Harley, Australian Shepherd, CRN 931123
From the SPCA to the flyball course, fourteen-year-old Harley, an Australian Shepherd, has always been a recognizable figure in Region 6/16 since her debut in 1991 with Bark in the Park. Easily spotted by her trademark harlequin face and natural bobbed tail, Harley has consistently been in NAFA’s top 5 Australian Shepherds since beginning her career. Dependable and versatile, Harley was deemed Most Enthusiastic Dog at the 1995 Jumps N Jackpots Tournament. Harley has done more than her fair share to promote the sport of flyball. She has exposed millions through performances at the 49er’s games, Oakland A’s, Sacramento Kings, LA Clippers, Phoenix Suns, Harlem Globetrotters, and many more. Her community involvement includes the Oakland Children’s Hospital, Center for the Developmentally Disabled, and the Shriner’s Hospital for Crippled Children. Her competitive eleven-year career ended in 2002 when she retired from Leap of Faith Flyball Team. Still healthy and active in her senior years, Harley is instrumental in training her team’s future players. A true ambassador to the sport of flyball, Harley has earned the right to sit among other flyball greats who have molded the sport into what it is today. Please vote Harley for the Region 16 Most Valuable Player.
