Beau was a wonderful natural retriever, it seemed that the tougher the test, the better the dog tended to perform. At the time Beau was the first dog to accumulate 200 championships points and the first to score in excess of 300 championship points. At the end of his trialling career Beau amassed 312 Championship Points. Beau was a house dog and lived inside with the family and never spent a day in a kennel. He was such a wonderful faithful family dog, we are so very proud of Beau’s successes as a gundog. - Kevin James 2008.
