I gave my daughter the choice from a litter of nine.  She picked the runt.  I was not happy, but I had promised.  The runt turned out to be Patti.  It took awhile for her to grow into herself.  I credit Allison Bitler Maney for helping me see past her white haw and comical puppy face.  Patti went on to win Best Bred By in Show and reserve at two specialties.  She finished with three majors, all from the bred by exhibitor class.  Patti was the winner of the prestigious Charlette Brayshaw Award from the American Boxer Club.

Patti has lived up to her nickname “bratty Patti”, always ready for a game.  She is the dam of three champions from her only litter and is currently being shown in Junior Showmanship by 10 year old Logan Davis.

Rumer, another plain with numerous reserves.  Great temperament and another super producer.  Bred twice, Rumer has 5 offspring competing for their championships.  Rumer is my traveling companion and a great ambassador for the breed.

What can I say about Copy?   From the time she was four weeks old she sat and watched me.  I’d be doing something around the house and I’d feel those dark eyes just looking.  Telling me... 
Like her mother Patti, Copy was the smallest, the least impressive and the plainest.  But there was something…. She is a dream come true for me.  A GREAT show dog.  A wonderful and funny companion and friend to my whole family.  A tribute to her magnificent father.

When Lynne Morin asked me to find her a puppy she could show and finish herself, I gave her Skye.  Skye finished with two specialty majors and a best in sweeps.  Lynne had her first owner handled champion.  Syke’s outrageous sense of humor is truly all Boxer.  A spring breeding is planned to Ch. Crystos Image of Arriba SOM.

Harley was my pick bitch from this long awaited line breeding on some truly old Boxer pedigrees.  I am grateful to her breeders Laurie Lavalley and Regina Rogers for letting me have this lovely girl.   Harley is pointed but prefers the couch to the show ring.  She is the best friend and companion to Billy Turner.  Pending health testing she will be bred this fall.  Harley has extraordinarily beautiful eyes and expression as well as a wonderful temperament.
