    Blaze (HIC, BPIS, MBPIG Am/Cdn Ch Tollwest Blaze Of Fire PCD, CGN, PCD) is a beautiful female from Cayenne's first litter. Blaze was originally co-owned by Simone Sortwell of Tollchester Kennels and myself, but now that I have leased Blaze for her first litter, her ownership is being transferred completely to Simone. Blaze is very sweet and affectionate, and loves to swim and retrieve. She has a small white tail tip, white feet, white chest, and a narrow blaze of white on her face. She has excellent bone, a wonderful head & expression, ideal tailset and great length of leg. Blaze has beautiful balance with full reach and drive. 18.25" and 35.5 lbs.

    Her conformation debut was in May/03, where she won Best Puppy in Breed both days, and also picked up her first point at only a couple days past 6 months old! She placed 4th in a very strong class of 9 Junior females at the 2003 Canadian National, and later that day won Best Puppy In Group in the all-breed show! The following week, she picked up a 2 pt Winners Bitch & 2 Best Puppy In Breed. She returned to the show ring in Sept/03 - on the Friday she won Best of Breed, Group 4th & Best Puppy in Group! Then on Saturday, she won Best of Breed, Group 4th and Best Puppy In Show, to finish her Championship on her 10 month birthday! After that, she was specialed on a limited basic, with numerous Best Of Breed wins to her credit. She finished of 2004 as #4 Toller in Canada, and #1 Bitch! The decision was made to campaign her for 2005, and she has done extremely well. She is unofficially the #1 Toller so far this year according to my calculations, also she is very close to making it into the top 10 Sporting! She was BOB at the 2005 BC Toller Booster in July. On Aug 20/05 Blaze made breed history by being the first female Toller to ever win an all-breed CKC Best In Show! In Sept, she won an Judge's Award of Merit at the 2005 Canadian National Specialty in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and later that same day won a Reserve Best in Show! Less than a month later she headed to Albany, Oregon for the US National Specialty were she won another Judge's Award of Merit! She has also been invited to attend Crufts in 2007.

    In May/04 she made her AKC show debut, and came home with a 3 pt major, Best of Breed and Group 4th her first day out! She soon picked up a second 3 pt major BOB, followed by two 2 pt BOS wins. She finished her Am Ch early this spring.

    She is working extremely well in obedience, and graduated from Advanced Obedience at only 5.5 months old. She made her obedience debut at only 7 months old, and had 2 legs towards her PCD (Pre-Novice obedience title) before she turned 8 months! She now has her CGC & CGN titles and finished her PCD title in the next available trial at 12 months old. She now has 1 leg towards her CD (Companion Dog) and should be finishing the title soon. She is also training in agility, flyball, tracking and field.

    Blaze was born and raised on BARF, with both her parents also being BARF fed! Her eyes are CERF normal (Oct/05), hips are OFA Good, heart is OFA normal, thyroid is normal. I leased her for her first litter, bred to "Tango" - Am/Can Ch Tollwest Dances With Waves CD TG-N TN-N CGN...we have a beautiful litter of 3 boys born Jan 3/06, you can see pics here.
