Jane in January of 2007.
Jane is the unassuming little black tri sister to Cartman. She looks like a black tri version of her mother, Pony. Jane started her trialing career in the ranch dog-sheep class. She earned a qualifying score the first time out! She is an excellent sheep dog. She instinctively knows which animal is the leader and keeps a close eye on him. She has a very wide circle (like most of the Roper kids.) However, she isn't as 'loose eyed' as her father. She comes to balance nicely and stops on her own. She is a very honest dog and does not split her stock, even if you are out of position. She is a pleasure to work and makes me look like a good handler!
Jane's hips were rated Good by OFA (AS-21593G24F-PI) and her eyes were CERF clear in 2008. She stands about 17" tall and weighs about 35 pounds.
Jane has a very sweet people oriented temperament. She loves to cuddle on the couch when not working. She can be reserved with dogs she doesn't know. Jane is like her littermates. They are all high drive and easy to motivate. It was an amazing versatile litter. Several of her littermates (Rowdy, ATCH Scout and Ryder) are excelling at agility. And her brother Cartman is has earned his WTCH. Cartman and Otter have both earned ASCA conformation majors. Otter already has 11 points towards her A-CH.

Jane's first litter with WTCH RocknG's Kodiak Bear when they were puppies. Pictures of them around 6 months. This litter has turned out to be absolutely stunning in looks and talent. Her daughter Raven has already earned all her started stock titles and has a career appearing on QVC. Her daughter Kitty is in training in agility and is working at the elite/excellent level.
