Entry Questionnaire

Owner Name: Joe Moody

Dog Full Name: Loon Lakes Early Flyer

When did you begin competing in Field Trials?

2019

What made you decide to compete in Field Trials?

I think like a lot of people in FT’s, I started out just wanting a nice hunting dog. That’s evolved to really enjoying the training aspect and the competitive nature of FT’s.

Who are your training partners at home?

For the most part, my training partners are fellow members of the Sioux Valley Retriever Club in Hartford, South Dakota. It’s a great group that have been extremely helpful and supportive

What is the origin of your dog’s name?

Green Wing Teal are one of my favorite ducks to hunt. Emmy is short for Emerald Green, which is the color of their Eye Patch and Wing Speculum.

Tell us an interesting story or fact about your dog.

Emmy is an extremely affectionate dog and spends 95% of her time within arms reach of me.

You and your dog have made it through nine series of the National Derby Championship. You are about to come to the line for the 10th series with a chance to win the 2023 National Derby Champion. What song and artist would you want to hear playing as the two of you come to the line?

Blur – "Song 2"

Down the hill, angled into the pond, swam the angle across, angled left up the hill, had a hunt on the left side of the gunners, continued the hunt in front and to the right of the guns as well. Then she went into the cover and got her bird!
