I would like to thank all local, interstate, international, all breeds and particularly the Labrador specialist judges who have recognised and rewarded Delta's quality. Delta will now be semi-retired from the show ring and move into the TRACKING discipline.
It is particularly gratifying to receive positive comments and recognition from other Labrador breeders who also recognise her quality - thank you.
The following critiques are a testimony to her breed quality that has continued to develop as she has matured.

Delta - a very stylish young girl from impressive lines who has an outgoing nature and has thoroughly enjoyed her foray into the show world. We look forward to many enjoyable years with this very special girl.

1st Jones’s GR CH KIRKDELL DAZZLE N DELIGHT and a sheer delight she is! A black of the highest quality. Found all I was looking for in this super example of the breed. She has a head and expression to die for, so sweet and correct. Lovely melting expression, eye colour to match her coat, clean reach of neck, good bone, level top line held on the move. She has great balance and thus she puts herself right and never looks wrong. Her tail action on the move was lovely to see - moved off good developed quarters . So very pleased to award her C.C and B.I.S!! Thank you for bringing her.

Gr Ch Kirkdell Dazzle N Delight: It almost doesn’t get any better! A striking black that had almost all my ticket bitch had; head, jacket, tail, type to fill the eye with beauty; moved out with style & grace; most feminine expression; could compete & win anywhere; just lacked a tad upper arm to complete perfection; pleased to award her RCC
