At the 2002 SSCA National Specialty in Pleasanton, California October 18-21, 2002, Halley poses with dad Aaron and mom YD. . .what a family reunion . The day of the National, Halley was high scoring dog in pre-novice and she also took first place in the 12-18 month class all four days.

Halley made her official debut in the agility ring at the Antioch, California trials in June 2003 and literally burned up the 16 inch class. Halley LOVES agility ! When she is on, she is really on. . . running a standard course in 41 seconds (course time was 63 seconds) is nothing unusual for this girl! Running a 111 yard jumpers course in 19.91 seconds (course time was 40 seconds) is par for Halley!
SSCA ranked Halley as #1 Agility Dog Of The Year 2003 - Novice.

Halley spent some time in the pre-novice ring in obedience before making her debut in Novice B and earning her CD title in style ! Her scores in the Novice ring included 191.5, 193, 193.5 (fourth place), 195 (third place), 195 (first place and HIT), 194.5 (first place), 195.5 (first place), 195.5.
