Grace and Zer with their 2nd place Ribbons
Zer (ADCH Pine Run’s Mountain Escape RA MX MXJ XF ADHF), an Echo x Flyte son, and his handler Grace LaRocque took second place in the finals at the 2011 AKC National Agility Championship in Lexington, Virginia. Out of 111 dogs running the 24 inch Division, they placed 7th after the first 3 rounds—which meant he earned a chance to run in the finals—and he took second place in the final round!! He came very close to winning the whole thing, missing first place by only 0.352 seconds!
It was such a thrill to watch Zer and Grace run in the finals. They have come so far as a team and I am very proud of them. Way to go!!!
