Atlanta wrap up:

Ansem represented the Bouvier des Ardennes beautifully in Atlanta this weekend by earning his Rally Novice title.

Riku returned to the Rally ring after a two year hiatus to snatch his Rally Excellent title!

Yesterday, Riku took second place after scoring 98/100 and today, 4th place with 96/100.

Friday, our Riku took BOB for a 4 pt major towards his Bronze. Rival's cousin Hoti (of Sweetwater) earned his first points with a 3 pt major as Winners Dog.

Saturday, cousin Hoti took BOB for a 5pt major! Our Rival took Select for his Grand points.

Sunday, all three of our boys stole the show - unplanned, as we really were just there to support our friends for numbers  Rival took BOB, Saison Winners Dog, and Riku Select.

Saison is now CH Coswald's Harvest of Action. Rival has two majors and a champion defeat towards his Grand. Riku got his Rally Excellent and points toward his Bronze. Ansem got his Rally Novice.

Our newest puppies Vision and Vecna got to meet lots of people at the show, getting some great environmentals.

So proud of Katie, Kamie, and Adriana for raising and training rock solid Laekens. Big thanks to all our friends who helped us handle dogs this weekend.
