DOB: February 22, 2004            

"Joe"   was the runt out of a litter of 11, but as you can see, he turned out to be a handsome young man, weighing in at 80 lbs. at 17 months. I had not intended on keeping Joe, but he wormed his way into my heart. He is as his name implies, a true gentleman, even as a young dog. He tries extremely hard to please and is very calm natured, yet loves to retrieve. His sire is a son of my beloved GMHR Southland Leroy Brown, GMHR, HRCH Southland Bonnie Blue Belle, MH, one of the only tri-titled hunt test dogs in the country. His dam is Clubmead’s Fine China whose heritage stems from such well known dogs as NAFC-CNAFC-FC Ebonstar Lean Mack and FC-AFC Candlewood’s M.D. Houston.

Joe got a late start in his training, but with attention and skill he has become a well-balanced hunting dog and attained his UKC Hunting Retriever title at two years of age. Joe is a strong addition to Southland Kennel’s breeding program and we look forward to his continuing his grandsire’s legacy.
