Happy Shadow's Mochaccino - "Mocha"

Picture
Mocha was born on March 28, 2002.  She is the daughter of Happy Eclipsing Shadow and CoCoMo's Chocolate Chip.  Her registered name is Happy Shadow's Mochaccino. 

In March 2005, Mocha delivered a litter of 11 puppies.  She had 5 chocolate females, 5 chocolate males, and 1 yellow male.  Kona is one of her puppies. 

In the summer of 2005, Mocha started competing in Big Air competitions with DockDogs.  At first, she was afraid of the pool and/or the crowd.  Finally, after being patient and working with her, she has started jumping in competition like she does in practice.  She seemed to have peaked in 2007.  She is now slowing down, but still loves competing!

She now has a DockDogs pool personal best of 20'5", a DockDogs club lake personal best of 23', an Ultimate Air Dogs pool personal best of 21'10", Ultimate Air Dogs short pool/dock personal best of 17'1", and a Wonder Dogs pond personal best of 20'8".  She used to compete in Extreme Vertical.  She has a DockDogs personal best catch of 5"2" and an UltimateAirDogs personal best of 5'6".  She recently added Speed Retrieve and has a personal best of 7.19 seconds.

Mocha currently has a Senior Title nationally and a Master Title regionally with DockDogs.  She has one master jump nationally.  Mocha is also Master Titled with Ultimate AirDogs.  In addition to Big Air, Mocha started off the 2007 Season by competing in a new game titled "Catch It!"  She is the first dog to have won a game of Catch It! and held the world record for 8 weeks.

In addition to Big Air, Mocha is training to compete in Flyball and Agility.  I never thought Mocha would enjoy agility, but she seems to be a natural.  Team CoffeeDogs attended a canine birthday party where the dogs were able to try flyball and agility.  Mocha became addicted that night. 

Mocha is just an all-around great dog.  She is a companion and can always tell when I am not feeling well.  I did not pick her, she chose me.  She was the largest female, and I wanted a small dog.  When she was a few days old, she started sucking on my fingers.  She would not do that to anyone else.  The bond was formed, and has not been broken.

Mocha also had to opportunity to begin hunting.  She got her first pheasant in fall 2009.  She is pictured below with her prize.
