He was our first obedience and retrieving trial dog successfully obtaining his "Companion Dog Excellent" obedience title. He showed outstanding natural retrieving ability and quite quickly obtained 3 passes in Novice Gundog Working tests (a 1st and two 2nd places). Dawson successfully competed on the weekend of the 21st and 22nd of May 2005 in his first retrieving trial (run by the Gundog Society) and to his credit he got through all 6 runs over the two days and in fact managed to obtain 4th place on the Saturday. Not bad for his first trial! Dawson came along for the ride on the 2005 NSW Country Circuit and for a working dog held his own in the show ring obtaining a Challenge Dog award and two Runner Up Best of Breeds.
Dawson was the first labrador I showed and it was he that started my passion for this breed in a very big way. While Dawson has often been a challenging dog to own and manage I will miss my big mate but I have to say that I would not be where I am now in terms of breeding and showing had I not had the privilege of owning and loving this unique boy.
