Ryan (Born April 29, 2010)
Whipcord Born To Fly NF Pictured at 20 months old Nord Ch Int Ch Aquatikus American Specialty x Cuardach Freedom of Flight Ryan is the newest member of our family. He is a grandson of Scout and is a son of Liberty. I always had a very special place in my heart for Liberty, especially after having her with me until she was 9 1/2 months old as we waited for her to be able to go to her home in England. So when Liberty's owner (Marion Kong) said she was thinking about breeding Liberty, I said I would be interested in a pup. She bred Liberty to William, a wonderful boy and I was really interested in bringing his characteristics back. I went over to England on June 24th to see the litter of 3 girls and 3 boys. They were all wonderful, incredibly outgoing and beautiful. Marion did an incredible job raising the litter. It was a very tough choice as I could have been happy with any of the pups. I wanted a boy and decided on the green boy when he did a fabulous retrieve for me and totally turned on for me while his littermates were playing loudly just on the other side of a fence. It worked out great as the blue boy (now Buzz) was the boy who tugged on Marion's heart strings. I feel very fortunate to have Ryan. Ryan was an amazing pup on the flight from the UK to the US and slept the whole way. When I got him home and he met Jeff, he wagged his tail and he gave him lots of kisses. He has handled the transition beautifully. The other dogs love him and he really loves them. He is also very good with our cats. I'm having a blast with Ryan. He is a real character and he makes me laugh a lot. He is very outgoing, confident and very play motivated. I have done a lot of foundation training with Ryan. He loves to learn and he learns everything so quickly. In addition to his training, I have continued with his socialization. I also think he is very handsome and I'm looking forward to watching him mature. He has a beautiful, thick, dark coat. He has a lovely head, nice angulations, and nice rear and front. He moves beautifully. I have shown him a couple of times in the ring now and he loves it. He has 6 points towards his championship.
