Cabbie has an outstanding pedigree. More importantly he has the breed features
of a good "HEAD, COAT and TAIL". He is structurally well proportioned and boned.
We are greatful for the many judges who have already acknowledge this young dog.
His sire and dam lines are littered with top winning and top producing labradors
from the USA and Australia. We have no doubt he will have a successful show career
and he will be a great addition to our breeding plans for the future.
Cabbie is from our first litter using imported semen. We are thrilled with the results
and the progeny produced from this match. A huge thanks to Margie and Ed Miller from
Torngat Labradors for allowing us to use semen from their lovely boy, Cabot. Also thank you
to Guy Spagnolo (Driftway Labradors) for allowing us to have Cabbie's beautiful mother (Raven).
With out both of you none of this would have been possible.

Labrador Retriever Club of NSW Championship Show
Sunday May 8, 2011
Judge: Mrs L. Kent (UK)
Critique: "Black of just four months, excellent bone and short coupled. Had a good topline for his age, quite short in leg and heavy in head at this stage.
Plenty of time to develop and mature."
