Truman
was born on April 16, 1995. He came from a large litter
of mostly females - his only brother lives in Guatemala.
His sisters are all excellent and winning all over the United
States. Truman has been shown only four times with four
Winner's Dog + three majors for ten points including two
Best of Breeds over Specials.
I
felt that a male from this combination would be a superb
stud dog and so decided to keep Truman. If you look at his
pedigree you see that his sire Lucas,
our import from Spain. Lucas
is, without question, one of the top stud dogs I've ever
used. His pedigree includes my all time favorite dog, Ch.
Aslan V. Montecristo, sold to Italy for $50,000, as well
as World Champion Friper and the Int. Ch. Nilo V. Bergherbos
who lives in Finland and has sired some of Europe's top
dogs. Lucas's
little brother won the World Show in Brussels, Belgium in
1995 and Lucas himself won our U.S. National in 1993. A
superb pedigree.
The
dam of Truman is my very special house pet Ch.
Skansen's Russian Roulette, a very Large female who
finished her title very quickly. Roulette
is extremely intelligent, athletic, good-looking, and fun.
She is admired by everyone and is a great friend of mine.
She is of course, the daughter to our other top stud dog
Ch.
Skansen's Quidame - a tall elegant male by our Dutch
import Ch. Sieger V. Bergherbos and my other house pet Macaroni
-who is also very special - both beautiful and full of character.
She won Winners at our national in 1990. On Roulette's damside
you'll see the top winning Giant in the history of the Breed,
Ch.
Skansen's I Have a Dream, as well as the two top stud
dogs Gentleman
Thief and Handsome
Stranger.
We
expect the pups from Truman to be large and athletic, with
excellent heads, shoulders, top lines and movement.
