"Brook," SR Bertschire's Avalanche WC CGC, owned by John and Sandy Bulger, handled by John, earned the title NAHRA Started Retriever.

CH SR Lyric's Kay CD JH WCX CGC TDI, "Katie",  and Al Jenkins helped maintain a perfect pass rate for flat-coated retrievers in this test.  Katie was one of three flat-coats running that day, and all passed.  This is Katie's second leg toward her WR title with NAHRA.  A deceptive water double separated the qualifiers from the rest of the pack, but flat-coats, having their own way of doing the marks, had little trouble.
