v-max 2 Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Hello a hard one?Best thing i think would be to try & find a bitch that the dog that that won the IGL championship has sired as it's a FTCH & a proven good dog in the field.Get a pup & give it to someone or advertize in a mag for what you want.

lampinglurcher 36 Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 ive got a young retriever that im bringing on at the moment. you're going to have to be prepared to wait if you want a good worker ~ i searched high and low for 8 months before sourcing my little bitch. if i were you id look for field dogs as opposed to trials winners.
