The above quote came from the thread on the 2011 National Bird Dog Championship. I didn't want to hijack that thread any furtherVonzeppelinkennels wrote:Leighton's Ace Mona was the dam of Leipchen but I believe the Hermans owned her,I think Husser handled her though.
than it had been detoured, so I figured it'd be best to just start a new thread where folks could discuss Mona specifically......
Here's a couple links to threads regarding NFC/FC Leighton's Mona Ace, a dog I was trying to get some information on a while back:

Here's a picture of Mona:
Something to consider- Mona produced Rusty and Buddendorf from being bred to two different Sires. Rusty gets alot of credit for producing great dogs, I think alot of the credit belongs to his dam.
Hence my quest for a Mona linebred pup. But I do realize this desire is a longshot at best. So I'm willing to take a long, hard look at a Windwalkers Desperado or even a Dixieland's Luke linebred pup. A Buddendorf linebred pup would be the next best thing to a Mona linebred pup, imho. But that's almost as much of a longshot as getting a Mona linebred pup.
