Where do I begin to tell you about my Amazing Meg.  She is my first border collie (but probably not my last!) I brought her home during the ice storm in January 1998.  Her agility career started a bit late, but she’s certainly made up for lost time. While she’s not the fastest border collie you’ll see, and maybe not the most exciting, I’ll wager that she IS the most consistent. We've been to many trials where she has not made a single mistake. And EVERYONE knows when she’s running, because she tells everyone with her bark that she’s having a great time!  She has taught me so much about loyalty, dedication, humilty, and true friendship.

I think her record speaks for itself…
