I was not
puppy shopping when I came across this little guy. In fact, I had been
checking out his sire, Am/Can
Ch. Jade Mist Belmark Bragging Rights as a possible candidate for Am/Can
Ch. Wyndsong's Shiloh. But the moment my eyes fell on Charger,
I was hooked. And it wasn't long before he was traveling to stay in Oregon
with Barbara Aulbach to grow out for me. Although
Charger was going to be just six months old, I wanted to show him at the August
shows. So I brought him up to Alaska for the experience... and what an
experience it was! He won his class all three days, and was winners dog
for a five point major on the last day. I
remember telling his breeder, Bella
Thompson, that I was confident he would point early on. What a happy
phone call that was to report I was right! We
are so happy with this confident, personality plus puppy! He has a
beautiful, arched neck, solid body, excellent angulation, nice bone, full
muzzle, sweet expression, long tail, and ears that nearly meet in the
middle! Charger
finished with a five point major, going Best of Winners as well. He
is proven, with a lovely litter of four girls and a boy - His daughter Wyndsong
Radiance was pulled to the final five in the 9-12 sable bitch class at the
2011 ASSA National.
