A study of the Labrador Retriever bringing its treasure to his handler. The exquisite body shows the “form determining function” philosophy. The deep keel shaped powerful chest to cut through water easily, the strong musculature to power the swim, the water shedding coat, the rudder-shaped tail, and the soft deep jaw that gently holds the duck. The dog shown by his posture is focused on his handler, and is just about to sit to deliver the prize.
