Field Trials US

Last weekend, the Retriever Hall of Fame inductions were held at the Bird Dog Museum in Grand Junction, Tennessee. (If you haven't been there, it's worth a visit.)

This year's inductees were:

FC-AFC Bayou-Star Beyond Independent
FC-AFC Lock Five's Got Her Blue Genes On

Laura Parrott
Jack Vollstedt

One of the things we do at Retriever Results is track the type of handler (amateur or pro). And if the handler is a pro, we try to add in the kennel name. Most of the time we get the designation right and most of the time we figure out the kennel name. 

Here are a few that we're missing. If anyone knows the kennel name, please send it to us.(And if the handler is not a pro, we'd appreciate knowing that too.)
