Agility
Sola is currently at grade 3 in agility, after only competing for just over 3 months. She is extremely food and handler driven, and will work for toys too but prefers her food! She came runner up in the Iconix Medium 1-3 Final in 2023. You can watch her running here.
Temperament
Sola’s temperament is second to none; she probably likes people TOO much! She doesn’t know a stranger, and insists on cuddles and belly rubs no matter what you’re doing. She gets on well with all dogs, she’s even wormed her way into the heart of my temperamental, reactive spaniel who adores her.
More about Sola
Everyone that meets Sola falls in love with her, she really is a fantastic little dog. She’s the epitome of what I think MAS should be and what I aim to produce in my program; she’s got an incredible temperament, and is always up for whatever you ask of her and she always puts 100% in. We’ve dabbled in hoopers, scentwork, and trick training, and are aiming to compete occasionally in obedience.

Sola is from Rebel Soul Mini American Shepherds based in Oregon, USA. I got to meet her mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and great grandfather, as well as multiple sisters and half sisters. They all have a temperament just like Sola. She has a unique pedigree that is hard to find, especially in Europe.
