Soleil is an incredible agility dog. She was the top Beauceron in the USA in
2005 & 2006. She came in 6th in the 26" class at the 2006 AKC National Agility
Championships and has qualified for the AKC World Team Tryouts in 2006 and
2007. I look forward to a long and successful agility career with Soleil as my
agility partner.
Soleil and I went back to France in May, 2002 for the Nationale d'Elevage, the
National Beauceron Specialty in France. She received a rating of Recommandée or
Cotation 4 at just 12 months of age. To earn this she had to get an
Excellent rating on the temperament test, an Excellent Plus rating in
conformation, and be certified free of hip dysplasia. Soleil received a
French hip rating of Dys A/A which means she is free of hip dysplasia.
I have a special photo album of our trip here:
