The 2016 NationalRetriever Championship Stake

Dedicated To Judy Aycock

Judy’s fascination with dog training began when, as a teenager, she trained the family dog for obedience. After graduating from college she had a Shetland Sheepdog that she trained for competitive obedience. She was living in Los Angeles at the time and observed someone training a Labrador Retriever in a public park. She had observed Labradors in the obedience ring and thought they looked bored and thus was interested to see a very different working attitude. She began researching retriever field trials and learned of a famous retriever trainer, Rex Carr, in Escalon, California. Judy’s association with Rex lasted many years and she became his most successful pupil.

This began a 45 year odyssey of breeding, raising, training and competing with Labradors almost all of which are related to one of her first dogs. Judy has owned, trained and competed with 21 dogs who achieved FC-AFC status which include seven different Double Header winners, multiple National Finalists and two National Champions, “Honcho” (NFC-AFC San Joaquin Honcho) and “Cody” (NAFC-FC Trumarc’s Zip Code.) Other notable achievements are 17 dogs she trained and sold who ultimately achieved FC-AFC status including two National Champions, “Otus” (NFC-AFC Otus of Redfern) and “Dot” (NFC Trumarc’s Dot Come), two Double Header winners and one Country Life Trophy winner for High Point Derby dog (FC-AFC Carr-Lab Raiders Gain.)

Judy has served as Field Trial Secretary for North Texas Retriever Club for the past 35 years, served as Chief Marshal for the 1991 National Amateur Retriever Championship and Judge for the 1998 National Retriever Championship Stake. Much of the past 25 years have been spent developing and maintaining a premier retriever training facility.

We are pleased to dedicate this year’s National Retriever Club Championship to Judy Aycock.

In 1991, the PRTA adopted the following set of ethical guidelines for training during the National Championship. Our members pledge to abide by them and we ask all contestants to voluntarily join us in this effort to promote good sportsmanship and fair competition.

Guidelines For Ethical Training at NationalsThe object of the National is to bring out the best performance.TO FURTHER THIS END:

1. As much training may be done each day as required BEFORE entering the trials grounds or AFTER running a test. NO TRAINING may be done after observing a test until after you have run.

2. Train with as many people as required, excluding any person who has been to the trial and observed the test in progress.

3. Train on designated areas or ask permission on private property.

4. Keep corrections away from the public eye and ear.

5. Dispose of birds in a manner that will not affect public perception, or disrupt another training group.

It is our belief that once a test is viewed, any training which follows will be tainted and distorted by the viewing. Whether training alone or with a group, the viewing of the test will be reflected in what is done and how it is done. This influence is inevitable. Even if only the mannerisms of the handlers are influenced the test will be reflected. It will be reflected in the number of retrieves and whether the retrieves are short or long. It will be reflected in whether the retrieves are across the ditch, along the ditch, up the hill or down the hill, into the wind, crosswind, or downwind. Whether they be marks or blinds, whether “pattern work” sets up a mark or a blind, short or long, the test will be reflected. It may be reflected in so little as voice tone.

Any training done before actual viewing of the test is guesswork. Any training done after viewing is unfair advantage. This advantage is true even if the test is carried into the next day. When a test is carried to the next day the competitors have had the advantage of observing (or training prior to arriving at the trial) all the previous day’s work. Often there is also the advantage of partial callbacks. Any “disadvantage” of running the following day is outweighed by the advantage of knowing what the other dogs have done. Training overnight is an unfair advantage to late competitors.

Rotation is the means of neutralizing the draw. By and large it does a good job. Dogs which run early in one test will run late in the next test. Sometimes running early is best, sometimes late is best. One thing for sure, once you’ve seen the test, any training done is not fair competition.

The future of our great sport depends upon the ethical guidelines which we place upon ourselves. In the final analysis we are only competing against ourselves. We’re only winning or losing according to how we conduct ourselves.

When training at any time, caution should be taken to keep the image of field trials at a high level. Ask permission to train on private grounds. Keep corrections away from the public eye and ear and dispose of birds properly.

The object of the National is to bring out the best performance. The best performance involves every aspect of preparation and every part of ourselves. The winner is within.

Steve Karr, President

Notes

24

Field Trial Etiquette

1. Please stay in the area designated by the officials.2. While dogs are being tested, either on land or at the water, please

refrain from loud talking or other noises, also from unnecessary motions; all may be distracting and may seriously interfere with the dog work.

3. Do not applaud until the dog has completed the test, and is leaving the line.

4. Non-competing dogs are not allowed on the field trial grounds.5. Please cooperate with those responsible for the proper conduct of

this championship stake, especially with respect to the handling of traffic.

6. Please show your appreciation for the hospitality extended to us. Help keep the grounds clean – Extinguish cigarettes and matches.

YOUR COOPERATION IS APPRECIATEDThis is the Seventy Sixth Annual National Retriever Championship Trial. It is conducted by the National Retriever Club, Inc., under license from the American Kennel Club, Inc.

The retrievers competing in this trial have qualified in one or more of five ways and are limited to the following:

1. The winner of the 2015 National Championship Stake;2. The winner of the 2016 National Amateur Championship Stake

(must be handled by an Amateur in this Stake);3. The winner of the 2016 Canadian National Championship

Stake;4. The winner of the 2016 Canadian National Amateur Champi-

onship Stake (must be handled by an Amateur in this Stake);5. Winners of a first place, carrying five championship points,

plus two additional championship points in Open, Limited, or Special All-Age Stakes in trials held within the year preceding the National Championship Stake, which are staged by members of the National Retriever Club, Inc., which are also members of, or Licensed by, the American Kennel Club.

National Championship Stakes must include at least ten tests or “series,” equally divided between those on land and those on water.

At this trial, the judges will place only the winning dog, which is thereby entitled to the official designation, “National Retriever Champion of 2016.”

National Retriever Championship Rotation Procedure

The starting dog is drawn at the General Meeting the day previous to the beginning of the trial.

The rotation is determined by dividing the number of listed dogs in the catalog by a figure of four (4). These numbers are also announced during the General Meeting. Beginning with the starting dog, this divi-sion determines the dogs that start series one through four i.e. dog 35 starts an 80 dog trial. The division would be 35, 55, 75, 15. If any of these numbers are not listed in the callbacks the next higher number would start.

Following the fourth rotation, the rotation returns to the starting dog of the trial (35), excluding that dog and beginning with dog thirty-six (36), or the first working dog after dog thirty-six, five (5) working dogs (dogs listed on the callbacks) are counted and the sixth dog would start the fifth series.

Rotation for the remaining series of the trial would be, beginning with the dog that started the previous series and excluding that dog, counting five working dogs and the sixth dog would start.

No dog will start any series more than once. If the rotation landed on a dog that had previously started a series, that dog would be skipped unless all remaining dogs had already started a series, in which case the dog that was the first to start a series of the remaining dogs in the trial would be starting dog.
