Working results
Duke has been progressing with his gundog training, and we are hoping to compete in some gundog working tests next year.
We were fortunate to be selected as reserve for the Curly Coated Retriever team at the The Minor Breeds Working Test in June 2023. Duke ran the tests and while he struggled on some he did get a fantastic score of 19 out of 20 on his first retrieve.
In the upcoming season Duke will be used for wildfowling, hopefully putting his training into real world practice.
