đ Black Labrador Bitch â âLillyâ â Exceptional Working & Family Dog
Lilly is a fast, driven, confident black Labrador with no fear of cover, water, noise, or terrain. She has excelled in every setting â ducks, rivers, stone walls, rough ground, and driven shoot days. Fully socialised, steady, and naturally confident, she is as enthusiastic as she is reliable.
Her accomplishments include:

Multiple working test awards
Outstanding, impeccable natural marking ability
Reads ground and understands the game instantly
Years of picking-up experience
Speed, drive, intelligence, and total commitment to the job

Lilly would be a perfect match for the UK working test season next spring/summer. Her marking, steadiness, and natural game sense will put any newcomer or experienced handler straight into the awards.
