Hope Springs Rufsail JH**WDX (DC AFC Sunday's Rufwater Canvasback MH x CH Puffin II JH CD WDX)
has been bred to Tugboat Woods Colt MH WDQ (Chestnut Hills Ironwood Oak MH*** x Jezebel of the Hollow) for a January litter. This is a line breeding on "Woody" and both parents have produced outstanding offspring.

For those waiting for Canvas bloodlines with no risk of the newly identified gene for DM, here you go! Jib looks just like Canvas and inherited his toughness. She's on the left in top photo, pictured with Scott Martin and Canvas (Center) and Decks (right) at the 2005 ACC FT specialty.

Jib, better known as the Thug is a strong, muscular 80 lb. bitch that inherited the intelligence, marking ability and bottom of her sire, Canvas. She's fearless on big water, excellent marker, hard-running, tough bitch that produced 9 nice puppies in her first litter. She is brown, with piercing yellow eyes. OFA Excellent hips, normal elbows, CERF, PRA Clear by Parentage, DM A/A.

Colt is an extremely handsome light deadgrass male that has produced very nice offspring. He ran limited hunt tests locally and was exclusively trained/run by a gentleman in his late 80s. Excellent marker, handles like a Cadillac, gorgeous heavily waved thick coat, pretty little 'show dog' ears. Colt is OFA Good, Normal elbows, CERF annually, PRA clear by Optigen, and DM Clear.

No need for an ultrasound, "BRONKA" is huge, weighed 92 lbs today midway through her pregnancy. She looks like a water buffalo.

Jib had 10 puppies early a.m. Jan. 2, including FIVE RARE ASH! 5 are brown ranging from dark to light, possibly deadgrass, too early to tell.

Thanks for sharing. Adorable.

Female pup became available, call for info., strongly prefer working home for her. The females are shown below:

Julie,

I finally figured it out.....

You roll your pups in powdered sugar to get that rare ash color...

Boy the one on the bottom, you must have dipped in the powdered sugar twice....

What a bunch of cute fur balls!

Just updating, I'll try to get better pictures than these but they're so wiggly it's getting harder to get decent photos.

I also want to apologize to those that have tried to contact me and not heard back; we accidently deleted all the voicemail messages. I've been on the road a lot as my stepfather passed away Jan. 10 and my mother lives 3 hours away, (cell phone hell and no internet there). I do have one female and one or two males available. Anyone who I spoke to or left a message and did not hear back, please call me on 540/364-9480.

I tried to pose a really cute photo but they moved too fast....

Great looking pups. Would love anothr pup but the wife would kill me!!! Especially after just getting one despite her protests.

The little burrheads are 4 weeks old and it finally warmed up enough they went outside for their first time.

Leave it to Julie to show us her laundry....


Sorry but not matter how often you wash them Julie, you can't wash off the ash!!!!


It really must be a hoot to watch those pups grow...

Kevin, don't be spillin' all our secrets. Ever since we started letting the dogs sleep in the master bedroom, we started getting all these SilverFreaks, err, ash puppies.

We have a brown female and an ash male puppy available, call or email for information. THey will be ready at the end of this month. 540/364-9480 or reardonjlee@ hotmail . com

That is agreat color Julie!
