Hey folks.
I do not want this to read as insulting. I just want to learn. As I am a Chesapeake Bay Retriever person and know very little about the labradors. The frozen in question is from a junior hunter? And this is valuable/desirable?
Why is that?

It is a chocolate lab combo parentage of field trial and show ring which is desirable by some folks.
By those who wish to produce pretty hunting dogs who are neither superior in the field or the show ring?

And I thank you very much for the answer and the correctness of your politicals. I honestly did not understand why they were sperm freezing on a Junior Hunter. Aren't there any NFC/NAFC type Labradors that toss chocolate? Couldn't they prance in a circle at Westminster on Thanksgiving if they wanted to?

A dog could have value in a breeding program even if the larger world sees no use for it. The chocolate Lab gene pool is pretty small in both the show world and field. The dog in question is a grandson of a CH/MH from so long ago he has fallen off the edge of most pedigree charts. There is something to be said for broadening a gene pool out beyond whoever is the latest NFC.

I would think this would be of interest to the show type person that knows the bottom side. Just on my knowledge of chocolates it is a Different old influx of Chocolate blood (bottom side) As for Ryder there was very limited semen available on blue Ryder, he had pretty limited breeds to both show type stock and FC type stock as he had the unfortunate issue of being chocolate ;). There were some straws available on Cuda, but that was 15 yrs ago when I searched so who knows now. In any case for the limited breeding on these lines even the show crosses have produced some of the most noteworthy field chocolates FC AFC GRHRCH MNH upper Pointing titles etc. and even a few blacks of this generation, even a few CH if I remember correctly. I'm not familar with this bottom side but just thinking legacy associated with dogs like Cuda Blue Ryder, Pirate, Roux, Drake, Buddy, Preacher, Mastro. For $1800 having something like this to breed back to might be worthwhile, if someone was looking into adding diversity to tyically heavily inbred chocolate lines.

I'm not really a chocolate person, but I would suggest mentioning it on Facebook in the Dual Purpose Labrador group, Performance Labrador group, and Labrador Retriever Frozen Assets group. That's a place more likely to appreciate the show x field trial cross.
