Some interesting clippings from a Buzz article:
Buzz is Apollo's sire. Buzz’s full registered name is Aquarius Centercourt Delight.
Owners of Buzz are Kathy Sneider, VMD & Julie MacKinnon.
Champion Aquarius Centercourt Delight has an almost unparalleled career, his nickname is Buzz. “Ready to go” might be an understatement. This exuberant 92 pound yellow Lab, who Kathy calls a “goofball,” has traveled extensively in his show career, rising in the ranks to become not only the top US Labrador in the show ring for 2003, but also to rack up some record breaking numbers for the breed:
- He has the most Best in Show wins in a single year for any Labrador in recorded history: 7
- The most Group wins in a single year: 31 (Labradors are in the Sporting Group.)
- He is the #2 Sporting Dog in the country right now, in this Group of almost 30 breeds.
- He is also the #17 dog overall- of all show dogs in the country!
This overall ranking is almost unheard of for a Labrador because despite their #1 ranking with the public, Labradors are generally not as popular with the judges at All-Breed shows.
- Multiple BIS & Multiple BISS winner.
- #1 Labrador USA 2003, 2004, 2005
- Biggest winning labrador in history
His sire was 2-time Westminster Best of Breed winner and multiple Specialty Winner CH Lobuff's Bare Necessities CD JH- the #1 Lab in the country for both ’93 and ‘95.
Certainly one of the grandest moments of Buzz’s career was his Best of Breed win at the highly esteemed Labrador Retriever Club of the Potomac Spring Specialty in April 2002. Considered by most to be the largest Labrador show in the world, the Specialty had 962 Labs entered that year! (most Specialties have entries of 150-300.) Buzz’s co-owner, Julie, was handling him at Potomac and as he continued to make it through the judge’s cuts, several of their friends suggested with excitement that he might get a Judge’s Award of Merit (aka “JAM.”) “I’m not here for a JAM!” Julie said with a smile of determination, and sure enough, Buzz was announced the winner. Kathy remembers the occasion with great delight: “as soon as they called his name, I jumped over the ring fence and went running...I’m hugging Julie and Buzz, and the Ring Steward is trying to get me out of the ring so they can finish!”
