6/15/16 Update from Kim: McCoy has been progressing well in agility. McCoy's current CPE titles are: CL2-R (just one more Q to get his level 3 title!) Colors Level 3 and Wildcard Level 2 - CL1-H Snooker and Jackpot Level 3 - CL2-S Full House and Jumpers Level 3 - CL2-F He also received the Columbia Agility Team Spring Classic High in Level 3 recognition this last April. 
 6/14/15 Update from Kim: We have done three other trials this spring (so far just CPE trials but we might try an AKC trial later this summer). He's running at level 2 for Standard. I think he needs 2 more Qs to move to level 3. In our last trial he qualified in level 1 jumpers. He's only done 4 official trials but it's totally clicked for him that trials are super fun. He is so fast! :) 11/20/14 Update from Kim: McCoy is doing great! We went to our first CPE agility trial this August. He qualified in 3 of his 5 runs (level 1) and got first in one of them! I was very proud of him. He did great for his first trial. We are planning on doing more trials this spring and summer. Sadly, McCoy's beautiful life was cut short by lymphoma |

CTC Rustic Copper Bullet CDX RA OA AXJ - "Rusty"
CTC Dashiell Hamett’s Thin Man CGC THDD - "Dash"
Dash has achieved Therapy Dog Distinguished (THDD), the highest level of therapy dog title currently available through the AKC. It signifies that a minimum of 400 visits have been completed. Dash and Donna have made a bit over 400 visits total and have over 600 hours in visit time. Just over 300 of the visits were done specifically at The Ronald McDonald House and they have done some other visits and events as well. He also was given a CGC based on his therapy dog work.
Update from Donna, March 2013:
Dash just got his certification to work off-leash at therapy dog visits. He is only the 5th dog in the organization that has ever been able to pass the exam. It was tough, but he was a champion! So proud of him!
Update from Donna, March 2011:
Recently, we have been volunteering at the Ronald McDonald House in Seattle as a therapy dog team. The children absolutely LOVE Dash as do the staff and parents. He brings so much happiness and joy and smiles! As I arrived for my last visit I literally had children waiting at the door to see him. After I was there for a bit I found out that “one of our kids” is in the hospital due to a systemic infection, (her body is run down from chemo). Her mom stopped by and took a picture of Dash and immediately text messaged it to her daughter in the hospital. It makes me so happy to know that this mother felt like even a picture of Dash would cheer her child.
I have been told many times, (and several times just recently), that Dash is “the perfect Aussie,” and I still have the experience on a regular basis of people yelling at me from across the street or out their car windows how beautiful he is when I walk him in my Green Lake neighborhood.
Update from Donna, 7/5/08:
I just wanted to let you know that today Dash and I passed the Delta Society examination and he is now a certified therapy dog! We passed at Level 2, their highest rating, so we can visit "complex environments." (This means he is considered "bullet proof safe" and can go anywhere - to see children, go in psychiatric wards, etc.) I'm so proud of him! The average age of a dog that passes the exam is 4, so the fact that he could pass at the complex level at only age 2 is really amazing. A testament to his breeding and good mind!
And to what a great job you've done with him, Donna! Thanks for doing us proud and giving Dash such a great and fulfilling life!
