Elsa is the 2017 AKC National Lure Coursing Champion!

We are beyond Proud of our Girl Elsa!!! 
She had a unbelievable weekend - The 2017 AKC NLCC  (National Lure Coursing Championships) were held in Limestone, TN on Dec. 2-3
On Saturday Elsa went BOB, beating 40 whippets and earning a spot in the NLCC EVENT on Sunday.   Her Brother, Max, went BOB on Sunday!!!

Sunday, there was a runoff between the two BOB winners and the next highest qualifying score and she went on to go BOB in Event, moving up to the Best In Event.  

For BIE, she was paired with the Greyhound and the Cirneco Dell'Enta.  I will point out, this was the first time Elsa actually ran for a BIF or BIE run, So I had no idea if she was going to run with these other breeds.   Well, her run was breathtaking and brought tears to my eyes...... I was so proud at that moment that I knew she couldn't have done more.  I couldn't believe it when they called her name as the 2017 NLCC BIE winner!!!!

Just like her mother, Elsa is a 2 time #1 AKC Lure Coursing Sighthound and 
NOW a National Field Champion!!!  
Beyond Proud
