Xena comes from a long line of athletic, accomplished working PWDs who have excelled in the conformation ring. With that pedigree, her skills shouldn’t be a surprise, but she may be my most talented dog yet.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She loves nose work and has excelled since she started competing a little more than two years ago. She is working towards her NW3 (a high-level achievement in another scentwork organization.) In 2023 she became part of a USDA study with Virginia Tech to see if dogs could help find the invasive Spotted Lanernfly.<\/p>\n

She has competed in agility, Fast CAT, Barn Hunt, obedience, and PWDCA Water trials. She has her Novice Tricks Title, and in 2023 was awarded a Bronze Register of Merit award from the PWDCA.<\/p>\n

But she isn’t just a working dog — she is always happy and is thrilled if she sees a tennis ball. She has a steady temperament and isn’t reactive to other dogs or people.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She has a curly black coat, is about <\/span>19.5\u2033 tall, and weighs about 50 pounds.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Xena has had all the testing recommended by the PWDCA (Portuguese Water Dog Club of America.) She is rated Normal and\/or Clear (by parentage) for GM-1, PRA and IC.<\/span><\/p>\n

Xena has been training to find the invasive pest spreading throughout the Northeast, the Spotted lanternfly. She is part of a USDA-funded study at Virginia Tech testing to see if dogs can successfully be used to find Spotted Lanternfly eggs.<\/h4>\n

Xena is now CH Miraval’s Warrior Princess<\/strong>. She won three majors in February 2020 at 11 months – the week before the dog shows stopped because of the pandemic. She finished her championship at the show in Brooksville FL in January 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n
