    Team trad back in the dog games

    Aye Mates,
    As so many of ye know, t'is been a tough road for TEAM TRAD over the winter months. I won't recount our troubles as I prefer to put it behind us as much as is possible.

    We have been back to training diligently and it seems to be working for us. On April 11th, 2015, TEAM TRAD took 1st Place honors in the YANKEE WATERFOWLERS HUNTING RETRIEVER CLUB SINGLES CHAMPIONSHIPS JUNIOR STAKES (for retrievers up to 2 years of age).

    We managed to edge out a talented amateur trainer and his beautifully trained female Chesapeake Bay Retriever who took 2nd place, and a very fine professional trainer / breeder of some of the best lining Golden Retrievers I have ever seen in action.

    TRAD was not entirely on his game and made two errors that would not have been cause for elimination, but would have been points deducted by the judges in a higher level of competition. With a double HRC Hunt Test coming up for us in just two weeks, it is clear that we have some fine tuning and hard training to accomplish betwixt now and then. Overall, TRAD performed very well and we received some wonderful compliments from the judging staff and from our fellow competitors.


    TTF CRAIGHORN KIFFIN TRAD JH - 1ST PLACE WINNER YANKEE WATERFOWLERS HUNTING RETRIEVER CLUB SINGLES CHAMPIONSHIPS APRIL 11th, 2015.

    Enjoy ye dogs and good training to ye!
