Mirk








Meet “Mirk”- a handsome, blue eyed, tri-coloured youngster, born April 20th 2007. A half brother to “Ceri”; he is also sired by Peter Gonnet’s “Moss”, out of a smooth coated bitch named “Gail”, who has been a very useful cattle dog for Peter, as well as a producer of very versatile, steady-minded offspring. Gail’s breeding includes Peter’s former “Mac”, who went back to Longton’s “Glen”; who was imported and sold through Sask. Agribition a number of years ago, and was handled by Dale Montgomery –  Glen was a tremendous large flock dog, and sired offspring with lots of power and working ability.

Mirk has a very happy, responsive personality, and gets along with all dogs and people. He shows a great deal of promise in his work, in that he is starting off very keen, with a confident, fearless approach to sheep, and yet is very responsive and easily handled. He has  ‘kind power’ and is not excessively grippy, but has a sensibility and resiliency that I look for in prospective top work and trial dogs. Watch for future updates, as Mirk’s training gets underway this spring/summer....!
“Introducing MarCar Rick CBCA 6157”

RICK
RYAN
               
If it was possible to turn back the clock eleven years, then it would be hard to imagine a pup more reminiscent of Ryan, than his young son, Rick ! I couldn’t be more delighted with this pup, as he is fearless and confident, yet very responsive and steady-minded. He has his father’s terrific structure and substance, and is already ‘working’ anything that moves. He goes back to my foundation sire, “Vic” on both sides of his pedigree at the third generation- so not surprising that he also reminds me in ways of his great grandfather as well... !










 




SOLD
Talented, well started young male for sale: “Fling CBCA 4060”, born March 7/2005.

  
 “Fling” will make a very talented sheep trial dog, or working flock dog, and is ready to trial P/N this season.  He outruns, drives, knows flanks commands and is on whistles. His foundation training was done with Martha McHardy on the Parry Bay flock, and then he has spent the fall with Peter Gonnet in Sask to further his experience and skills. Two litter sisters are both trialling successfully in Novice, and Fling is easily handled and straightforward to work with. The top side of his pedigree includes Peter Gonnet’s ‘Moss’, Martha McHardy’s “Vic”, and he goes back to Daziels’s ‘Wisp’ on his maternal side. See “For Sale” page for more details.

Sale Pending

Started  15 month old female for sale: “Boots” sired by B Berhow’s ‘Pete’ X D. Marroni’s ‘Darma’. See Sale page for more info.






Rainier’s Ryan CBCA 134747



After many years of competing at local, national, and international levels, Ryan’s last trip to the post with Martha McHardy was at the West Coast Sheepdog Trial, where at 10 ½ yrs of age, he finished Second on Aug 19th under judge Randy Dye. Over his long career, Ryan qualified and competed at both USA and Canadian National Finals multiple times, as well as won and placed in many local trials throughout the northwest. At home, he has been a tremendous large flock dog; always ready for the toughest job and unfailing in his desire to work; he shone under the most challenging conditions, that showcased his great command and feel for stock. I am honored to have had him for my partner these many years, and am grateful for the time we shared, and for what he taught me in our time together. He was unique: not just in coloring - but in the high regard I held for him.



Meet the new dogs that have joined MarCar kennels this spring…


I recently acquired this large smooth coated male dog, as I was impressed by his natural feel for sheep, and fluid, smooth working style, which was deceptive, given his size. Scott has a cool headed method of work that I like, with the ability to handle ewes and lambs with calm authority. He is sired by imported Scott, by Templeton’s Spot ISDS 210921. I expect him to be an easy dog to finish his training to trial standards - watch for him in the upcoming year. Scott” is DNA Normal for CEA (OptiGen certificate).
PEDIGREE










“Ben” is a young and talented 2008 Nursery prospect, sired by L Froelich’s Robbie CABC 110232- himself a littermate to Peter Gonnet’s Moss CABC 110231, out of a K.  Kuykendale bred bitch, Gwen CBCA 4330. His lines also include Dale Montgomery’s Gyp, who has won the Calgary Stampede Stockdog Championships more times than any other dog to date, T Wilson’s great dog Roy ABCA 3455, and imported Glen ABCA 42194; son of Longton’s Roy ISDS 166366. This stylish young tri-colour male brings lots of intensity and talent to his work, and has an abundance of courage and intitiative that is balanced by his responsiveness to training and handling.



MarCar Jem ( CBCA 5576)
 
Little “Jem” is very reminiscent of her father; Delta Blz Rhaq ABCA 227128, while retaining the best qualities of her mother, Jazzy ABCA 243939. With her lovely nature and confident manner, she is a pup who shows indications of a great future ahead of her! PEDIGREE
