Meet Otter 2.0 – Repeat Breeding With Same Great Results
The first pick male of our first breeding of Rouxfus x Sugar was named Otter. That dog has gone on to earn his Hunting Retriever Champion title. Fast forward to our third breeding and you get Otter 2.0 owned by Tommy Kelly of North Georgia. Same parents, same result. An extremely intelligent dog with incredible drive. Tommy says “I can’t even start to tell you how smart this dog is. It is amazing to be such a young pup and his ability to mark things. I carried him dove hunting 4 times this past fall and I have not lost a bird.” Otter just turned one and recently went on a duck and goose hunt. “Otter had a 200 yard retrieve on this speckle belly goose. He is a joy to hunt with whether it be dove, ducks or geese. Otter has far exceeded my expectations of what I was after in a retriever.”
Meet Captain – Duck Hunter’s Dream
This is Captain, owned by Chris Molinet of Fort Lauderdale Florida. Captain is the product of the third breeding of Rouxfus x Sugar. Chris called me way in advance of the breeding and said he wanted a chocolate labrador that he could train to become not only his best friend but a retrieving machine. Today at a little over a year old, Captain went on his first duck hunt. Chris was beyond happy with Captain’s performance. They had a great hunt, the first of many many to come for this team!
Meet Kane – Incredible Looks With Skills to Match
This is Kane. Kane is a result of breeding Rouxfus to a beautiful, chocolate factored, high drive, black, conformation female. Cathy Montgomery of Earthsea Labrador Retrievers uses the Killingsworth labrador line as her genetic foundation. This line is known for its wonderful temperament, conformation lines and genetic soundness. Cathy wanted to bring a good looking field lab back into her genetic lines to get the “best of both worlds”. She and I talked for a year before the breeding occurred. She is meticulous in what she wants in her breeding program. The result is nothing short of spectacular!
Kane is a strong built, dark chocolate male. He is currently working on his Hunting Retriever title. What a handsome boy with the skills to get it done in the field. Thank you Jerry Imprevento of Field Dog Imagery for this wonderful shot.
