Hall of Fame Freddy: Arkansas duck dog earns big honors while helping owner through trying times

Keith Hall's Labrador retriever, Freddy, joined an exclusive club with fewer than 70 dogs when he was inducted into the Hunting Retriever Club Hall of Fame in 2019. But the role Freddy played in helping his owner through a serious health crisis counts as another significant accomplishment.

I used to be a member of Pin Oak. I trained my fourth Lab to a HRCH title. I am on my seventh Lab and she helps me daily with my chronic pain from a car accident. I also have hunted Bayou Meto for many years. My Labs have always been part of the family.

Duck hunting ain’t like it used to be. Out of staters have completely ruined our waterfowl. And the people who don’t know how to hunt

exactly how we feel about deer hunting in Illinois.

The same with fishing in Florida.
