Jinx's superb temperament makes it a joy to go to dog shows and to have at home.  She is a very loving bitch.....but on her terms!! especially if there is a spare seat on the sofa or a sunny spot in the garden, we (us human's) won't get a look in!

Jinx has once again proved to be a fantastic dam, she is a wonderful mother and we are so proud of her!

Born on the 24th April 2004, Jinx made her debut in the ring at Midland Counties in October 2005 and was placed 2nd in Puppy Bitch, qualifying first time out for Crufts 2006.

Jinx won many Best Puppy's and Hound Puppy Groups 1 & 3.  She then moved up to Post Graduate and being placed 2nd a few times, won at Birmingham National (May 2006) under Jill Peak, which was lovely as we were planning to mate her shortly after.  Her critique read "Stood out in this class, nice head & eye, clean neck & shoulders, good legs, strong feet, good balance, went well".

We mated her to Castor and she became a fantastic dam to a 13 strong litter in August 2006.

We have only lightly shown her since, but had a good 4th place in Limit Bitch at Crufts 2007,2nd in Limit Bitch at Paignton 2007 and 3rd Limit Bitch at Paignton 2008.

Jinx was mated to Veldtkammer Get OfA My Cloud and in December 2008 she became a proud mum to 12 puppies.  We unfortunately lost a puppy at a week old  but the 11 remaining puppies are doing us proud and all left for their new homes in February 2009.  Thank you once again to you all for their wonderful new homes and we hope to see a few in the ring in June 2009!!
