2008 CSSA Junior Handling Judge
 
 
 Being an ex junior handler I am thrilled to have been asked to judge junior handling at this years CSSA National Specialty.  I got my start in Shelties at the age of three and was hooked ever since.  Over the years my mother Rhonda and I have had great success breeding multiple BIS, BISS, agility and obedience stars under the Tattletails and now Miqelon kennel name.  One of my most thrilling moments was winning our first Best In Show with my 8 month old puppy MBIS  Ch. Miqelon Maid Bi Ridgelynn (Quicha) when I was just 8 years old.  During my juniors career I was lucky enough to have had the opportunity to represent Canada in the World Junior Handling Finals at Crufts twice and was awarded Reserve World Champion twice.   I have been professionally handling other breeds for many years and have piloted many beautiful dogs to championships, group wins and multiple Best In Shows.
I would like to thank the CSSA committee for giving me this opportunity and wish all national participants good luck.
