Halley lives in Reno, Nevada with her mom Ladonna, dad Tom and doggie brother Zimmer.

Halley has 9 points toward her championship title. As a puppy, she loved to strut her stuff around the ring and went "best puppy in match" at a couple different fun matches.

At the 2002 SSCA National Specialty in Pleasanton, California October 18-21, 2002, 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. 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.

Along the way, Halley and Ladonna were fortunate to have received many placements, and a few perfect scores.

The next day she also qualified in Open just for insurance.
