Dawn has been on a roll in agility in the spring of 2026. She earned her master jumpers (MXJ) title on March 8th and her master standard (MX) title on March 15th.

2026 started off with a bang with Polly earning her MACH4 and Sloane earning his PACH2 on Saturday, January 3, 2026.  Both needed two double Qs headed into the weekend and they both had a perfect weekend.

Polly and Sloane ran at the 2025 AKC Agility Invitational and they had a very successful event.  Polly was clean in all of her runs and finished 10th in the 20" class earning a spot in the finals. She won 8th place in the finals and she earned the IWS breed medallion for being the top IWS at the event. Sloane was clean in 3 out of the 4 runs finishing as the 2nd ranked IWS.  It was a fabulous event.

Dawn earned three new agility titles over the Thanksgiving Cluster agility trial November 21st - 24th, 2025. She earned her excellent standard, excellent jumpers and excellent fast titles. She also earned her first MACH points.

Sloane and Polly competed at the Northeast Agility Championship on November 21st/22nd, 2025. Both qualified for their height class with Sloane qualifying as the #1 16" preferred dog. He finished 2nd in the finals.  Polly qualified 8th in the huge 20" class and finished 4th, just out of the ribbons.

Dawn earned her first performance title on August 31, 2025 by earning her novice jumpers with weaves title.  She loves agility!

The 2025 AKC agility invitational qualification period is over and all three dogs are qualified!! Polly, with limited trialing due to her beautiful litter of 8 puppies is the #1 qualifier for 2025.  Sloane is #4 regular and #2 preferred qualifier and Flare is #1 preferred qualifier.  Look out Florida, here we come!

Polly earned her triple Q excellent title (TQX) on July 19, 2025. This title is earned by qualifying in master standard, jumpers with weaves and fast all on the same day 10 times. It is pretty hard to achieve and Polly is one of the few IWS to have earned this title.

Sloane earned his PACH title (preferred agility championship) on July 12, 2025 with a beautiful double Q and two second place runs.

On June 26, 2025, Flare earned her PACH5. She now holds the record for the most PACHs earned by an Irish Water Spaniel. She earned 5 PACHs in less than 2 years.

Dawn won reserve winner's bitch at both the 2025 regional and national IWSCA specialties.  

Sloane was high in trial (HIT) preferred agility at the IWSCA national specialty. He was the only dog to earn a double Q at the trial.  He also in earned a rally RAE leg by qualifying in both excellent and advance B rally classes.
