This litter is now competing on stock and is doing quite well. Most of them are being worked on a regular basis. They show very good instinct, nice balance and a big circle. Roper is stamping his kids with his exceptional temperament, talent and good looks!
Angus - WTCH Malpaso's Black Bull-Et Proof CD, RTDcs, DNA-VP
Angus became Roper's first WTCH before his 3rd birthday. We are very proud of his
accomplishments at such a young age. Congratulations to Maarten and Mirjam Walter
on his success!
Angus won his class at a FCI show in Germany in the Spring of 2002. Here is what the judge's comments were:
"Excellent rear, very good balance, wonderful temperament, lovely topline, moves a little wide in front, lovely dark eyes".
After relocating to south Georgia, Angus has done quite well in the puppy conformation ring earning a
Best of Breed puppy at an AKC show in late 2002 as well as several group placements.
His sister Jubalee (Malpaso's A Shot in The Dark OTDs, STDdc DNA-VP) already has a reserve winners bitch under her belt, beating her
mother for that award!

Malpaso's Aim 'n' Fire STDscd, DNA-VP (Atlanta) is Roper's first offspring to earn a
qualifying score in ASCA. At the GAASC Spring Trial March 14th, 2003, she earned a
Started Sheep score. She now has all three of her Started titles.

GiGi (WTCH Sunlight's Army of One, RS-E, JS-E-OP, GS-E-OP, DNA-VP - owned by

Gigi made her MVA debut at the 2004 Paso Robles ASCA Nationals. She qualified and
came in 24th out of 92 dogs at the age of 20 months. She qualified in every class
she entered towards MVA that week!
In 2005 Gigi placed 9th in MVA out of almost 80 dogs! In the Nationals Stock trial she won Open Cattle, was 3rd in Open Sheep and qualified in Open Ducks. She had the second highest combined Open scores.
Gigi is almost done with her ATCH. She has completed the requirements for jumpers and gamblers. Now she just needs a few more regular qualifiers to finish.
In 2005 Riser won the Started Sheep class at the National Stock Trial. He also qualified for MVA!
In 2006, Riser qualified for and competed in the ASCA Agility Finals. That week he qualified for MVA and came in 15th out of over 70 dogs! At barely 4 years old, Riser completed his ATCH (Agility Trial Champion title). Riser is Roper's first ATCH!

obedience dog. The puppies have all gone to performance homes and we expect great things
from them!
