12-4-18:
Dancer came into heat 12-4-18 so breeding
should happen in mid December to
Christmas. That means the pups should be
ready to go home in early April, perfect
timing for spring pup fun and for being able
to hunt next season! We are excited!
12-8: Dancer is scheduled to fly to Texas
for breeding with Oudi on the 11th.
Gestation is just over two months.
12-11: Dancer flew to TX, all well.
12-14: First breeding to Oudi!
12-17: Breeding complete. We will do an
ultrasound mid January to confirm pregnancy
and estimate pup numbers. The pups are
due mid February.
12-28:
I met Jessica in Idaho (she and Ed drove from TX to
ID to visit relatives), picked up Dancer and headed on
home. Dancer is very happy to be home!
1-15-19:
Ultrasound today shows the presence of pups!
2-3-19: Dancer is getting quite
"fat-&-sassy" already so she should have a
nice sized litter mid-month.
2-15-19, 11AM: Looks like labor is
starting. 1:40PM: 1st pup, it is a
male. 3:10PM: 3 male pups so far.
4:00PM: 3 male and one female. 5:00PM: 4
males and two females. 6:00PM: 5 males
and two females. ---- OK, it looks like
we have 7 pups, 5 males and 2 females.
The pups are doing very well. They will
have their dew claws and tails done Monday AM
as well as a vet health check. After
that we will figure out each person's place in
line... Please be patient. It has
been a long but good day. The pup photos
below are in order of their birth. Pup
theme names will be names of dances in honor
of their mother Dancer.
2-18: Tails and
dew claws done today. Vet
check was good.

Specialty Show and Field
Trial. He is back but
very tired today (3-13).
3-8: Jan was home taking
care of the pups. She
had a sudden death in the
family and had to go to the
funeral. Therefore,
she was not able to take
weights or photos. We
will do the usual weights
and photos on the

understanding.

Warbonnet Summer Wynd Dancer "Dancer"
Whelped:

Edition, MH x CH Warbonnet
Chinook Wynd.
Hips:
OFA GOOD, OFA
#: BS-17373G28F-NOPI.
DNA Profile #: V867214.
Bred by us (Todd & Sari),
Dancer finished her show
championship winter 2016
winning 3 majors in 3 days at
the Portland, OR shows.
She is super at finding,
pointing and fetching
birds!! She is also a
great hiking, fishing, running
and biking companion. As
of Fall, 2017 Dancer is a
Grand Champion.
Dancer is an all-a-round fun
Brittany to be with! She
is very devoted to her humans,
hunts with super intensity,
loves to fetch, pulls me like
a sled dog when I run her on
the bike and is a couch potato
in the house. She is
smart as a whip!

Oudi on point, 2016.
From
Wingra
Brittanys:
By DC Masked Jack
of Diamonds x DC
Almaden's Lone Shadow Dancer
Bred by Sherry Larsen & FG Larsen
& Sara Hellett
DOB: 3/12/12. OFA: BS-16513G24M-VPI
PennHIP: 0.46L and 0.44R
(Reference #912470)
"Oudi came to us from Sherry Larsen
in Clovis, California. He
has a truly effervescent
personality--for Oudi every day is a
great day and his enthusiasm for life
is infectious. His name, which
is pronounced "out-ee", is
for the famous escape artist Harry
Houdini (hOUDIni). On
his first day with us Oudi managed to
escape his x-pen, crate and climb over
two baby gates. It took us awhile to
decide on a name for him, but "Under
Lock and Key" seems to suit him
perfectly. Oudi went to summer camp
with Ed Tillson of Tequila
Kennels in the
summer of 2013 and, fortunately for
us, Ed had the patience and the
expertise to recognize Oudi's
potential. With Ed, Oudi picked up
multiple derby placements and after a
respite at home to finish his show
title, Oudi came on strong in adult
stakes in 2016. He kicked off the fall
with multiple adult placements
in big, competitive
stakes. He finished his DC title with
a 2nd place in the Grand Open
Limited Gun Dog Stake at the Iowa
Brittany Club in 2017. Since then Oudi
has become a strong contender in the
Midwest field trial circuit. He won
the ABC Gun Dog Classic in May of 2018
and completed the year by winning the
2018 Garmin Award,
which recognizes the top Brittany
shooting dog in the country!
In the show ring Oudi won Best Puppy
at his first show which happened to be
the Iowa Brittany Club Specialty. He's
been to the ABC National Specialty
three times and placed in a lovely 6-9
month puppy class in 2012, the open
dog class the following year and the
field trial dog class in 2016. He
finished his show championship in June
of 2014 in twelve shows with three
majors."
Note from
Todd: I saw Oudi win the Open
Gun Dog at our Montana Brittany Club
field trial in August, 2018.
He is pictured on page 12 of the
September '18 edition of the
American Brittany Club magazine
winning the ABC Gun Dog
Classic/Shooting Dog Championship
with 5 finds! That shows me he
is a real Bird Finding
Machine!
