Agent came to us from Lisa & Kenny Payne, of Aasil Siberians, in Bend, OR. He has a temperament to die for; he absolutely adores every human he meets, especially kids. He is easy to live with (though not without his Siberian quirks ;)), and an absolute joy to train. He is always so happy and engaged while working together.

Agent's passion is nose work, and he is really dang good at it! We primarily compete in NACSW, but he has done a couple AKC and USCSS trials as well. He is just 1 leg away from his NW3-Elite title!

Agent has foundations in agility & we had a blast taking classes for a few years but we never ended up trialing as he was not protective of his own body (!) and he has grade 1 luxating patellas which has lead to some early arthritis in his knees. We have also done a fair bit of rally training but just never ended up competing.

He has done some barn hunt and earned his novice BH title but not being able to reinforce in the ring isn’t his favorite so we started competing in NASDA in 2022. So far he has earned his UL1 title and then earned a Best of Breed and High in Class in his first UL2 run with a time of 5.3 seconds! He earned his TL1 title in fall 2023, and is well on his way to his UL2 now.

In 2024 he also earned a therapy dog certification and has been enjoying monthly visits to various locations in the community. Agent gets so excited to visit, it has been a perfect semi-retirement activity for him. :)
