Tiercel finished his OTRM yesterday at WWWA’s NOTRA meet in Roy, WA. Lark ran her 2nd complete oval meet (following nearly a year of retraining after she cut through the middle of the track in her first meet last spring) and needs one more meet to finish her OTR. Good girl!

Better late than never, here is last weekend’s report: at the LCLCA ASFA trial on Sunday in Beavercreek, OR, Tiercel won the FCH stake and earned his first placement towards his LCM. Lark finished 3rd in the 13-dog open stake and is now halfway to her FCH in very limited running.
