Hi Labrador friends! We had a wonderful time hosting the 2026 LRCC National show last weekend!

We held off drawing on the quilt because with the crazy weather we did not have much of an opportunity to sell the last tickets!

We have a few tickets left and would love to sell out and draw for this beautiful creation!

Shipping included to the winner! Thank you for supporting the Labrador Retriever Club of Canada's 2026 National Show!
