Reserve National Brace Champions.
Kemi Lara and Pip become Reserve English National Brace Champions and qualify to run at the International in Ireland. They came to either just a year ago and progress has been thwarted by Lara who continues to feel the after effects of her dislocated wrist. Just as she did last year Lara managed to pull one out of the bag and rise to the challenge. Working on 10 Swales that were testing and strong minded to say the least the dogs worked incredibly hard to take them round the course and successfully achieve both pens. Prior to this they first competed a year ago with Pip gripping at Macclesfield in 2022. Since then they had three brace runs in a week this August and grew in confidence. Winning one, coming second and the third one, at Vivod , being a demonstration. I have to admit running brace is incredible fun and a good test of one’s sanity.
