Cardueae Labradors

atural instinct to help me in my work. During the summer I like to compete in local gundog working tests and spend a lot of time training the dogs with friends. I have recently started to compete in field trials and was lucky enough to gain two awards with Yvie this past season. In winter I spend 3-4 days a week out picking up on a large shoot, allowing the dogs to use their natural ability and determination to find fallen and injured birds. I have been lucky enough to work on some very prestigous shoots around Yorkshire and the dogs make a very good impression on anyone they meet. They behave well, do the job well and continue to suprise me bringing birds from places I did not know existed. We aim to breed dogs that will make fantastic pets but they also love the challenge of a job, whether that be as a gundog, doing agility or obedience or as an assistance dog. All the girls are Hip/Elbow tested, hold current eye certificates and are PRA, CNM, EIC, SD2 and STGD tested aswell, I only use health tested sires to abide by the KC Assured Breeder Scheme. My primary interest is breeding working chocolate labradors using bi***es that are chocolate or carry chocolate and dogs with strong trialling bloodlines. I aim to improve the pedigree of chocolate and chocolate carrying labradors to enable them to compete on a level with their black and yellow counterparts. I stand one fully health tested stud dog which is black carrying chocolate.
