The Archive information from our club is  extensive and irreplaceable and therefore 
​greatly protected by club officers.  

Over time, we hope to post a variety of historic information  which will give an insight to the beginnings and subsequent growth of the
Northumberland and Durham Labrador Retriever Club.  


At present, we have a selection of  running cards for some working tests and trials from the 1960's and 70's together with some information on the origins of our working trophies.  Also  a selection of catalogues from Championship Shows - starting with the first club Championship Show in 1946!    

It is interesting to see just from these few documents, how things such as presentation, judging and regulations have change.

We also have some Breed Standards from past years too and a wonderful image gallery spanning Our Century!  
There are some fascinating articles in the Miscellaneous Working section.


We would love to hear any memories or comments from people on the items posted  which will be noted and incorporated wherever possible.  Naturally due to the age of some of this paperwork it is not as clear as we would like on reproduction;
​but we have done our best.
