Colin earned his Dock Diving Junior title November 15, 2015.  He has 8 Title legs for Junior and 1 leg toward his Senior Title.  Colin's personal best is 15' 3"

Colin is a joy and a multi talented Labrador Retriever. 

At 14 weeks he was used by Handi-Dogs as a demo dog for diabetic alert training.  He found all 5 scents in a room, with distractions in less than 15 minutes. 

He is a gentle soul, loves children, other dogs and a ferret he happened to meet while he was hanging out with us at the local sports bar.

Colin LOVES to retrieve on land or in water (he retrieves to hand), he is a powerful swimmer and a prodigious dock diver.

He heads off to work with me each day, and displays great "office manners" but when he heads home he loves to play.

Colin turned out to be exactly what I wanted and more. As beautiful as he is, what I value most is his wonderful temperament. Colin is always loving, easy, happy and willing to please. He loves to work and he is pretty much "bomb" proof.  I am so grateful to Karen Turner, Amethyst Labradors, for her trust in co-owning a pick puppy with a newbie like me.
