“Quinn” placed fourth at 11 months old at Maryland Retriever Club’s derby stake this past weekend. I can’t thank Reid Jones and Core Sound Retrievers enough for there hard work with her. She is a special animal and I can’t wait to see what they accomplish together in the year to come.

Jam- Holyoke’s Midnight In Morattico “Echo”

This dog has the heart and work ethic like no other. Running just a couple trials in her derby career after rehabbing an injury in the middle of her training, we could not be more proud to be her owners and seeing how far she has come in a short period. We look forward to her continued success.

Thank you to the judges and club members of the Long Island Retriever Field Trial Club for putting on a great trial. Thank you to Reid Jones and Core Sound Retrievers for all your hard work.
