It is with a heavy heart that I inform the Retrieving world that sadly Dom passed away last night .
He was diagnosed with cancer late last year and unfortunately lost the battle too quickly.
Always the quiet achiever in all aspects of his life, Dom was a much loved man by both family & friends.
Dom loved fishing and hunting over his dogs with his brothers Elio & Gino. Upon his diagnosis his one desire was to have one last hunt with the guys and myself. He was annoyed that he had, in his opinion, the best dog he had ever trained and would not be able to take "Vyper" to the top in both the field & retrieving. Dom's understanding of dogs, his training prowess and his innate ability to correct problems will forever be remembered in the fraternity.
He was always looking to improve gear and his legacy to Wide Bay Club is that we have some of the best equipment to be found.
RIP my friend. You will be so missed.
