Huck is a handsome, classically marked tri color male, standing 21 1/2" at the wither and weighing 42 pounds.  He has a very high working drive and a medium eye.  As a homebody he is such a couch potato!  He is definitely the lap dog of the house.   He just loves to slither his long body up into an available lap.  But, whip out a tennis ball and WHAM!!  (its amazing the skid marks he can leave on a body!!).     

As his name suggests, he has a great sense of humor.  His main downfall?  He figures everything has to be done at MachII.  He is very sensitive and takes it to heart if he feels you aren't pleased with him or that he has done something wrong. 

Huck used to run the low to mid 4's in flyball over any height boards.  He was a real entertainer in agility, which he retired from as he was, quite simply, going to kill himself!

Kim does Rally O with Huck.  He has turned in several perfect score performances.  

Huck works his sheep with a strong eye and relaxed body.  He is a joy to work, a great buddy, and all around fun guy!

Unfortunately, due to severe arthritis in his front feet, Huck has retired from the high impact sports.  Kim will continue to do Rally O with him as time permits.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF 

Whistlejack's Jynx On You

portrait by Pam Earl

We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them, as they
prepared for their journey and waved goodbye,
and 'slipped the surly bonds of  earth' to 'touch the face of God.'

- Ronald Regan
