Planned for 2011
Spongebob x Hadley breeding
This Spring 2008 breeding produced some superstars, so on Laredo's next heat we're heading
back up to see Jessica and Junior. I'm planning on keeping the males but females will be available.
Pedigree of Laredo/Junior pups
Dam: Laredo
2005, 47lbs, from very large lines, owned by Christina Eagle
and Quentin Sprague. 50% German Shorthair Pointer, 25% English Pointer, 25%Alaskan husky. Bred by Rex Jones out
of Balto x Cherokee. Led all three days for Wendy Callis in the 2008 LNAC's.
Sire: Junior
2005, 67lbs, owned by Jessica Doherty. 50% English Pointer, 50%
Alaskan husky. Bred by T&B Streeper out of Crazy x Zazz. Jessica says "Junior is an exceptional dog & leader with
the best head she's seen in 22 years". He is out of Crazy, a known producer of hard headed leaders. Several littermates
are also running on the Streepers main team, including 2008 Fur Rondy & ONAC.

Laredo flew into Boston from Fairbanks, Alaska on Tues evening (3/18) at 5:10pm. She was in stage 3 of her
heat cycle, so Ayana and I jumped in the truck and drove another 600 miles one way to Jessica and Brian's
in Palermo, NY to pair her with Junior. Within 8 minutes of the pairing, we had a nice long tie! I left
to take a shower, came back an hour later and Junior and Laredo were at it again for a second tie.
**UPDATE*** 8/9/08
Megan and Quentin chose Squidward, Plankton, Sandy Cheeks and Karen. We chose:
Spongebob - the LARGEST male of the litter. At 9 weeks, his front paws were bigger than his mom
Laredo's. Excellent drive and build. Fights with Pearl to stay in front.
| Spongebob- had first snow run 11/22!! |
|
| 62 lbs at 6 months- built like Junior |
Pearl - The largest female of the litter. VERY muscular like her dad Junior. She
was a standout in terms of attitude and competitiveness from the very first time we did some leash and puppy
harness work.
| Pearl-Natural leader from day one- HATES point |
|
| 50 lbs at 6 months |
Miss Puff - The pup that looks most like Laredo from the litter. Also a very driven and competitive
female. Very confident. Strutted around the dog yard with all the adults when she was 10 weeks old like she
was boss and ran the place.
| Miss Puff at 6 months - 53 lbs |
|
| Exceptional conformation |
Happy Patty - What is striking about Patty is her wide ribcage. We used to call her
fatty patty, but I was informed, "Mom, she's not fat. She's big ribbed." She's named after the famous Crabby
Patty on Spongebob, but she's too happy so it didn't fit. She is best friends with her bro Spongebob.
| Patty at 6 months - 57 lbs |
|
| Very muscular shoulders and blocky head like Junior |
