Elhew Sinbad
Anybody here have much experience with Sinbad? What do you think of him as a producer? Obviously, his reputation precedes him, but I've seen famous dogs from which I wouldn't touch a puppy. What do you like or dislike about his pups?

Re: Elhew Sinbad
Well he produced a national ch in Covey Rise Offlee Amazing. I've had quite a few pups out of him. I have a female right now out of him that I am very high. From what I've seen from his pups is very athletic, tough and smooth gaited animals. I've seen him run as a young dog when he was a SD. Fun to watch!
Re: Elhew Sinbad
Stoneface I believe that Harris Kennels has a dbl CH Blackhawk female due to drop anytime with pups by Sinbad. They are good people and easy to deal with as I'm sure you have already discovered as I see you already have a dog from them. Goodluck, SCK

I think most pay too much attention to the male. There's some females that just produce winners, whipporwill girl, wiggins miss sammie come to mind, it takes two. Looking through the national champions at www.birddogfoundation.com some females keep producing winner after winner.

Can you post a direct link to where you can view all national champions? I can't find anything.

Re: Elhew Sinbad
While I agree the National Ch. is the big daddy, but I look for consistancy. Lou produced the top 3 all time winning shooting dogs. All different sires. Thats insane!

I have lots of fun with this page. I google the individual dogs looking for pedigrees. Like elhewpointer said some females just keep coming up over and over. This list of national champions is the one i hold to be above all IMO.

Re: Elhew Sinbad
I have a Sinbad (Brute x Swami) x Elhew Mayflower (Explorer x Sunflower) female that just turned 3. She is the first Pointer that I have had from that blood, and I like her so far. I have to take things relatively slow with her because she doesn't like any level of correction, but she has a lot of nice attributes. She hunts hard, is very honest and looks good moving and on point. She is relatively soft though. I am planning to start her force breaking in the next 1-2 weeks, and I believe that will be a slow process as her heal and whoa breaking took forever. I purchased her primarily for breeding purposes, but she has been a pleasure to hunt with.
I do have one question for those of you more familiar with these lines. Please feel free to respond via PM, but I have heard from several different people around the country concerning knee issues with these lines.

Re: Elhew Sinbad
I had a full brother to your dog different litter. I won the Derby portion of the Arkansas Ch. A few years ago. I literally named him Nella Reclous Abandon because he was so tough. I've never had any knee issues with any of my dogs.Drifter Saver wrote:I have a Sinbad (Brute x Swami) x Elhew Mayflower (Explorer x Sunflower) female that just turned 3.

I've been around several of Brutes off-spring. The ones i was around were anything but soft and they took correction better than most dogs i've seen. This particular trainer was not afraid to put hands on his dogs so i'd say i witnessed a good test of their toughness and ability to handle correction. I've not heard of knee problems out of the Brute side. I worked around several of his older offspring who were still getting after it.

Re: Elhew Sinbad
It was a joke. Your guys' sense of humor is as long as your guys' dogs tails.
Re: Elhew Sinbad
No offense taken Vagas. If you look at my signature you will see a couple long tails in there! Being from Wichita I have always been a fan of Lou and that bloodline. I was lucky enough to see her in field when I was in high school. I have known several people with Lou bred dogs so I do have some first hand knowledge. All I will say is I own a Sinbad daughter and plan to breed her to Elhew Twister. That will be double bred Lou and I am not worried about knee problems.

My mistake. I generally like a little ball busting but on here you can never tell and i missed the Ha on the end.ElhewPointer wrote:It was a joke. Your guys' sense of humor is as long as your guys' dogs tails.
Re: Elhew Sinbad
I've seen him run on a couple of occasions, he is a good looking dog, decent stride, runs a little low headed, and probably more of a big shooting dog than a true all age. He seems to breed well, and most of his success seems to come when he is used back on Elhews.
I have to admit that I love the Elhew dogs, and every female I have kept over the last 5 years has gone back to Hanna's elhew lou. They are good, consistent bird dogs. I have owned other blood, and personally none of it stayed here. I have found that for me to like them they need a shot of elhew.
