3 One of the BEST Nationals Ever! The 10th Labrador Retriever National Sydney NSW 2018 was nothing short of fantastic from start to finish. It began with the hot buffet breakfast supplied by the ladies from the Golden Retriever Club of NSW, followed by our championship show judge Mr Arwyn Ellis arriving in style in the beautiful Daimler flying the Welsh flag and the heartfelt opening speech from our esteemed life member Mrs Pat Dunstan. I would like to acknowledge the Labrador fraternity who travelled from all over the country, New Zealand, Pakistan, Indonesia and South Africa to compete and watch. Your commitment to your breed and good sportsmanship was there for all to see and is to be congratulated. I would also like to acknowledge the work done behind the scenes not just by the current committee but previous committees, all of which made the 10th Labrador Retriever National Sydney NSW 2018 such an outstanding success. Also, a huge thank you to the people outside of the club for all their efforts. Judges, stewards, representatives, Ring Announcer, Master of Ceremonies, general helpers and groundsman Steve Hadfield and his team, Alan Hunt and Carolyn Burch, our many Sponsors and the Golden Retriever Club NSW. You were all fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. We could not have done this without you. Sue McFadden

Try sticking to type and not use latest winners. And finally, what do you think the Labrador Retriever Club of NSW can do to improve? The harbour was stunning! Dolwen Coleman Lovely to meet you all.

I found the quality to be excellent and my winners could compete in any country. The committee are to be congratulated on all aspects of making the weekend so special. I must mention your secretary Sue McFadden on her exceptional organization. My stewards were second to none and made both days run so smoothly. The exhibitors are to be congratulated for their great sportsmanship. It was so lovely to see so many exhibitors staying for the meal and presentation, something to be very proud of. It certainly was an experience I shall always treasure and well worth the long journey. I wish you all well for the future. Arwyn Ellis

19 Obedience Trial I was very honoured to be invited to judge the 10th Labrador National Obedience Trial. The entry was excellent as was the quality of work. I was impressed the dogs were able to compete in the Retrieving Trial and then came over and excel in Obedience. All exhibitors handled their dogs very well and the dogs had good steady temperaments. The club is to be congratulated on a well run trial, my Stewards were excellent. I was very impressed with my winner of winners who was a joy to watch. Congrats to all qualifiers and to all exhibitors for their good sportsmanship.

20 Retrieving AbilityTest for Gundogs (RATG) We had a great entry of 18 Labrador Retrievers for the RATG held at the 10th Labrador Retriever National in Sydney. RATG are often open to all registered gundogs, but as this was a National it was main or limited registered Labradors only. We had handlers and dogs from NSW and interstate. There was 11 entries in Open with 7 finishers. 7 entries in Novice with 1 finisher. Our judge was Pam Lyons (NSW). Pam has judged a huge number of RATG over many years, but this was to be her last judging appointment before retirement, so it was fitting that it was at a National event. The National was held at the Dogs NSW grounds at Orchard Hills NSW. The RATG area that was used had some undulating terrain with light cover. The obedience exercises were held just inside the fence that the gallery had to stay behind, but they also had a good view of the retrieving exercises. Pam put on a double rise for the double retrieve in Open. Some of the Novice dogs had trouble with the retrieves which is the reason there was one finisher in Novice. The Open standard was very high with dogs scoring closely. The winner of Open was Mr D & Mrs V Furnell s Huntogun Tazzie Devil RN NRA. This dog was also the Winner of Winners, gaining the Beale Stitt Trophy. Thanks also to our stewards who helped make the day a success: Brad Leggett, Carol Griffiths, & Jeff Griffiths.
