Jade's Page
My name is Jade Jimenez, I'm 16 years old and have been showing since I was 6. I enjoy the dogs very much and have tried to ben an asset to Karosel Shelties as I have always enjoyed being the puppy socializer. I have been doing conformation since I was six, and juniors since I was twelve. I love both for different reasons, but I find it more relaxing and less stressful to show in conformation. Conformation is all on the dog, but juniors is all on the handler! My new dog is Gemma and she is being brought out for the first time since she was 6 months old, so watch for us in the ring. :) Check on this page for updates in my show career, and hopefully I'll have some new win photos from either Lydia or Gemma.

Latest additions to my page: New photos of Lydia and I are below, and one win photo is coming soon. My junior showmanship statistics are also posted for this year at the bottom of the page.

Jade and Ch.Karosel Seeking Fame
Jade decided to start competing in Jr. Showmanship after many years of competing against adults in the conformation ring.  She is off to a great start as she quickly won three novice intermediate classes in a row won many Best Junior prizes as an Open Intermediate competitor, and is now currently showing in Open Senior. Jade and Seeker made the perfect team and had a blast together! Now, Jade is showing BISS CH. SeaHaven Karosel Starscape "Lydia." We hope they do well but most importantly have a lot of fun !!!!
