January 2001, I received the good news that my puppy from
Can Ch Gaff's Sound Garden ex Am Can Ch Boothgate Chief
Producer had been born. After patiently waiting for two
months to go by, and scrutinizing every puppy in sight at
Charlotte and John's for many hours, I brought home the
puppy that caught my eye from the very beginning... my
dear little Reba. As she played the spring and summer out, Reba developed into a very fine young female, and was entered into her first show at the tender age of 7 months. Although Reba was beautiful, it was really only my intentions to enter her this young for the socialization and experience of a dog show. However, Reba had other thoughts in mind, and caught the eyes of the judges! At her first show, she received Best Puppy in Breed, Winners Bitch and Best of Opposite Sex. Second show wins were repeated, but she went one step further to Best Puppy in Group!!! Continuing to strut her stuff right into the hearts of the judges, and with very limited showing, Reba was a Canadian Champion by the age of 8 months!!! Reba is everything I could ask for. She very much conforms to the Standard of the Breed, has the true Labrador temperament, and possesses that great instinct to retrieve. She's loving, humorous, playful, but can be down right naughty... and knows how to give "the look" to melt the coldest of hearts, which makes it easy for us to forgive!!! :-) Thank you Charlotte for such a treasure! Update 2009: Arriba, affectionately known as Reba, has retired and living with a wonderful family in her ''forever home''. |
