If you want the best...you have to start with the best! Even though Chewy won our hearts and is near perfect in every way...he turned out to be a bit larger (big boned) than first expected. So next we bought a smaller boned male and named him Harley. He did well in the conformation ring and earned several points on his way towards a championship, however, he got to a point where he didn't enjoy showing and there was an undesired personality trait that we did not want to pass on to future litters. Harley is still a pet today and retired. He enjoys sleeping in, eating bones, walks, and did we mention sleeping? We then decided to start our breeding program by acquiring a bitch with the best combination of healthy blood lines, bone structure, top line, temperament, and personality. Our search led us all the way to a well respected, long time, breeder in Brazil. We named our new puppy bitch Gracie Lou after Sandra Bullock's pageant character in the movie Ms. Congeniality..."Gracie Lou Freebush". Gracie Lou Cannon is the daughter of two Brazilian Grand Champions in conformation and is now a Grand champion herself here in the US. She is a great mama having already birthed several healthy girls and boys over three total litters. We are so blessed to have our Gracie Lou for life!
