Kimi is a fun dog to have around, she has a great recall and is a fast learner. She is great with other dogs and people, and will seek permission before she goes to greet them on her walks.

Hobbs is kind, gentle and very loving. He is great off lead and is very easy and quiet to have around. He was on Michael Tetzners main team for 6 years and had many excellent results at some of the best known sprint races including Fur Rondy and ONAC.
He is a sensible, reliable dog and worth his weight in gold. He enjoys a game of fetch and chewing on bones, and will often be hanging out with his brother. He is happy to run anywhere on the team, and really excels in wheel. His strength of mind and body is a great asset to the team. Put him in lead and he is a fast and reliable leader, who is very focused on his job. He also enjoys going solo with the bike and responds to commands very well. This season he has been racing with Viper in DS2 and is still going strong.

Better known as Connor to his friends, he is littermate to Hobbs. Connor is a fun loving kind of dog and quite the character! He is an easy dog to have around and is good off lead. Super friendly with a good level head, he too was on Michael Tetzners main team for 6 years. Connor is now retired. When he was running in harness he was strong, reliable and always worked hard. He was a versatile dog and would run anywhere on the team. Just before his 8th birthday he started learning to lead, and took to this like a duck to water, which is a great testament to his character. His favourite hobby is just watching the world go by, he is a bit of a thinker... Occasionally he can be seen throwing a tennis ball around for himself, or having a little play with the other dogs

He listens to commands very well, and ignores distractions on the trail, a very focussed and committed dog who is happy to run anywhere on the team and is a strong and confident leader.

Viper is a super friendly and very sweet girl. She is very easy to have around the place and gets along with everybody. At home she loves nothing better than to snuggle up and have a cuddle with whoever is available at the time! In harness she is a very driven and hardworking bitch. She will run anywhere and is a very valuable asset to our team. She especially enjoys running solo on the bike. A quietly confident and gentle dog, until the harnesses comes out and then it's game on! She has fire in her belly for sure... This season she has paired up with Hobbs to form an older, experienced two dog scooter team and has loved every minute!

Sire - Hobbs
Dam - Kimi
Echo is a bright and bubbly girl with bags of confidence and character. She has beautiful conformation and is naturally a very fast bitch. She has just completed her 1st racing season, starting off with the older dogs and eventually moving into the "Dark Destroyer" squad. Right from the word go she has ran as straight as an arrow and has been very confident and focussed in harness. She currently runs anywhere on the team, and has spent most of the season in swing and wheel where she has really excelled. With racing season over she will be learning a little more about running in lead. Echo has been perfect from the very 1st time she ran in harness and we're excited to see how she grows and develops towards next racing season.
Echo has a wonderful nature and is great with other dogs and people, she has a fantastic recall and really is a fun dog to be around!
