Snap FR Brevet, on to IPO2
Pleased to say, Snap (Xcessive Force Du Loups Du Soleil) earned his FR Brevet Sunday with a nice score of 95.6. The video is at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeuKnt0m_KQ
We are preparing as well for an attempt at IPO 2 in 2 weeks. Right before the Brevet we had tracked, and after went back to the IPO field for blinds and rear transports. I’m sure Snap thought he had won the lottery!
