We bred our FC AFC Citori's accept No Substitute, Brook to Shaq a month ago, and she is expecting to whelp April 4. They were both National Finalists, and Shaq has all health clearances that I needed, as does she. Plus he has classic good looks, great temperament and courage. They compete against each other often, and I like what I see in him. His points total speaks for itself.
We have a few spots on the list, if you want to PM me, I would be happy to discuss either dog, thanks, Lynn Moore
Due April 5th, five females and three males on our list.....but not taking deposits yet. We will be soon, as there are a few more people wanting females. Since Shaq just won the Open last weekend, had a lot of calls today. Thank-you for your interest and I want to thank Lainee for doing a beautiful pedigree for me! Lynn Moore
Everything I hear about Shaq is that he is just plain awesome!! I have spoken with Bill and Gay mostly through emails over the last couple years. They seem to be just awesome people and have been very generous with their time in answering my questions. His pups are pretty young so far but, I know of one repeat breeding that took place in which I think had two derby list pups out of the first breeding.
I have a friend with a shooter daughter that I am just begging them to breed to Shaq. Don't know know if it will happen or not. I also have a female that if she turns out how I hope she will, she will get bred to Shaq in a couple years.
Over the last couple years Shaq has been one of the top compteting dogs. And this is with him competing against Carbon, Auggie, Chopper and other great dogs.
If you need their contact info I believe I have email addresses and possibly phone numbers for Bill and Gay. Again, they are great people from my experience with them.
I bred to Shaq last September and the pups are now 4 months old. ALL owners are thrilled with the pups so far. Nice uniform litter.
Interesting to note that we did the first surgical A.I. with Shaq's semen and his post-thaw count was good and we had 7 pups in the litter with a maiden bitch.
We plan on repeating the breeding this fall...Shaq is awesome.
Cheers,
Marcy
Reason I ask, is that a friend is planning on breeding his Master Hunter bitch this spring. He is considering some big name "proven" sires like Fargo II and Code Blue. She has 2 pups sired by Rudy with Derby points, and one with 3 Master passes at 19 months. He has decided that he wants to go a different direction with this breeding. I also suggested Shaq.
The bitch, Dancin' Dreamer Kate-MH, is sired by FC/AFC Dare to Dream, out of my Master Hunter bitch HRCH-Tanks Alot for the Dance-MH (FC/AFC-Stepper x Super Tanker daughter). She is the littermate to FC-Bayou Teche Tex, and full sibling to FC-Butch's Dream Code Of TCR. Both National Qualifiers. She is CNM-CLEAR/EIC-CLEAR/OFA-GOOD/CERF. I think her pedigree (great bitchline) would be awesome with Shaq!!! She is on gooddoginfo but I can't get it to transfer over for some reason.
I've just bred my DB's Cracker of Club Mead ("RITZ") bitch to Shaq and the pups should be here the 1st of May. Shaq is a phenomenal dog and I was fortunate to train with Don Remain & Shaq this winter and see that not only is he an exceptional trial dog, he is a wonderful dog to train. My bitch is well-bred and is the winner of a 60+ Qual in very limited trials and I'm very excited about the pups. If anyone has an interest, please feel free to PM me.
A question for you experienced breeders. I have a nice female whose grandsire was Lean Mac. I have been looking at stud dogs for future breedings and noticed that Shaq's grandsire on the dam's side is Lean Mac. If I were to breed my female to Shaq would that be too much Lean Mac too close?
I just pm'd you Shaq's owners email address. I have emailed both Bill and Gay int he past on several occasions. They were some of the nicest people I have dealt with in the dog games. Very helpful and courtious.. Travis
Log in, click on the "search" tab, check the "dogs" box, put wood river into the containing box, and hit search, will find Shaq in the list that comes up, click on his name and all EE trials that he has run and is entered in to date will come up.
I have some but, am picture posting challenged..... I will have one of you post them for us. I want to email Bill and Gay first to see if they are Ok with me posting them though. I am sure they will be.
I've been looking and waiting for a pup for quite a while. I had a deposit on a Cosmo pup that ended up falling through. Looking around, I'm hearing many positive things about Shaq and am very interested in one of his pups. If anyone has recently bred or plans on breeding soon, please let me know. I'm ready to git in line for a pup.......PM any details or pedigree!
If you haven't already, check the classifieds here on the RTF. There is a nice looking litter in there which is why I brought this thread back for questions about him.
I called and talked to the owner Dale and he took my name and number for a pup. He said he thought all were spoken for but would contact me if he found out otherwise. I just posted hoping someone else would have one available.
The breeding is taking place as I type (Friday 5/23). Kate is a very nice bitch , and throws NICE pups. I am a little biased, she is from a litter out of my bitch HRCH-Tanks Alot For the Dance-MH. KATE IS ALSO A HUNTING MACHINE!!! Her owner, Dale, is a GREAT GUY.
