CH SEBASTIANS' TOP OF THE LINE

"GIGGS"

Meet our newest AKC CHAMPION!!!!  Starting at Bryn Mawr with a best of breed at 6 months of age and finishing in Catonsville MD with another BOB at 10 months old.  He also swept the Massachusetts Boston Specialty show in October with 4 point majors both days!  Our true "homebred" boy did all this in just 12 total shows and most of it in the bred by classes.  Giggs is our Toppers grandson and is a result of our trusted "old" line combined with the "San Jo" and "Kennedy" lines.  Our special thanks to RANDIE MARKER who helped me train him properly (she is THE BEST trainer of dogs and people) and also to PATTY SULZBERGER who handled him at some of the bigger shows and did an excellent job!  I would also like to thank all of the wonderful "Boston" people I met at all the shows who gave me renewed faith-- that when you have a GREAT dog--- judges WILL notice.   Their encouragement was much appreciated!  Giggs began his stud career this year and has a beautiful litter on the ground now. His mother DEE DEE has now given us another litter with TWO girls starting to show from that litter.  SANDIE FRIEND has one--as she owns the excellent father " CH San Jo's Keeper of the Peace" and we have the other... our little KIPSIE.

JASPER JET  SB OF WINDY RIDGE

Jasper is our "little" Boston stud.  He weighs 12 lbs soaking wet but is refined and a beautiful brindle.. We feel he is a great addition to our carefully planned line as he can "downsize" puppies born to larger girls... and has already proven this in several select breedings to "Topper" girls.  Jasper belongs to my oldest son and daughter in law and he is their constant companion, in the car, home and at work...he goes with them EVERYWHERE!!!!   His disposition is excellent and he passes this to his puppies.  Jasper found the show ring not to his liking and rather than "push" him , my son decided to retire him from showing and let him have a selective breeding career to the right girls...

CH VON DRAPERS TOP HAT N TUX

Our "Topper" is the pride of our breeding program!   TOPPER is the son of the top Boston in the country two years running (2007 and 2008) --the great CH TUXEDO BOWS...He is "Gigg's" grandfather and we really feel  Giggs got his best qualities from BOTH his grandfathers (the other one is CH SAN JO'S KEEPER OF THE PEACE) in looks and disposition.   Toppers accomplishments are many... He finished at  the age of 9 months and had a pretty good run in the "special" ring.( my goal here is not to "special" all my dogs or to rank them.. but to have a great time showing them to their championships)   He is more or less retired from showing, although I plan to take him and his grandson Giggs out in spring of 2010 and putting them head to head.. see who wins.... just for fun...(showing for me is all about FUN for myself and the dogs) .His pedigree is stellar--he goes to the "Kennedy" line and has NO inbreeding  at all... which makes the line HEALTHY as well as beautiful.   Topper has sired MANY excellent puppies, some who are showing  (and of course winning) and best of all... many who are now treasured, great looking pets for many people..  Toppers best quality is his adorable personality.  He is one of the sweetest, most loving dogs I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.. He never met a person OR a dog he did not like. He spends his days hanging out with his grandson Giggs and showing him the ropes and going with ME anywhere it is that I go... Breedings to him are to approved females only and he may semi retire as his grandson takes over in 2010.

CH PEQUOAG EXCHANGE TO MAR-CREST--ROM

Meet our sweet boy SCOUT!!!   Scout is now 7 years old and going strong.  He is the sire of MANY AKC champions and we are sure crossed with the "TOPPER" girls he will be the sire of many more.

He has a litter on the ground right now (June 2010) and we are expecting another litter from him soon.  Our DEE DEE is also bred to one of SCOUT'S exceptional sons---"KANUCK'S SCOOCH TO MAR-CREST", who is owned by my good friend Lisa Kanuck.  Lisa and I hope to get two great show puppies from this expected litter--as we know it will be an excellent cross..   SCOUT comes to us from Marianne and Jeff Welsh-- of MAR-CREST Bostons and we thank them for allowing this great dog to come and live with us!!!

MAGOO

"Mar-crest's Oblivious Mr. Magoo"

Magoo is on the show circuit now and doing VERY well.  He has several points plus a three point major so far and we hope to finish him byt the end of the year... Magoo is a typical Boston... LOVES to ride in the car and is obsessive about playing bal!
