Pioneer Valley

Can anyone tell me the dates of the LRC of Pioneer Valley show this year? I am trying to schedule my vacation days. Thank you.

Re: Pioneer Valley

May 13 and 14 is what I'd assume, since last year was May 14 and 15. But a club member might be able to help better

Re: Pioneer Valley

Who is Bob Robotham? Is he a lab person what is his kennel name?

Re: Pioneer Valley

Bob Robotham is a judge in Canada and a long time handler as well. He is very well known for handling, known by some as the 'Labrador Handler of the time'. He handled many Lindenhall Dogs and is best known for Ebonylane's Buccanneer Gold's multiple Best in Shows. Ebonylane's Buccanneer Gold's was the top Labrador in Canada for several years in the 80's.

Pioneer Valley is always a great show - this year sounds no different. Can't wait!
