My Maggie

Post by Haile » Tue Dec 26, 2006 10:23 am

I gotta brag on my GSP Maggie May. Maggie May is my BEST friend, house dog and hunting dog. She was born on St. Patrick's day 2001 which endears her to me a little more with me being of Irish decent.

Maggie May had her 1st litter of pups this year and did a bang up job with them. 6 boys and 3 girls, all perfect in every way (did you think that I would say that they weren't? :lol: ).

I waited to bred her to "the right" male and kept putting it off till this year when I stepped back and right in front of me was my own male, Tucker. I guess I never really thought about him till I was filling out the AKC dog kennel form and looked at his pedigree again.

Tucker was raised by Bob Merkel and is Wrenegade's Gabriel litter-mate. All this time I was looking for a tight bred Dixieland Luke bred dog and he was under my feet. Maggie May is by FC/AFC HMK's Dandi Runaway Rusty. So, I wanted to tie up as much of the charterists as I could of that bloodline that I love so much. In this breeding, I think that I have.

The pups that I have kept are birdy as heck and are always dragging something around. They are big bodied pups with lots of white and liver patches and liver heads. I have high hopes for these babies. I kept 2 boys and 1 girl. I'll keep Ya"ll posted on my Pups. :D

Yes, Maggie May did. Tucker came out of Iowa and is by Dixieland's Cool Hand Luke out of Dixieland's Jessie. I posted a link to Tucker's Pedigree.

Haile, congrats. If you have a littermate to Gabe, that litter in itself was very tight on Luke. That should be a litter made in Dixieland, Ha ha.
Good Luck

Yes, I am the cutecowgirl. Got tired of some of the PM's from other boards about that handle so I went with the middle name. :wink:

Ted, I really like that little Blaze dog. She is a hard worker and an honest dog.
