Angel
“Angel”
Angel is the
daughter of AFC Emberain Rugby OS FDHF and Lakwoia’s
Mango Tango Fandango JH WC.
Angel has been an
outstanding addition in our home. She’s an intelligent willing worker with
burning desire to please. She has great marking skills, high desire for birds,
good speed on land and power in the water.
She has been used predominantly as a pheasant dog where her strong nose
and tracking skills are put to test. She
hunts in close to the hunters affording easy shooting.
At home she is a
full time house pet with impeccable manners and the sound trustworthy
temperament the Golden Retriever is known for. She is 22” at the withers, 58
pounds with a firm dense wavy coat suitable for field work. This girl loves cold water, ice and snow.
After serving as a
test dog on judging assignments, Angel will begin her Hunt Test career this
summer.

Therapy Marks
When a young dog is
experiencing a lot of training pressure in the yard you need to give them
something they can easily be successful with to build confidence and restore
their attitude to training. Therapy marks
do just that. They’re short easy marks, run without pressure,
that the dog can easily complete.
Introducing
crippled birds.
Every bird shot for
a dog won’t always be dead when they get to it. Sometimes they’re very lively
and put some moves on to hide in cover. This is Angels’ first experience with a
bird that can run around and fight back.
Running a double.
Training is
progressing and Angel is doing multiple marks in the field. Note how she locates the gun stations and is
scanning the area on the return, aware that there may be other birds appearing
in this set up. (There are several
distracting influences outside the picture frame. Other dogs,
people and a pile of birds.)
