In the agility world, Leslie has trained two dogs to their ADCH, one to ADCH Bronze, ATCH2, and MACH. Five of her dogs have qualified for the USDAA Nationals, with multiple Grand Prix Semi-final runs. She currently competes with 3 dogs in agility, Ghost, Watson, and Finnick. Stig competed at the USA EO Tryouts and AKC NAC in 2018. Stig and Ghost both competed at the UKI US Open 2018 in Jacksonville, FL, where Stig placed 3rd in Speedstakes. Ghost competed at the USA EO Tryouts in 2019 and 2021 and the USA World Team Tryouts in 2022. She placed 3rd in the Games Challenge at the 2022 UKI West Coast Open. Finnick made multiple finals at his first UKI West Coast Open and US Open. He competed at the USA EO Tryouts in 2022, placing 5th in Round 3. He also competed at the USA World Team Tryouts in 2023. He is the first dog Leslie has competed with overseas at the Border Collie Classic in Poland.
Leslie's interest in sports did not just begin with dog agility. At the age of 5 she began swimming competitively for her local summer league team. She competed in many national events placing 3rd in the 1994 U.S. Swimming National Junior Championship in the 200 Breast Stroke. Leslie went on to compete for the University of New Mexico Swim Team from 1996-2000. In 1998 she broke the school record in the 400 Individual Medley and held that record until 2002. During her time as a swimmer, she learned about exercise physiology, sports medicine, and physical therapy.
