We cannot thank Judy Kennon-Wray and Jazmyn Wray enough for this amazing girl!
The moment Vicky met Fly she decided she wanted to bring her home!
'Fly's' show career started with a bang!.... Best Baby Puppy in Show at her very first show at just 3 months old! Followed up quickly by another four Baby in Group awards. She was also Best Baby Puppy in Show at the Flat Coated Retriever Associations Championship and Open Shows in November 2008!
In Total, Fly won 30 Class in Group and 7 Class in Show awards in her first year, making her the biggest winning Flat Coated Retriever puppy in Australian history!.. until beaten by her son "Storm"
Fly finished her show title at the age of 13 months, something which we had a part of, Vicky being there to handle Fly for her last points for her title and winning Junior in Group at the same show!
Fly gained her 500th Challenge point at just 22 months old and at 28 months old, Fly won her First Best Exhibit in Group award.
Fly won Flat Coated Retriever Puppy of the Year for 2009 awarded by the Flat Coated Retriever Association of Victoria.
During 2010 Fly won numerous class in group, in shows, Best Exhibit and Runner up in Group awards and amassed an impressive 400 challenge points! She was also the No 1 Flat Coated Retriever bitch in the country.
In her time in the ring in New Zealand she was awarded a BISS, RBISS, Reserve in Group and multi class in group awards. She was also awarded BCC and RBOB by Frank Kane (UK) at the 2014 NZKC National Dog Show over a number of other dogs.
Fly gained her Grand Championship title in January 2012!
Fly is now retired from the show ring after injuring herself at home, a well-earned retirement. We are thrilled with the lovely puppies she has produced, two New Zealand Champions, two Australian Champions and an Australian Supreme Champion!
