Am-Can Ch. Wind Dance RC
Ithaca Autumn SDHF, OS "Fella"
We
met Fella for the first time at Richard and Nancy Hawley's beautiful home in
Eagle River, Alaska. It was a warm summer's afternoon. We were all
sitting on the back porch talking about Iris and her sire, Breaker, who also
lived with the Hawleys and Fella. Richard was sitting quietly, but decided
to throw some bumpers for Breaker and Fella to chase. Fella exploded
outward toward the bumper, beating Breaker to the bumper by a full stride.
The balance of beauty, power, and drive in Fella was breathtaking to
observe. Click here for a list of
Fella's wins.
We had been looking for a Golden girl
who would not only be healthy and beautiful, but who would also have that
sporting "drive" that is, to us, the mark of a Golden. Imagine
our surprise when we found that Mariner Kennels was planning to breed Can
CH Mariner Deck the Halls by Tempo to Am Can CH Wind Dance RC Ithaca Autumn,
the very same Fella to whom we had fallen in love with several years before.
In Angel we have found a female
version of Fella; beautiful, independent, and driven.
