DVG LV 2017 National Champions (Shellshots photo)
Congratulations to Adrianne Isabel and Phelan du Loups du Soleil for winning the 2017 DVG National Championship in Merced! As well as High Belgian Malinois and High Tracking! Well deserved — we’re celebrating with you!
Zappa du Loups du Soleil IPO3 CDX put on an excellent performance in Ohio earning his Mondioring Brevet with a 97/100 under judge Ann Putegnat with Todd Dunlap as decoy. We only had a couple of days to teach him a Defence of Handler, but he nailed it! Of course, he did an out and guard on the attack, and an out and “hier-fuss!” on the guard after the defence – his Schutzhund was showing, lol.

An epic end to a great trial at Big Sky Working Dog Club in Montana. Anne Camper and Aazhi du Loups du Soleil IPO2 earned a 100 point FH track under AWMA Judge Glen Stephenson!!!
Zappa earned his IPO2 in Arizona with a High In Trial under UScA Bill Szentmiklosi. Thanks to JJ and Nicole Belcher for their hospitality and the opportunity to practice before the trial. Love my friends in the LdS world!

Iso du Loups du Soleil was such a good boy earning his IPO 1 (Schutzhund 1 for old schoolers ;-)) and High in Trial and High IPO 1 with scores of 84-81-90 at the Endeavor Working Dog Club. I’m so proud of him and it truly takes a village to train and raise a Schutzhund dog!!!
