Chaos was the result of a lot of planning and researching.  I had been looking at lines and breeders for a few months, when I had the oppertunity to run a friends dog.  I was instantly in love.  The dog was high drive, eager to please and very fast... AND had very intense herding instinct, if you gave him the oppertunity, he woul shoot off and do an agility course herding style.  I contacted the breeder and as luck would have it, she was repeating the same mating 8 months later.  I immediately booked the puppy and the long wait started...  This gave me time to plan a proper training schedule, which has really paid off in the long term.

Since Chaos's breeder lives on a remote working sheep farm a few hundred kilometers from me and she has no internet access, the first oppertunity I had to see the puppies, was when I had to go and choose my new addition.  There were three males in the litter, but Chaos immediately caught my eye, his keen interest and focus grabbed me and there was no doubt in my mind that this was the right dog for me.

I have had my fair share of problems with Chaos, but he is an absolutely spectacular dog with huge potential in agility.  He is an amazing boy to have at home, his on/off switch works perfectly.  He is the most relaxed dog at home, but the moment he hears the word 'work' he is ready.  And he does not stop, he will try his utmost to please me every step of the way.  I only started competing with him as a three year old and he has achieved a lot since then.  Chaos is definitely my heart dog.
