Man in Black “Cash”
CH Dickendall Davaron Gable “Clark” x Topshot Magical Trickster “Abby”
Cash’s pedigree goes back to the famed Dual Champion Banchory Bolo (1915-1927). Bolo was the first dog to earn a dual championship by winning both the bench championship “CH” and the field trial championship in England. In short, Cash’s litter was planned with the goal of producing that kind of labrador retriever.Cash came from a unique breeding in the labrador retriever world. There are a lot of field champion (FC) x field champion breedings, as well as a lot of conformation champion (CH) x conformation champion breedings. Both of these types of breedings are done with the purpose of improving the breed. There is another kind of breeding known as a “backyard breeding” in which no thought is given to the improvement of the breed. The majority of people who purchase a lab do so from a “backyard breeding.”Cash was bred from a combination of the best in the American field trial/hunting lines and the best in the English Hunter and American show/conformation lines. A lot of research was done before the right combination of sire and dam were chosen. The purpose of the breeding was to combine the best of both worlds. Cash’s litter owner desired to produce a dog that had the looks, intelligence, calm personality, and physical strenth strength of a conformation champion, along with the quickness, agility, and hunting instinct of the field trial champions. While both parents were from the best pedigrees of each of their respective specialties, they were also required to versatile dogs in their own right. For example, Cash’s sire, Clark, has produced three dogs which were titled both as show champions and Master Hunters, which is very rare. In addition, Cash’s dam, Abby, although from a primarily hunting/field trial pedigree, also possesses a beautiful conformation, a calm personality, and has English Show Champions in her pedigree. In addition, both dogs have excellent health clearances, including OFA certified hips and elbows and CERF certified eyes.Man In Black “Cash” was sired by CH Dickendall Davaron Gable. His dam was Topshot Magical Trixter. Cash currently has six AKC Champions (CH) and four English Champions (Eng Ch) in his 4-generation pedigree.
