HOTLRC holds an annual Labrador Specialty show, conformation matches, hunt tests, working certificate tests for hunting ability, Canine Good Citizen (CGC) tests, eye clinics, and other events for those interested in the Labrador Retriever breed.

All members who breed have agreed to do so responsibly.  Under no circumstances does the HOTLRC offer any guarantee on behalf of any member.
