Cudi was my first true hunting lab, I got him back in college. Truly a once in a lifetime dog to have, he never missed a hunting trip with me. Countless ducks, geese, doves, and pheasants shot over him, and retrieved by him. Time doesn’t slow, for even the best dogs, and he moved to greener hunting fields in March of 2024, after a full life of doing what he loved, and spreading it to everyone he met. He would always find a ‘sucker’ to talk into fetch. Whether a dummy, ball, stick, water bottle, or whatever he could find in a pinch; and he would never stop.
We do have some straws frozen from him, available for VERY selective breedings. And do plan to utilize some in the near future, feel free to reach out if you think you would have a great match.
