Cha Cha Cha is a beautiful, happy girl named after the famous ChaCha Muldowney (her whole litter was named for race drivers), but she was going to be renamed until my 2 year old granddaughter came into the room, scooped her up and said

"oh my ChaChaCha"

and gave her a big kiss on the head-- then it was a done deal: ChaChaCha it stayed.

ChaCha was bred by Lori McClelland of Gottabe Aussies. We knew from the start that there was something special in this little girl and gave her the chance to prove it; and following in the foot steps of her parents, ChaCha started her show career off with a bang!

At the Sacramento Rarities & NAKC show she took all 4 herding group puppies and 2 of the 4 Best in Show Puppy! At the UKC Salt Lake City Show in May 07, she took all the Non Regular Aussie puppy classes and again in the Aug 07--Rancho Cordova CA -- Cha Cha takes her first Best of Breed & Group placement over finished dogs on 19 Aug giving her her first points toward her UKC and MASCA Championships!!!

Currently we are working on obedience and our CGC and will begin training for herding trials in the fall
