I purchased my first Doberman in 1972 as a companion for my family.
My initial plans did not include conformation, although I did plan to
obedience train her. When she was a little over a year old I decided I
wanted to try her in conformation as well as obedience. After several
owner-handled points, I gave her to Jeff Brucker, who put two majors on
her. I finished her myself with a third major - and I was hooked ! China
(CH. Warlock's Kachina Doll, CD) produced four champions and continues
to influence my pedigrees today.
I began showing dogs for my friends and puppy people
in the late 1970's. Over the years, this exciting sport has mushroomed
into a full-time profession. Dobermans are my first love, but I have
always enjoyed the smaller dogs also. In 1974, I purchased my first
whippet and found my second breed. It is amazing how these two breeds,
that are so different from each other, get along so well. They spend
hours a day exercising each other, making it easy for me to keep both
the Dobes and the Whippets in excellent condition and muscle tone.
Although I specialize in Dobermans and Whippets, I show other working
and hound breeds as well. Because client dogs often stay
with me for long periods of time, I integrate them into my household
routine as much as possible. This exposes the client dogs to a variety
of new situations and helps them to form a bond with me. It also
facilitates their training and showmanship. I breed and raise occasional
litters of Dobermans and Whippets, striving to produce healthy
conformationally correct dogs with outstanding temperaments. We
occasionally have show and companion puppies available to approved
homes. Please feel free
to contact me for more information .
