4X Grand Master Pointing Retrievers
4XGMPR (4X Grand Master Pointing Retriever) is the highest title a pointing Labrador retriever can earn in the American Pointing Labrador Association (APLA). This means the dog has passed the APLA Master test at least 8 times to earn this highly coveted title. Not all our members run in hunt tests, but those who do have done very well. Our young Club now has several 4XGMPR’s!
