(to note Alpha was bred by Wayne and Norma Touve)

Alpha has started a very impressive campaign.  He has been trained and handled by his owner Jonathan Paddock.  Alpha's first venture into the AKC show ring as a puppy in the 9 - 12 month class produced 2 first place ribbons and one Reserve Winner's Dog against some very competitive show dogs.  Alpha's next visit to the show ring brought home an International Confirmation Title.  In Alpha's written Judges critiques the German judge's over all impression of Alpha was and I quote "Powerful."  Powerful he is, at 25 inches tall and 72 pounds Alpha is marbled with muscle.  The German judge went on to write that Alpha has a well developing chest (he was after all only 11 months old) magnificent movement, good scissor bite, good front and rear angulation and a powerful topline.  Alpha's next campaign was off to the Hunt Test arena.  Jonathan took Alpha first to Kansas where he was top Junior dog both days and finished Alpha's Junior Hunt Title in their home state of Colorado the following week end.  3 out of 4 Tests Alpha was the top scoring Junior.   Jonathan decided to skip Seniors and jump directly into Masters and Alpha was ready for the task.  His last two points were taken easily being the top dog in the field. 

Alpha is now a Master Hunt titled dog all owner handled & trained.  He is OFA good and standing at stud.  For details please contact Jonathan below.
