting even the more stubborn animals moving. Wicca is very much a one-person dog, but doesn't guard other than announcing guests. She tolerates other dogs as long as they don't try to get too familiar.

    Wicca's first litter is almost two years old, and the puppies have all inherited her fierce attitude in sports, play-drive and confidence. None of them are scared of noises or otherwise very sensitive. Most are serious working dogs who don't care about other people or dogs when they get to work for their owner - just like Wicca!

    • Linus's webpage

    I met Linus for the first time in an ASCA agility trial in Austria in 2016. I noticed a very handsome red male that was tied to the wall during the competition. He was calmly sitting there and wagged his tail at me when I walked past. I was interested in the handsome, sizable male so I asked around whose dog it was and from which kennel it was from. When I found Linus's owner Julia and she took me to meet Linus. He made an impression on me with his happy, friendly character and the calm, confident behavior at the competition. He didn't whine or bark after his owner, but when it was his turn, he turned out to be a fast and intense agility dog! Just the kind of combination that I like.

    Linus is an imported male from Canada, and his pedigree is full of working lines that are rare in Europe. He trains and competes in various in different sports, and is healthy, social, handsome and big. Linus also has the same kind of intensity as Wicca. All around a perfect match for Wicca!

    • >>>Noita's own page

    Noita stayed at home to become my next agility dog. She is a very fast, agile girl who loves to run and tug toys. She is also very greedy and has been easy to train with so far. She is cuddly, loves her pack dogs and gets well along with other dogs too. I have high hopes that she will be my next competitive agility speed monster like her mom. She is more of a thinker though, and has been learning verbal cues very nicely. In herding she is calm and sensitive to pressure. She is getting more confidence all the time, and I think she will be a nice, thinking type of dog with less pressure and more eye than speed. 

    RED'N READY VOLCANIC WINTER "Katla"

    • female
    • red merle w, long tail
    • height 50 cm, weight 16 kg
    • hips A/A, elbows 0/0, back LTV1 VA0, shoulders OCD free
    • free through parents of CEA, PRA. DM, HSF4, MDR1
    • eyes clear as a pup, correct bite & teeth
    • competes in agility class 1
    • owner Anne Barck, Vantaa

    Katla moved to live with Anne and her two aussies Jedi and Leia who are both bred by me. Katla was the biggest pup of the litterbox but now it looks like she is the smallest but with biggest ears - just like Leia from Wicca's first litter! Katla is a happy, easygoing puppy who is training mostly agility but she also excels at tricks and is a professional model despite her young age.  Katla spends her days either bothering her uncle Jedi or playing with big sister Leia. She is very food motivated, loves to play and tug and is always happy to see her relatives too. She is not the most dominant pup in the litter, but gets along well with everybody. She has been to try herding once so far and was without a doubt very interested in them. Katla will for sure have an active life with all kinds of activities and adventures!

    FCI HWT PAIM1 RED'N READY NUCLEAR MELTDOWN "Sheya"

    • female
    • red tricolor, long tail, brown eyes
    • height 50 cm, weight 16 kg
    • hips A/A, elbows 0/0, back LTV0 VA0, shoulders OCD free
    • free through parents of CEA, PRA. DM, HSF4, MDR1
    • eyes clear as a pup, correct bite & teeth

    • competes in agility class 1, passed FCI herding working test HWT, competes in class 1

    Sheya is a spirited, super active and social and friendly girl. She lives in a big dog pack and gets along well with everyone and is a real goof ball. Her owners love her and she is mainly focusing on agility. In agility she is super fast, athletic and has developed very fast. She is also doing a bit of herding and shows promise in that as well. She is a "smiling" dog and they are very similar with Loitsu and remind me of their grandmom Dracu. Sheya had some health issues in fall 2020 after her heat, but we hope she will make a full recovery and will be spayed. The health issue looks like it might be ITP (Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura) but is still under diagnosis. We hope that Sheya will make a full recovery not matter what the diagnosis will be.

    • Loitsu's own page

    Loitsu had an accident at the age of 4,5 weeks and her other eye needed to be removed. Because of this we just could not sell her and ended up keeping her here with her sister. So far the missing eye does not effect her at all that we can notice. She is a sweetheart, likes to cuddle and loves biting, running and doing any activity. She is a bit more hard than her sister, and not usually very interested in strange people. She is very food motivated, loves to play tug with people and reminds me a ton of her grandmom Dracu, and that is the biggest compliment I can give.

He is doing a lot of working dog sports like tracking and searching as well as the obedience work that comes with that. Eino is a all-around dog and likes to do anything he is asked of. His owner regularly calls me to tell that Eino is the best, all she hoped for and more. I am sure they have an amazing trial career in front of them!
