NO LONGER AVAILABLE AS A STUD DOG

Disqualified from showing due to cruciate ligament repair surgery - needed one major to finish.

  MASK   : exceptionally black mask, very black ears.
  EYES   : very dark, almond shaped eyes that are set wide apart.
  TOPLINE: level - croup too steep for my taste - excellent tail set.
  FEET   : not splayed but middle toes roll over (very ugly)
  FRONT  : wide, exceptional brisket, legs set squarely under shoulders
           (no elbowing out)
  PASTERN: weak
  HEAD   : very correct, broad top skull, ears properly set, distinctive stop,
           broad and deep muzzle with very pleasing expression.
  HOCKS  : little long in hock - parallel.
Has produced 3 litters (1 outcross). Very large with heavy bone. Wonderful temperaments and basically correct. Unfortunately, some have his ugly feet, and a couple have cow hocks. Three being shown - two doing very well. Still very young.

Health: has bloated on two occasions (both times stressed because of bitches in heat). Injured his knees - cruciate (anterior) ligament ruptured at 12 1/2 months, the second one three months later. As you probably remember - all this is well documented. Elbows - hair absent but no unsightly calluses (I believe this is genetic).

To me his greatest asset is his temperament. He's a powerfully built dog but does not move with great power. His height is in the body rather than length of leg. (Girth: 47) (Neck: 34) (Foreleg: 13)

Bitch Requirements: sound in mind and body. Correct structure, healthy. Available only to persons who properly care for and carefully screen for proper homes. Not available to commercial breeders.

Will be glad to furnish photo to anyone upon request - not advertised.
