Chief MH x Cricket
Cricket blessed us with a litter of 5!  The pairing with Cricket and Chief was intended to produce smaller, compact hunting Labradors that are about as friendly and social as one could want but athletic enough and driven enough to be excellent hunting partners.  Chief is about 68lbs and Cricket is 54lbs.  Both dogs are lovers; they want to be next to you all the time and have that fun, exhuberant energy about them.

Both dogs have their hips, elbows and eyes OFA certified and both dogs are clear on the essential Labrador panel from Pawprint genetics.  Chief is an AKC Master Hunter, and is only a couple of passes away from his HRCH (Hunting Retriever Champion) in the HRC hunt test venue.  Chief is also a staple in our preserve guiding team hunting pheasants at a couple of local pheasant clubs here in SE WI and NE IL.

Cricket belongs to Contender Retrievers in Buckingham, IA.  Jason and Kristi Heffelmier have operated for decades and have had several dogs go on to become hunt test and field trial titled dogs (including a National Amateur Field Chamption).  Jason also runs a private pheasant hunting farm and all of his dogs contribute to the guiding duties, Cricket included.

Cricket is very well bred.  Her sire is Copper (FC AFC CFC Money Talks II), who was a very successful yellow labrador in field trials (both America and Canada).  Her mother is a daughter of Guide (CNFC CNAFC FC AFC Nightwings Marsh Leader), another coveted field trial dog.  Chief brings a proven line of genetics as well.  His mother is one of several dogs in a very successful litter that achieved APLA, HRC and AKC titles and even a few field trial titled dogs as well.  The versatility is undeniable in Chief's pedigree and that is why he is here in our program.

This litter should produce dogs around 65/70lbs (males) and 50-55lbs (females) that are social, energetic and sporty but very intelligent and easy to train.  If you are not a hunting home, please make sure you are an active household where the puppy will get daily training, mental and physical stimulation and of course exercise.
