I was born on 7-1-98 in Quebec, Canada.  My first 8 weeks were spent at my grandmother Heather's house, eating, sleeping, and playing with my litter mates.  On a rainy day in August, my mom drove 19 1/2 hours to bring me to my new family.  I met Dad and my new sister, " Rosie."  Guess what? Rosie is a bloodhound too!  I knew I would be very happy in my new home.  When not romping in the woods.  I was busy attending classes and puppy matches.  I will honestly admit though, this was not as much fun as swimming in the river with Rosie, but a trooper I was.  The " big day" arrived, my first dog show in Louisville, Kentucky.  Boy was mom a basket case!  But with my liver and tan good looks and great conformation, I entered the show ring and showed her how it was done.  I took reserve to a 5 point major at 7 months.  From then on it was smooth sailing.

So the next time you are at a dog show, look me up.  I will be the most nutragious bloodhound there!
