Natalie is now at Welcome Home Labradors,
with Gina & Bryce Shervheim
and their wonderful family in Minnesota.
I
am SO pleased with this lovely puppy! She is particularly special to
me as she is a combination of my two old bitch lines; her daddy Gizmo going back
to Emma's line, her mama Valerie going back to the old Molly line. Thus her
name "Special Blend".
Natalie
is a very well balanced puppy, correct angulation front and rear, strong
topline, good bone and coat with nice golden tones, beautiful head and
expression, excellent pigment and she moves like a dream! She is
sweet, patient, yet very spunky, retrieves at 9 weeks ... an outstanding
total package! She made the final cut in the big 6-9 months class at
Winnebago specialty the very day she turned 6 months! Then, without any further experience, she took 2nd in BBE at the TCLRC specialty and
the following day supported entry at 2 years of age. She has
several Reserves including a major RWB from the BBE class and Best BBE
in Breed.
