"Ricky in 9 - 12 brindle dog Futurity Class at ABC 2001, Handled by Shawn Clute"

DOB: June 8, 2000

Ricky made his debut in the ring last December 2000 at the age of 6 mos. and one day. Since then, he's been shown on a limited basis, including a trip to the ABC National Championship in May 2001 where he was shown in Futurity & in the 9 - 12 month Brindle Dog Class.

To date, he has won several WD/BOS, WD/BOW, RWD, and many blue ribbons. He is being expertly handled by Bobby Schoenfeld & Carla Hedges, still on a limited basis until he's grown up and matured a bit more.

Ricky has been heart tested clear (Echocardiogram by a cardiologist at Texas A&M University); and has been 24-hr  holter monitored. We're awaiting the results of that. Both his sire & dam are health cleared and listed on www.boxerunderground.com. It is my greatest hope that Ricky join his parents in being listed there once his health testing is complete.

Look for Ricky to be shown on a greater basis after the first of the year (2002). 

In the meantime, he's practicing to be a soccer star just in case his show career doesn't work out.

"Ricky will not available for breeding until he has passed all his health tests. He has had his heart testing (clear of SAS & BCM), however he will not be bred before he completes the rest of his tests, which will be sometime after the age of 2 yrs." - -January 7, 2002 Danette Pierce
