Sneyd’s are delighted to announce the sponsorship of Champion Gun dog Trainer David Latham. David feeds Sneyd’s Wonderdog Special to all his dogs, he is one of only three people who have won the I.G.L Retriever Championships four times (2003, 2010 & 2012 and most recently 2016).

Being introduced to gun dogs at a young age by his father, a rough shoot and rabbiting enthusiast; in 1978 he was given my first Labrador, Gunstock Sally – a black bitch, with whom he forged a close bond.

Becoming increasingly serious about his new hobby; a growing interest in handling led him to attend the gallery at Checkley Wood Field Trial in 1986. This made such an impression that he telephoned Sandra Halstead that night to reserve a black Labrador – Drakeshead Matt.

David’s first success came in 1989 during my very first novice trial with the Three Ridings Labrador Retriever Club.

The elation of bringing that Winning Trophy home meant he was hooked! As his handling developed, he set himself three goals:

  • To make a dog up to Field Trial Champion-(now achieved seven times).
  • To win an IGL Retriever Championship-(there have been 4 since 2003).
  • Be selected for the England Team-(first achieved at the Game Fair 2006).

David has an exceptional list of achievements such as:

  • Current Captain of the England Retriever Team
  • He has qualified 19 times for the Retriever Championships
  • To make a dog up to Field Trial Champion (now achieved seven times).
  • Becoming one of only three people to win an I.G.L. Retriever Championship four times
