Grace LaRocque
Grace has been training dogs professionally since 2000. She has trained and competed with her dogs in agility, tracking, rally and obedience.
Grace's first agility dog Moose AAD OA EJC EGC EAC competed at the Masters, Excellent and Elite levels in USDAA, AKC and NADAC respectively. In just 3 short years, Moose accumulated 17 agility titles and was well on his way toward his NATCH in NADAC. Moose was a rescued Labrador Retriever from NEARR.
Her 6.5 year old Golden Retriever MACH Beau Geste Fabill of Romulus EAC EJC OGC CGC AS AD PDIII TD CD VCD1 OF RA ("Romi") is retired from agility. However, he may continue to compete in obedience and rally. Romi was about halfway towards his MACH2 in AKC agility, and needed only a few legs for his Performance ADCH in USDAA.
Grace's young dog, Pine Run's Mountain Escape MX AXJ OF MAD RN (Golden Retriever) "Zer", is competing in Excellent and Masters Agility, Advanced Rally, and on his way towards Obedience Competition.
