Sein Besitzer Billy Steel Snr. beschreibt ihn wie folgt: "Paddy is a very confident friendly dog with no hang ups. He is a dog who loves to please and be with you. He has great pace and style but has the sense to slow right down when lack of scent demands it and is one of the best dogs I have had on a runner. He won the first novice trial he ran in and was made up to FTCh in 5 open stakes in his first season. He was great to train,  he is a very enthusiastic retriever and would retrieve dummies all day. Paddy is producing excellent progeny with good health stats and are winning regularly at open and novice field trials."
