"Dash is for me everything I look for in a working Labrador, his temperament is even and steady not given to wild burst of frantic behaviour at any time.
When we are in the field if nothing is happening for him he lies down until called for. When asked to go, he goes on afterburner!, but he is very easy to handle and does not pull me about on the stop whistle when being handled.
His nose is second to none, this is an inherited factor from both sides of his breeding, his dam at 8-1/2 years is still capable of wipeing all my other dogs eyes on a retrieve and does it regularly. Rooney his sire, first time I saw him was finding partridge in roots on a very dry day when no other dog did(including mine).
I enjoy working with this dog so much and I feel he always gives 100%."

Szöcske is our best game-finding dog - she is incredible on wounded game, she can follow the track of a crippled pheasant among the scent of hundred living ones.
She is an ideal dog for rough shooting: she can quarter searching for the game like a spaniel under gun-range, when she flushes the game she sits down and retrieves only on command.
She is very calm during the drives and perfect at heel. Moreover she is a lovely family dog and throws easy to train pups with a lot of will to please (see Litter K - News)
My dark wonder, Kalli! Super hunter, calm and looks beautiful!
"Pippin is now 7 months old and keeps amazing me each and every day with his incredible will to please and natural abilities. He is very attentive, offering himself so easily and picking up new things so quickly that I have to be careful not to overestimate his capabilities – after all, he is still only 7 months old.
When I picked him up at the age of 8 weeks, he flew with me on the long-haul international flight from Vienna through Moscow to Bishkek without any problems, sleeping through most of the flight. When awake, he was not afraid of anything at all - neither the cars going past us in front of the airport nor the atmosphere inside the terminal nor all the strange people running around with lots of luggage; he simply kept on walking easily next to me or let himself from time to time be carried along the way – he took all of it in stride.
He has very quickly become best friends with my 4 year old Golden girl and they enjoy a good romp together in the garden. In the house, Pippin is very quiet and relaxed. He has an inner strength and calmness that I find absolutely fascinating in a puppy this young. But then again, when we are outside together and I ask him to, he will hunt in higher grass or go for a retrieve with such joy and energy that, to me, it is simply beautiful to look at. From early on, he would pick up anything – from a plastic bottle to a dead fowl dummy or a lady`s shoe – and bring it directly back to me.
Seeing how he is still young, I have not done any serious training with him yet. We are just starting on our way together and I am very curious how he will develop further. Based on the last couple of months, I think I have a lot to look foward to and I keep thinking how lucky I am to have him. To me, he is an absolute dream come true; more than I could have hoped for when I started looking for a puppy. Thank you very much, Rita, for this wonderful dog"
