On this page, I will introduce us and our dogs.
We are Jos and Tanja, and we are living in Kerkrade in the south of the Netherlands. We have 4 Bordercollies, Magic, Cyanda, Fantom and Mystic. Our biggest hobby is Agility. We travel through the whole country to go to competitions. We also sometimes start in Belgium and Germany. Our trainingschool is Lihos in Genk (Belgium). Here we also teach agility. We train also at High Figh in Kerkrade.

I already wanted a dog when I was 3 years old. When I was 7, I had 3 dogs in our street I went walking with.  And when I was 16, at least I became my first own dog, Ricky. After 5 years came Devil, and with him I started with agility. On the training I saw a Bordercollie for the first time. And I fell completely in love, so much will to please and enthousiasm! I knew then that this was the kind of dog I wanted! And so my 2 greatest loves started: Bordercollies and Agility!

At this moment we have 4 Bordercollies:
 

Magic was born on 22 April 1999. She is a  fanatic little girl with a great will to please. Agility she loved most of all. We have run in competitions together from 2000 - 2007. We had a wonderfull time together! Magic is retired now from agility, but in her head she is still full of energy. She likes to make long walks, swimming and running next to the bike.

 

Cyanda was born on 22 April 2004 (Magic's 5th birthday!). Cyanda is a lovely dog who likes to hug and cuttle. She loves it to lie with you on the couch and watch tv together. With strangers she holds back a little but once she knows you she is the sweetest and friendliest dog there is. She knows how to steal everybodies heart! In 2009 Cyanda and I were selected for the IMCA in Gyula, Hungary. Together with the Dutch Team we reached the podium 3 times, and got a 3rd place overall, a great experience! She is a fast little girl but sometimes followes her own head!

 

Fantom is born on 14 Oktober 2006. He is a lovely dog, always friendly and trying to please you. He is a quick learner and not afraid of anything. Fantom is a great dog to work with, he is fast but also in control. In 2010 Fantom and I were selected for the IMCA in Switzerland, and with the Dutch Team we were 3rd on the Agility Run.

Mystic is born on 7 oktober 2009. She is a daughter from our Fantom. Mystic is a clever little girl, she can be very sweet but also shows her own will!

 

 

 

 

In our  heart forever....... 

Tess was born in Scotland on 18 March 1999 and she came to the Netherlands with 11 weeks. Tess was 2 when we started with agility and she runs in the C class since 2004. In 2004 we were also selected for the IMCA, the Agility World Championship for dogs with and without pedigree, and here we got the the 13th place. This was a great experience! Tess is hard worker who always gives her best and never gives up! On 2 December 2009 we lost our dear Tess, totally unexpected and much too early. We will never forget her!
