Lupine's working ability is one of her strongest attributes. She is a determined retriever, who never gives up, but at the same time she listens to us and is a stable and calm worker. She has excellent marking skills and is a very strong and keen swimmer. She is everything we look for in a working dog. Lupine is an excellent hunting companion on duck, goose and pheasant hunts. She has two Junior Hunter legs.

Lupine also enjoys obedience and at two years old she finished her CD with a 2nd place, two High in Class's and a High in Trial!  She is a happy working dog and her confidence and good attitude shines through in the ring. In early March 2008 she earned two CDX legs, winning High in Class both times with scores of 196.5 and 197. In November she finished her CDX title with another High in Class. We are working on Utility....

Lupine has done some agility and would probably do very well in this activity if her owners had the time for it!
