...and keep me young, says La. These are two photos from two trials last weekend. What makes them special is that La will turn 13 in September. This season, she ran clean runs only and is currently 1st in National Championships and 2nd in WC and EO qualifications (after Le). She is certainty the best commercial for my methods - and the only one I really care about.

Thank you La for not only being a pioneer dog of running contacts, cik&cap and many, many tricks that are nowadays a normal part of life of so many puppies all around the world - but also for being a perfect example of why spending that extra training time. May running contacts make you smile for many more years to come!

    She is the best commercial, but not the only one! 😀 SO many students are so easy to spot now! 😀
