FUTURE  BREEDING

We are considering doing a different sort of breeding in a year or year and a half. Sophie would be bred to a yellow, probably FC Blackwater’s Last Resort( FC-AFC Blackwater Rudy x a MH daughter of FC-AFC Dare To Dream),  a three year old yellow male from South Dakota. Litter would be all black, all yellow factored with app. 1/2 of the pups being tri-factored. We would be keeping a trifactored, eic clear puppy for ourselves. Let us know if you have any interest in this breeding or if you have questions. We are also considering doing the breeding with our own Morgan.

 

2010 LITTERS PLANNED

At the present time we are planning two litters for 2010 with the mothers being our chocolate factored black female Sophie and our chocolate female Lily.

Lily came into season on Dec. 4, 2009 ( her first season) so she will not be bred until her second season. Since she has had only one season we can only guess when that would be but in all probability it will be an early fall-fall litter and willl probably be an all chocolate litter.

 Sophie will be bred when she comes into season which could be at any time ( as of 1/27/2010). Arrangements have been made with Bruce Mountain of Iowa to breed Soph to Bruce’s fine young Qualified all-age chocolate male, MHR Mountain’s Top Watermark’n  Woody MH. Should be a spring/late spring litter. Litter should be 1/2 black, 1/2 chocolate with all puppies eic tested at 3 days.  As of 2/16/2010 we, and Sophie, are still waiting!

 At the present time we are considering a few different stud dogs. High on our list is:

1. MHR Mountain’s Top Watermark’n Woody MH, QAA is a 70 pound chocolate male owned by Bruce Mountain near DesMoine, Ia. Woody is only three and is out of FC Nan Dool’s Elwood Blues. Complete info on Woody can be seen on Bruce’s website  www.topchocolatelabs.com. Woody will probably be our first choice for Sophie.

2. HRCH Heidl’s Mallard Machine MH is a now deceased, beautiful, 80 pound Chocolate male  with a ton of hunting experience and great stlye along with a proven record of producing fine pups. Swiper was owned by Tom Heidl near Oshgosh, Wi. More info can be seen on Tom’s website, www.lockednloadedlabs.com.

3. Ten Bears Road Trip, QAA is a 75 pound chocolate male owned by Mike Judas near Galesburg, Il. Tick has an Open Win. We have used Tick three times and the pups have been just great. More info can be seen on Mike’s website, www.tenbearkennels.net. Tick will probably be our first choice for Lily.
