We are very thankful to have bred our Kelsey to GMPR HRCH Black Ice’s Super Sonic Scooter MH QAA QA2. Scooter is the youngest dog on record (by 12 months) to achieve QAA, GMPR & MH titles.  He now has multiple field trial placements in the United States and Canada.  He is a fox red Lab that has produced many litters of excellent hunting and titled Labrador Retrievers. Indeed, he is a very well known Labrador Retriever stud!

With an easily trainable disposition, Kelsey also has a very strong nose and steady on point to shot.  She was born with these natural instincts which were easily fine tuned to follow commands when working in the field and water.  Kelsey’s pedigree is strong with titled ancestors and her hunting skills make the strength of her genes very evident.  This breeding with Scooter has produce some very fine field trial and hunting labs that are also calm companions.  

Noteworthy, our Kate’s Trial by Jury, Kelsey’s mom, was bred twice to fox red Lab GMHR Torg’s Hunting Memories MH, “Tanner”, an exceptional hunter and sire, in both 2015 and 2017.  These two litters produced very fine hunters that were quickly & easily trained.  The dog owners from these litters have shared many hunting experiences. We are thankful that we kept Kelsey and her brother, Louie from the 2015 litter within our kennel to hunt with.

Kelsey’s mom, Kate, comes from our International Champion, Decoy and our pointing, Labrador, Katherine.  This lineage carries extremely dark fox red, champion genes that really stand out among our Labradors.  Furthermore, Kelsey, Kate and Katherine have proven outstanding upland game and waterfowl abilities that any hunter could count on.  Even to this day, Kelsey and Kate make a fantastic duo, come rain or shine.   Their field range, water work, retrieving instincts and noses are superior.  Their desire to please is stellar. Hunting with them is a breeze!

These pups should have what it takes to please serious hunters.  They will be exposed to all kinds of puppy testing to determine their potential strengths as hunters.  On April 13th, at eight weeks old, they will be ready for homes. We look forward to seeing these exceptional genes alive and working in these pups to enable them to be superior hunters, companions and/or working dogs for you.
