For a lab, Cuda has it all and fortunately comes in a chocolate package. Larry and Anna Calvert are amateur trainers and have trained and run Rascal extensively in field trials in the US and Canada. Rascal's strengths are marking, intelligence, and the tendency to run straight lines on retrieve. He is hard-going and very intense, but has a disposition that makes him bidable at home and in the blind. He is about average size for a field trial lab at 75 lbs.
Rascal is hunted each fall, has a good nose, and does a great job quartering on upland hunts.
He is a fantastic pheasant dog, and is a natural pointer. Rascal has also proven to be a great producer of high quality pups. His pups are very birdy, outgoing, and athletic in the field, but have an easy-going disposition at home. Nick is a good looking lab with a medium bodied and medium height, on an 80 pound frame. He is very intelligent, athletic and trainable.
