LLano Rapids comes from a superior line of generations
consistently known for being a clean well bodied, strong moving
labrador. Llano's grandfather, CH TABATHA'S DRIFTER AT DICKENDALL,
had all the trademarks of the perfect labrador. Drifter had
beautiful balance, strait topline, strong headpiece, magnificent
bone, endearing expression, and gentle manners. Drifter was
a devoted companion and a prolific producer of outstanding stock
with many champion and performance titled children to his credit.
Drifter was Top Producer of the Year 2001, according to Labrador
Quarterly , and when he was shown by Kendall Herr in 1992, he
was Winners Dog, Best of Winners, and Best Opposite in Sweepstakes
at the Labrador Club National Specialty. AN ENORMOUS HONOR!!!
Again in 1992, he was Winner's Dog, Best of Winner's @ Mid Jersey
Labrador Retriever Club Specialty. Drifter also got BEST OF
BREED, from the Labrador Retriever Club of Piedmont in 1994
and 1995. 1997 brought BEST OF BREED from the Boston Specialty

BEST line of labradors ever produced!
