Gundog Trophy

[Steve Grainger]

Does anyone know of any trophy shops or suppliers with trophies that depicts a retrieving type of thing.
You know maybe a hunter with a retriever at their side or with the dog in front with a bird for the hand over or maybe a handler giving a dog a line for a retrieve. The reason I ask is our obedience club will be running a Gundog Working Test in conjunction with our annual obedience trial in July next year and as this will be a first in our area we would like to have something special for it. The Trophy shop in Maitland where we get our usual trophies from have nothing and checking through their catalogue there’s not much available for dogs at all.

Steve,
I suggest you give Don Sharp a call. Don donated a trophy to the
United Retrievers Club a few years ago for the highest point
scoring retrieving dog. The trophy shows a shooter with a rifle.
I don't think the trophy showed the dog as well. At the moment,
the trophy is in the hands of Chris Hicks.
Don may remember where he bought the trophy.
Regards,
Vivienne

Thanks Vivienne I just coped a "I told you so" from my wife Helen she said she had seen one at a United Retriever Trial but couldn't remember when.
I'll give Don a call see if he can help.
