Bones is a stout, strongly built 75-pound female who combines excellent marking ability and a competitive field trial record with a loving, affectionate personality. She earned 7 Derby points, achieved QAA status at 2.7 years old, and secured her QA2 title at 3.5 years old with a JAM in a competitive 75-dog Open.
A true team player, Bones brings an eager-to-please attitude to training and competition. She is receptive to guidance and responds to corrections without requiring a heavy hand. Her willingness to work with her handler makes her a rewarding dog to train and compete with.
Away from the line, Bones loves being close to her people. Whether riding in the truck or stretched out on the couch beside her owners, she is happiest sharing everyday life with her family. She brings affection and companionship to the home alongside her talent in the field.
Her recent litter is showing strong natural marking ability, with the pups displaying many of the same qualities we appreciate in Bones. Seeing her characteristics emerge in the next generation adds to our excitement about this breeding.
Paired with FC AFC Seaside’s Gorgeous George “Clooney,” Bones brings marking talent, teamwork, temperament, and substantial physical strength. We expect this pairing to produce strong, powerful retrievers with the talent and cooperative attitude to develop into very competitive field trial athletes.
