"Fetch-it-Up"

Along with several other young puppies, Alexander got a chance to swim for the first time and practice some retrievals of a bumber and a real pigeon. It didn't take but about two tries and he was happily pouncing into the water to fetch the bumper and swim it back to the shore. The activities put on by a local Labrador Retriever Club, were all for practice for the Working Certificate, just one of many titles a dog can obtain through the AKC. All of the puppies had a great time and were practically giggling with joy at their first chance to carry a bird in their mouths. We look forward to another chance to get out in the country and do what Labradors do best which is to retrieve water foul and swim.
