The Labrador Retriever

'The Labrador Retriever is a strongly built, medium-sized, short-coupled, dog possessing a sound, athletic, well-balanced conformation that enables it to function as a retrieving gun dog; the substance and soundness to hunt game for long hours under difficult conditions; the character and quality to win in the show ring; and the temperament to be a family companion.' -AKC.org

The Labrador Retriever

Sport Utility Dog

A well trained Labrador is a versatile hunting partner, diving into the cold marsh to retrieve fallen waterfowl or using their keen nose to locate and flush upland game. A well bred Labrador is a social dog who is an excellent partner in the field and a loyal companion in the home.

Thank you to many others to jumped in to help where it was needed.  

Lastly, a big thank you to Pat and Ed Collom for organizing this event.  

Congratulations to the dogs and handlers who passed the test.  

For those who didn’t pass, don’t get discouraged.  Every dog who attended has the potential to pass with a bit more training.

New CCLRC Website

December 21, 2015 Leave a Comment Written by Brent

We are excited to announce the launch of our new CCLRC website.  The fresh design brings a new user experience with some modern technology conveniences.

There were several goals with the new design:

  • Modern look
  • User Friendly Interface
  • Distributed Web Maintenance/Authoring to allow more people to update content
  • Mobile friendly
  • Online store integration to allow payment for membership renewal, Club Spirit-wear, etc
  • Easy to use event calendar
  • Members only section for content restricted to club members
  • Integration with social media

With the new website, we are also launching a new public facing Facebook Page and a Twitter feed.   These will act as extensions of the website to promote the club to the public.

The original Facebook Group will continue to be used as it has been for discussion purposes.

The website has new content and we have ideas for additional content to be added soon.

Club members will need to register in order to see the restricted content.

We hope you enjoy the new website.  If you experience any issues, please send an email to our web administrator.
