Penson’s Agile Archduck TKE owned by Sophie Penson of Marietta, GA
Sophie Penson is a junior in high school and Ducky is a rescued border collie mix who took to trick training naturally and amazes Sophie every day with how quickly she learns new things. “Ducky has absolutely changed my life and has gotten me through the quarantine, among other events. We live for tricks and training in general, and I forget about stress when I can work with her on fun behaviors,” Sophie said.
They earned their TKE on June 29th, 2020 in their kitchen, performing a skit celebrating their dog-handler bond. “When I go back to watch the video, I’m reminded of how happy she makes me. I am very thankful for such a fun, loyal teammate and for all the opportunities we have had to grow together.”
