I am absolutely overjoyed to share something very special about one of the Papillons I raised, Frank, owned and handled by Suzanne, who just completed his very first agility trial.
Frank competed in ACT 1, ACT 2, and Jumpers, running eight courses over the weekend—and he qualified in all eight. While that is certainly something to celebrate, what makes me truly happiest is not the titles or the results, but the teamwork and bond I’ve had the joy of watching develop between Frank and Suzanne.
Seeing them work together as a team with trust, joy, and growing confidence in each other is exactly why I love raising dogs that are capable of doing so much, and why it means so much to have wonderful people like Suzanne become part of our Lovely Acres family. That connection and teamwork are what it’s really all about.
Frank comes from some very special lines—his mom is Lovelyacres Chandra Dressed to Kill and his dad is Fashion Rid High Hopes—and I’m so proud to see him carrying forward their spirit and potential in such a beautiful way.
I couldn’t be more proud of them both, and I can’t wait to see where their journey takes them next.
Congratulations, Frank and Suzanne—this is just the beginning, and it’s already something truly beautiful 🐾💛
