Ch Whisperwind's Brenneke Bullet CD
(Hawkhavens Gingers Snapped X Ch Petersfield Irish Rose)
Our first homebred
champion from our first litter. Born a singleton and hampered with a very
novice owner, Bullet was first and foremost a cherished pet and top notch
hunting companion. Finished with 4 majors, several BOBs, and earning his
CD in three straight trials with a novice handler, Bullet had a brief career
as a special, earning multiple BOBs.
As a working dog, he remains unparallelled in our home. He never quit on
a bird, and was known locally as the best pick up dog around, being called
upon to find downed ducks as much as 24 hours after they were shot in our
tough Massachusetts stick ponds. Bullet was even known to dive for submerged
ducks, coming up with them after an underwater search. Bullet died tragically
young of cancer, and was sadly never used at stud, but his legacy lives on
in the get of his full sisters Brier, Brass and Tia.
Its been years since he died, and there is not a day that goes by that we
don't think of him. A portrait of him hangs in in our family room, still
adorned by his show collar that he competed with his whole life. He will
always be remembered fondly and will always hold a special place in our
hearts.
