Okay. How old is the dog? What else can he do? Do you have a question about training?

I think it was a statement!

I think he was just getting the dog tired.

Was sort of disappointed to see it was an orange bumper. Wonder if the dog actually marked it and retrieved, or if this is their training area and the dog knew where to look for it. He was doing a lot of back and forth with his head.

Either way.....labs can mark.

No, Robt., Gundogguy's right, it was a statement. Apropos the other thread you're, er, "submerged" in elsewhere, I believe Oscar was noting the superiority of Argentine Labs over North American or Anglo-Saxon Labs... :mrgreen:

Exactly MG! The only thing I did not add to my remark "I think it was a statement!, was this "BFD". The last time I attended a Retriever trial Open all-age in Fenwick Mi
The land series triple 250 yrd go bird 350 yrd shot flyer hen pheasant and 600yrd monster mark straight down the course. I know Evan G had a YouTube vid 500yrd land and water with other factors off to the left side of the course. Now that retriever in that video of Evan's was a real statement! :D
