Sport finished her Junior Hunter title in 3 weekends of tests. It was a first for both of us and lots of fun. We miss the camaraderie at the tests and are currently training to go on to Senior (when we’re not competing in agility trials!).

Sporty qualified for the GRCA Triathlon Award at the 2007 GRCA National when she earned her WC (Working Certificate) in field, earned a leg toward her NAJ with a 2nd place, and won the Novice Bitch class. It was our goal for the National and a thrill to achieve.
Sport has obtained all her health clearances (hips (OFA Good), elbows, eye, and heart).
