Art, now Franklin, stayed with us. He has competed in the show ring, on the track, in nosework, and in his special talents: lure coursing and dock diving.
In 2023 Franklin gained his ASFA FCh in only 3 trials with two firsts, and his DP in NADD, jumping with Catherine Dresbach and Izzy May. His PB in distance is 31'3"; he was the #14 whippet in his first season! He is a remarkable lure courser. He is sitting at 10 points and both majors for his FC with AKC. He is a talented, handsome youngster and we love having him here.
