Karen Holik

Karen began participating in dog agility in 1992 when she started training her Chow/Sheltie mix. She loves training dogs of all motivation levels and her successes with many breeds demonstrate her effectiveness. She believes that all dogs can be taught to run to their full potential and agility should be a team sport and fun for the dog at all times. She believes the most important aspects of agility training are teaching the fundamentals and being consistent with your handling at all times.

Karen currently owns 4 dogs, including three Shelties and a Border Collie. Her first dog (a Chow/Sheltie mix) became her first to receive the ADCH title in USDAA. She has also achieved this title with both shelties and her border collie. Karen's consistency and ability to adapt her handling to various breeds and motivational levels can be seen by qualifying for the USDAA World Championships, and further proven by competing in the Finals over a dozen times with all four of her dogs.

Her most recent accomplishments have been with ADCh MACh3 Triune's Feelin Hot Hot Hot "Sizzle." Together, Karen and Sizzle have been members of the AKC/USA World Team five times (France-2003, Spain-2005, Switzerland-2006, Norway-2007, and Finland-2008). Sizzle is also a four--time USDAA World Champion, taking that honor twice in the Steeplechase event, once in the Grand Prix of Dog Agility and also the Dog Agility Masters Team Tournament. Her youngest sheltie, Plail's Chill Factor "Ice," has just started his competitive career and is sure to soon have his own list of accomplishments. Karen teaches private/group lessons and also travels the United States, as well as Puerto Rico, Bermuda, Mexico and Costa Rica, giving seminars.
