Charlie



Ch Blackrange Sorcerers Apprentice 

****2015 proved to be another Super year for Charlie with multiple Best of Breed and group wins
He ended the year by taking out the Janvalli Trophy for the Victorian Labrador of the Year despite only attending 5 out of the 12 qualifying shows due to a lazy mother! He has produced some amazing youngsters who have been winning in the ring and in loving homes with amazing gentle natures as well.


 

 

****Best In Show at the 2014 Labrador Retriever Nationals**** This dog is on fire!!
What an AWESOME achievement for this young boy! I am honoured to have done so well over so many wonderful dogs. Many thanks to his breeders Geoff and Trudy for sharing him with me - he's making us all so proud! Just love my Charlie boy!

*Two days later, at the Labrador Club of QLD's 50th Anniversary Show, Charlie wins Dog Challenge*

Charlie is a young boy who has had a fabulous show career to date and is leaving some very promising pups on the ground. He is an absolute clown to live with and makes me laugh out loud! 

From his first 10 shows, he won 8 age in groups (2 with age in show). His first outings as a minor puppy he picked up 2 out of 3 challenges over much older competition. Before the age of 18 months, he had won 3 Runner Up Best In Groups and numerous Puppy and Junior In Shows, qualifying for Dog of The Year. He just keeps getting better with age - can't wait to see what the future holds!

 

Critiques: 

Puppy In Show at the Australia Day International (All Breeds): "A lovely young black male. Correct outline, with balance through. Outstanding neck and shoulders with legs set well under him and plenty of forechest. Very pleasing head with good eyes and gentle expression; nice planes and strong muzzle. Coat of correct texture with a nice otter tail. Short coupled with a strong topline. Very nice now and has plenty of bone and substance to grow on. Should have an outstanding future." - Dr Michael Woods (Waterdog Labradors, Canada)

RDCC and Best Opp Puppy In Show (to his half sister Tasha) at the NSW Labrador Specialty, May 2013: "Excellent coat of the most correct type, true and clean outline, beautiful reach of neck, very well balanced. Today he was high in the rear which will no doubt improve with age. Happy to give him the RCC." - Jo Fleming (Blackwater Labradors, ex-USA)
