On Nov. 22, 23 Ace (Alasera’s Grand Slam) debuted in his first ever agility trial at the Twin City Obedience Training Club in Minneapolis. He not only qualified in both of his first two runs, but he also placed first in each run!! On Sunday, he had two more great, fast runs, with only one mistake in each. He has just a great future ahead of him. Needless to say, I am tremendously proud.

Mellie, not to be outdone, had a super week-end as well. She ran in all three days of the trial, qualifying in 5 of 6 runs, earning two double Q’s and 82 MACH points. She placed in every run, two first place finishes, a second place finish, a third place and a tie for third place. She ran fast, happy and is really getting into a groove. Lots of trials coming up this winter!
