"Patrick" is a medium sized compact male with very true type. He has a magnificent head, good substance all around. He was featured on the cover of the national oes club magazine as a puppy. The lovely expression on a wonderful head is the attraction in the cover photo. He is owned by Diane and Chandler Ellis and was shown to his championship by Diane. His fluid movement and balance are added in to a picture perfect type. This is a male to breed to, as everything about him is true.
"DANNY" was a very special pup, in that he brought a very special person into our lives. Diane Ellis had lost a dear male OES. I called and told her I had a pup she might want to look at. Thinking she would come take a look and then go home and give him some consideration, I was so pleasantly surprised when she fell in love and took him home that night. That's when Diane took an interest in the show aspect. She took handling classes with Danny and soon was ready to show. Danny was a wonderful dog to learn on. He had a demeanor that never faltered and was true in every aspect of his conformation. Diane finished her first champion, Danny, and never looked back. Since Danny, Diane has continued showing and has finished two more MerriMac dogs and one of another line. We're so proud of her and soon she'll be breeding the first litter of her own line, Celtic Cross. We thank you, Danny. You were the perfect boy at the perfect time.
"JAMIE" is a male with great spirit and was a wonderful show dog - he loved the ring. He won Best in Sweeps at the Portland Specialty and then won Best of Breed at the same Specialty. He has great balance and a lovely head and fabulous movement. This dog was always a thrill to watch show his stuff. A littermate to "Patrick", he shares the beautiful headpiece and type of his brother. Owned by Miriam Hubbard of Yakima, "Jamie" is a happy, retired boy.
"ROBBER" pictured here with his two sons 'Iko" and "Hastings" is our great playdog. With incredible agility, he has been our athlete who begs for the soccer ball to be thrown so he can run, jump high in the air and catch. He has lived for this game all his life. Now at ten we make the game a little more suited to his age and his ability. He sired 2 litters for us with tremendous results and we cherish every day he's with us. He's a decent sized dog with wonderful head, expression, bone, angles, topline, bite and proportion. We couldn't have asked more of him. Also, he's Daddy's favorite. Don't tell the others.
"HASTINGS" is a big handsome boy and is being shown at this time. He's a joy to move with around the ring as he has great angles to allow for tremendous reach and drive. His head is large with great width and flatness of back scull and width of muzzle. Hastings has substance in body and bone - a masculine male. All this and he's so-o-o-o sweet.
