It was a spectacular finish to the week long Amateur Retriever Championship trial in Ronan, Montana, with Alanson Brown III and AFC World Famous Emasculator-SheMale, "Nora", a female labrador owned, handled and mostly trained by Lanse. Nora stepped on all 4 marks. Literally. They were the last team to run today - what a way to end the trial.
