We said goodbye to one of the greats this past weekend, our sweet Ryder. She gave us 14 amazing years of countless retrieves, numerous ribbons, 3 beautiful litters and endless couch snuggles. She was one of the hardest working dogs we’ve had, whether at a hunt test or in the duck blind, she knew when it was time to work and loved her job. We traveled all over Texas, working our way from AKC Junior to Master & UKC Started to Finish, all while loving every minute of it. Ryder will be missed tremendously but she is now running free with all the ducks and bumpers she can retrieve🐾
