Dutch Champion Mr. Jones

Latest news: Jones joined Tigger and me to the World Cup Series Finals Dog Frisbee in Scottsdale, Arizona on 3, 4 and 5 November 2006! Jones won the 8th place in the mini-distance competition.

Mr. Jones is Cajun's son out of her first litter. He lives with us at our farm in Beerzerveld. Mr. Jones is a good help with our sheep and ducks, loves to play frisbee, is very agile, likes obedience, doggydancing, agility and the kids! He is very outgoing, friendly towards strangers and a real gentleman. He's been with us on vacation many times and especially likes to hike in the mountains and swim in the rivers. Jones also helps me out at the dog training school a lot. He has a fabulous temperament, a wonderful gait and a very nice will to please. He works, as my other aussies, in the youth jail a couple of times a year. He always works with the kids that are scared of dogs. Jones is just wonderful... He also works as a therapy dog with handicapped people and with children who have difficulties reading and concentrating. He's been on Dutch television and in the radio studios many times. He loves to get attention and is extremely friendly towards people.

 

Mr. Jones got his first reserve winners dog at the age of one year under ASCA breeder-judge Carol Ann Hartnagle at the ASCA show in Königswinter in October 2001. She said to me: this is really, truly an Aussie! He got a fourth place at the Winner in 2001, a reserve championship in Zuidlaren in 2002. At the conformation show at Leeuwarden on the 21st of April 2003 Jones scored his last point for his Dutch Champion title. Jones is the first Australian shepherd male who was bred and still lives in Holland who received this title. At this conformation show he also participated in the brace class with his brother Barrel with 25 other couples. And they won the class!!!

On the Australian shepherd Championship Conformation Show 2002 Jones became the winner in the breeder class and reserve winner of 47 dogs.

And..... he did it again in 2004 by winning the bred by exhibitor class under American judge Marjorie Tuff and he was reserve winner dog again! Barrel and Jones got the first place in the brace class and Jones and his brothers Barrel, Cinnamon Twist and Cajun's Mix got the price for the best breeder group, all at the same show with 104 entries! Jones made his debut in the frisbee championships. He and Hans participated at the NK- and EK. He got an 8th place at both events and a 9th place at the Mitch Challenge Cup. With Karen he achieved the 13th place at the European championships in Belgium 2004.

Child & dog project

Child & dog project with Mr. Jones!

Our Mr. Jones has passed the very heavy behaviour test for the "child and dog program". So he visits schools at regular bases with Karen to teach children how to behave with dogs. Jones is the second aussie in Holland who has passed the very heavy behaviour test. We also visit schools to help children with reading. He does a wonderful job...

Jones, Tigger, Hans and I were asked for regional television to make a program about dog frisbee in October 2002. Jones also participated in a promotion video for a county in the eastern part of Holland. And Jones, Tigger and Karen gave a dog frisbee demo with the DogFrisbeeFriends in the break of a soccer competition at the full Heracles stadium in June 2004!
