Nike’s Uli RN ASCA-CD RAC RNX CGC

“Uli”

 “Uli” is a bi-factored black and white female born February 18th, 2012. Uli is about 34 pounds and 19 inches tall.

Uli is a very special girl to us, as she combines the bloodlines of four dear dogs– Hammie (and thereby Janie and Matches) and Nike. Uli is more like Janie everyday, while still being her own dog, and we couldn’t be happier with her. Uli’s name is pronounced “You-lee” after Tora’s very dear friend Eulynn, a fellow Border Collie lover and Matches’ owner’s sister.

 Uli is shaping up to be an excellent stockdog, with natural wide flanks and lots of drive. We hope to begin ASCA and AHBA herding trials soon, but mostly appreciate her help around the farm. She works sheep, goats, and even alpacas with ease, and is quiet enough to work ducks, geese, and other poultry as well.

She earned her ASCA-RN title at the ripe old age of seven months in three tries with all placements. She earned her ASCA-RA title before she turned a year old in three tries. She passed her CGC test with ease at 8 months. She is doing well with her agility training, although it is taking a back burner to herding lessons, rally practice, and Tora’s vet school work. Uli has legs towards her AKC BN and CD titles, as well as her ASCA-RAC title and we hope to finish those titles early in 2014.

Uli also enjoys hiking with Nike and Tora and is working towards her PD and PDX titles while completing the 100 Missouri Miles Challenge in 2014.

Uli is a fun and fun-loving all-around kind of girl. She loves everyone and everyone loves her! Tora has very high hopes for her in the herding, agility, rally, and obedience circles– at this point it looks like only Tora will be holding Uli back!
