Morgan's Awards and Appearances

Morgan loves to meet people and visit new places. As a result, she's received some exciting recognition. Be sure to check back often, as she's got big dreams ahead of her and hopes to become a star!*

* I wrote that line when I first published this website when Morgan was about 3 months old...I can't believe what she's done so far and can't imagine what's still to come!

 



March 4, 2003

Extra did an interview with Morgan at the Miss Dog pageant and aired some footage of her doing agility (her "talent" performed in the pageant) in a piece about upcoming reality shows on TV. Extra's website has the story and the video online.

9News Weather Report

April 27, 2002

9News sent their News crew to report Sunday morning's weather live from an Agility Trial. Morgan, Ali, and I showed up a little early to be "background fillers" for the report. Since Ali wasn't entered in the trial, she was allowed to go on the equipment in the background during the report. You can see her toward the end running across the dog walk. She's pretty fast so if you blink you might miss her first TV appearance!

Rocky Mountain Sports Report on FOX Sports Net

Television feature with Keith Bleyer, aired March 12, 2002

I think maybe Keith just wanted one of Morgan's cool "Air Morgan" t-shirts, so he did a feature on his news show, The Rocky Mountain Sports Report, about Agility and Flyball. The feature included footage of the D.E.O. Speedwaggin' Flyball Team dogs running Flyball and Agility, and interviews with Zona Tooke, Jessica Abshire, Keri Caraher, and of course Morgan. Keith ran against Morgan in a Flyball race (yes, he even brought back the ball in his mouth!), and he handled her on an Agility course. It was a lot of fun, the entire segment is about 10 minutes long and had me laughing the entire time.

Morgan's entry in the Cutest Pet Contest

AKC Article

at AKC.org in September 2001

At an Agility Trial in Lake Elmo, Minnesota we had the opportunity to perform with AKC Senior Agility Field Rep and USA Team Coach Dan Dege. He was pretty impressed with Morgan's 3 consecutive clean runs in Excellent B Standard courses, and wrote up a little article about Morgan for the AKC website:
