As a half brother to Flint (FTCH Troddenmills Beck And Call Of Leacaz); I have enjoyed seeing Todd develop and is a pleasure to work. Todd started his competing during the 2017 trial season which saw some brilliant retrieves in his first novice trials. He was awarded 2nd place (no first awarded) in Sept. 2017 trial for Barton and Humber Gundog Club and also won 3rd place at the Labrador Club Of Scotland Novice trial. Todd won out of novice trials in November 2017 following a good run at the I.G.L. Novice trial at Packington Estate. I was very happy with Todd's performance in 2018 at the Chatsworth Retriever Team Event 1st/2nd September as part of the Northumberland and Durham LRC team. Todd was top scorer in the team and helped secure N&D's automatic qualification for the competition in 2019. Todd began his 2018 season in Open Trial's. I was very pleased with his performance in all events during which he was placed 3rd and Best Dog on A Runner at Northumberland and Durham Two Day trial in a very strong field. The following week he produced a stunning performance at the I.G.L. Two Day Stake at Glenalmond, Scotland where he was very worthy of his 2nd place.
Todd also gave an exceptional performance at Tyne Tees and Tweed Two Day Qualifier in October and his 3rd place award was very well earned. He has enjoyed entering some working tests in 2019 and did well, as can be seen on his awards page. Todd represented Northumberland and Durham L.R.C. in the local Inter-Club Team Test in July. N & D Won and Todd was Top Scoring Dog Of the Day. Todd performed exceptionally well at Yorkshire Gundog Societies Two Day stake 7th and 8th October, and I was very proud to WIN with him as this qualifies Todd for his first I.G.L. Championship in December 2019 Todd then followed this with a back to back win at the NGO Two Day trial at Emblehope & Burngrange Estate - making Todd A FIELD TRIAL CHAMPION. He then performed exceptionally at the 2019 Retriever Championships at Glenalmond, Perthshire over 3 days and against 62 other dogs. Finishing the trial with a few other worthy award winners, Todd received a Diploma Of Merit. A fine end to the season. Unfortunately Todd and owner Ms T. Blumenthal have had to restrict their time in the UK during 2020 due to the restrictions of the Covid-19 pandemic. This has resulted in a missed 2020 UK trialling season but hopefully Todd will be back in the UK during 2021 when I will hopefully handle him and carry on where we left off at the end of 2019. |
