{"product_id":"retriever-game-9780811737043","title":"Retriever Game","description":"Well before dawn on a mid-November morning, a caravan of customized pick-up trucks begins filing out of Duncan, Oklahoma. At that dark hour they appear to be nothing more than campers, but they are dog trucks. On straw and cedar shavings inside these mobile kennels are a half dozen Golden Retrievers, possibly a Chesapeake on vacation, and many, many Labradors. They are going to compete for six days in the most demanding trail of working retrievers--the National Championship Stake. \u003cbr\u003eThis destination is open to only the best dogs, champions like Hawkeye's Smokey Joe, B. B. Powder, Pot Pie's W. A. Mega, and Riggo. Boyd Gibbons has followed these dogs and their trainers on the circuit, capturing the lives they lead and the techniques they use on the road to the National Championship Stake. \u003ci\u003eThe Retriever Game\u003c\/i\u003e chronicles the lives and personalities of the men, women, and dogs chasing the Championship. \u003cbr\u003eFor anyone who loves retrievers, for anyone who enjoys a good dogs story, for anyone who knows a Labrador, Golden, or Chesapeake is an extension of the owner's personality, this look at the life on the field trial circuit will be informative and engaging reading.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stackpole Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780811737043\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.40d","brand":"Boyd Gibbons","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52418725085365,"sku":"9780811737043","price":11.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_7c81a2cd-809e-4acf-be78-9d7826d62602.jpg?v=1775570308","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/retriever-game-9780811737043","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
