and third times a loser. let's see, she's 2 for 4 with the field trials she's been in. incase you don't know what that means, out of 4 stakes she's been entered in, she has place first in 2 of them. don't believe me? look at this months GSP chronicle. month of may. yep, she has both her open and amateur puppy points. i know, only lowly puppy points, but you have to start somewhere. besides, she's not even a year old yet. and yes, she is a good pet. spends some time in the house on the couch. don't worry tho, i'll keep you updated on her progress. :mrgreen:

I haven’t spoken to Jim yet, still too early where he lives. I do know a lot of what he knows and as far as I am concerned it means nothing because 70 to 80 present of what the dog becomes is what you put into him.

Casey hasn’t Rusty been dead for a good 25-30 years and DNA testing has only been for about 10 years, and as far as I know Rusty has never been collected, but what you are saying is that someone DNA’ed a 15 plus year old dog. Please explain.

Also can you post Rusty’s record, how many championships has he won?

I agree.

I agree.
I have his AKC progeny report. His AF production record is listed with in his HOF bio. I don't have his trial activity or win records, but they would be with the sanctioning bodies.

Two of his sons, Rexx and QRSR, have AKC DNA. Koonass does not, but it could be done from an AI sample. Comparing offspring DNA of offspring would indicate paternal alleles. There can only be two possibilities, so a process of elimination would establish origin.


I researched quite a few pedigrees when the LD scare hit and kept it up because of some temperament issues in my dogs.

Well Joe thanks for the warning, but I am a big boy and can make a fool of myself just as well as anyone else can.

First Rusty’s pedigree has very little to do with fact. Rusty started life as a very big running, powerful derby and did get bred early, unfortunately many of the pups from the first two litters were put down because they became very aggressive when the turned a one year old. Eddy had a pointer by the name of Duke (I think that was his name and was a half brother to Rusty). In other words that pointer and Rusty had the same sire (a pointer). Eddy knowing that he needed to be careful about what got bred rarely allowed people to be present when they wanted to breed to Rusty. Almost all of Rusty’s breeding was done by his half brother, not Rusty.

I am not going to name names, but will tell you that Rusty’s and Duke’s sire was well known amongst pointers and has sired at least one dog that won Ames and that dog was from Georgia. If you know pointer lines and what was produced by Duke you can figure it out, a number of the health problems that were in that line showed up in both sides (I am not talking about LD, I don’t know where that came from).

I think I read that Rusty loved to retrieve so much that they could not keep him broke. Whether because of that or because he was simply black hearted I could not say, but both him and his brother were head cases and a lot of that came out in the pups.

Now how do I know this, well all I will say is that, I am original from Georgia.

Casey you need to turn off your computer, get a couple of dogs and get out into the real world, buddy it’s nice that you have an interest, but you can’t learn about dogs and field trialing sitting in a chair. Go out smell the fresh air play with some pups, life is too short to waste it in front of a screen.

gpblitz,

The problem with spitting it out is that, 99% of the people can't handle the real truth. They get so focused on something, and convince themselves that what they have(dog/bloodline) is the best ever that they cant see the forest from the trees.

"Nice looking dog to bad about the tail!"

Sorry been busy wth the dogs, missed a bunch. Somehow I knew the "die hard win at all costs guys" would be looking at the wrong end of the dog. I will play games for fun not live and die by them. If one chooses to win at all costs "bleep" the anything in the way, more power to you. I won't win everytime I enter but I "bleep" sure will have a full game bag after hunting which is reallly why I got into these dogs.

Oh yeah and I won't have to look at those chicken boned ugly critters doing it.

I should think you would have the ability to obtain that yourself, being as you're a judge. Research is $50/hour, plus expenses if you'd like me to do it for you. No Google, though, I'm a Yahoo user.

This all makes sense. In the mid 90's I was having a friendly discussion with Jeff Schick the owner of a HMK's Dandy Runaway Rusty about who was a better sire. I was lobbying for Beiers Evolution, and Jeff was lobbying for Rusty. Jeff's argument was that Rusty was a better sire because he was bred less than Jack. He based his opinion upon the difficulties that people had getting access to Rusty because of his owner.

Vision,

Were you able to see HMK's Dandy Runaway Rusty in person? I can only find one picture of him and he looks pretty clean to me. If what Jim is saying is true, then there is a very good chance that Dandy was half pointer. The same would be said for Koonas, Big Oaks Tiny Tim, Luke, and others. All those dogs look like Shorthairs to me with a pretty good roman nose. Then again pictures are only worth so much and I never saw any of these dogs in person. I have a hard time believing that a full pointer/shorthair cross wouldn't show it, all the ones I have seen are pretty obvious.

Did he look half GSP? For crying out loud. Haven't you ever seen a mutt that looked like a specific breed? There have been times i've said, "that's a nice looking Golden" just to hear, "Oh, he's half lab half golden". When you get two breeds that look so similar to begin with, im sure there are some dogs that looked like GSP's and some that looked like pointers. It's not rocket science.

So just in talking about the best GSP ever, I started doing some research. Well I came across a dog that has a lot of winning as of late, but it confuses the crap out of me. The Jimkath's Havoc dog that has just won 3 national titles in the last year seems to be a winner, but I guess I don't understand how the AKC will let the dog compete when they don't even know who the grandsire is. How is that even possible?

Ahumphers I don’t recall the registered name of Duke nor would I tell you because Duke’s owners are still around and are what you would call extremely classy people and have done a lot for field trials as a whole. I will tell you that Duke did start as an all age on a very competitive sting and if I’m not mistaken either won or placed in some big derby stakes. That pro was not able to get him field trail broke and that is how Husser got him. Eddy got him broke, but like his brother was somewhat black hearted, but Eddy did get him polished up and back on the circuit. If I am not mistaken either won or placed in one or two all age championships. By the end of that season he was no longer broke and went back to Husser. Eddy could not fix him again and either he was given to Ed or was simply kept on his string.

By the way I don’t know if Duke’s owners knew what Eddy was doing with him and strongly suspect they did not.

I almost went home with him when he was 3 ½ to 4 years old, but when Eddy showed him to me he ripped the first bird he put him on and then looked perfect on the next two. What Eddy told me was that “he was as broke as he would ever be”. Although I mostly hunt, I will not shot a birds over an unbroken dog.

Dirtysailer why on earth would you attack a guy like Joe that is one of the most successful GSP amateur ever and trained and ran the all time championship winner? I judge people on how willing they are to spread their knowledge and help those that need and want help. Buddy you just picked a fight with the wrong guy. I guess your name implies classness and that is what you are.

Ahumphers unless you have seen every dog of all time, you can NOT answer this question. Now if you want to ask who was the top producer I am pretty sure that was Saddle with his get winning well over 600 stakes, the all time championship winner as I am sure you know was Tulli’s Scatback, I believe Flash Dance Jenny won the most nationals, Thunder was the only dog to win Boonville three years in a row and Clown was the only dog to win Eureka three years in a row, but to call any of these dogs the best ever is a statement made by someone of very little knowledge about dogs and GSPs as a whole.

Its his dog so of course he's going to say it was "the best". Or maybe he's just having fun. Idk, but its hard to shy away from Joe's dog's record. Insane is a good word for it.

I'm not saying she wasn't a great dog. And I agree wild birds mean a lot. But, I would have to say personally, to be considered THE BEST EVER, the dog should win a national title of some sort. The GSP's have quite a few "national" titles. Also, her littermate doing certain things doesn't mean anything as far as her being the best. She seems like she was one heck of a dog though and you should be very proud!

I think you're getting fuzzed up over nothing. I said she was a GREAT dog. IMO, not the best. There are millions of dogs that will never do what she did. Take a compliment. As I stated, you should be very proud.

No disrespect meant to him at all. In fact she's in my Ruby's ped. Me thinks we need a new thread for Greatest GSP bitch ever. Any takers on starting it?

Howie if this is the case as stated with Rusty he unfortunately wouldn't be the only HOF dog that rumors say was the "sire" on paper only...

Hey it’s the mouth from the south! Well James you know I sure did like that little bitch of yours, but her record was way short of the all time best 21 championship wins and 12 championship runner-ups. Regardless I would have taken her home in a heartbeat and would have won a heck of a lot more championships too. After all she was at disadvantage having been handled by such a poor handler. :wink:

You know what maybe she was the all time best considering the handy cap she was strapped with.

Love you baby, but you just keep on trying to catch me, maybe after I retire you may get a bit closer! 8)

The King! :lol:
