Post by kninebirddog » Thu May 02, 2013 12:13 am

Sonny did a good job siring some very nice dogs 1st 2nd and 3rd place winners at the Western Brittany Futurity All Age by 2 different females....

Guess we can't just call him patches dad anymore :mrgreen: :lol: :mrgreen:

Outstanding! :D Sounds like Sonny can add "potent stud" to his list of accomplishments.

Sonny's grandsire is Nolan's Last Bullet. So much for all those who say a NSTRA dog has no business in an all age breeding program. :roll:

Knine: thanks for the information.

I had to add a picture. It was taken at Mile Post 9 near Marsing, Idaho. The Idaho Brittany Club did a fantastic job with the Futurity and I offer them many thanks. The first two placements are litter mates, third place is Patch their half brother a pup I own and have posted some pics of over the last couple of years, and the fourth place dog is their Uncle Smoke. He was sired by NGDC FC San Dee's Blazing Shane...he is my Sonny dogs sire as well. We think Patch may be the first Futurity dog in the Brittany world that is FC/AFC and with a 1 hour American Field recognized championship, he has been a fun little dude... good times and thank you all again for the kind words..Joe

That is some HUGE country, I hope to make out there to see some dogs run. I would like to see some that made that country not look so big!

Lisa and Paul both came out and judged, they really seemed to enjoy themselves. They went to all the events and were great ambassadors. The all-age side is steeper and rockier where Lisa was judging, she was on a strange horse so she took a prudent pace for the first day or so...they had not been out west before and it's hard to describe the terrain and navigating it until you do it. Coop, we would love to see you out here...as you know, dogs are pretty much the same north, south, east and west the exposure just gets them reacting to different objectives.
