CH Foxfyre Spirit of Sprite "Sprite"
Sprite finished undefeated in five shows, all majors including WB and BOW at the National. Paul says Sprite is the second greatest Cardigan he's ever seen! Sprite's Story: A friend of ours, Mrs. Marge Ricardi, had a Caesar granddaughter and we recommended she be bred to a Caesar and Pookie son Called Ch. Twinroc Wam-Bam-Thank You-Ma'm! Before the litter was born, I promised the pick puppy to Monty and Robin Phillips a young couple who wanted the best puppy. The night Doris drove to the Philadelphia Airport she arrived back home with that pick-pup at about 3 in the morning. All I remember is being awakened by screaming and yelling with Doris accusing me of promising the best puppy she had ever seen. She was right. I had made a serious error. That puppy was Spirit of Sprite. In only one week, she went to a whole week of 5 point majors including the National and she won every single one. Finished in one week - all 5 pointers: the Best in Sweeps and Best of winners at the National. This sadly was the bitch that Pookie de-eared (only half) in an effort to cut the competition. Ear or no ear, Sprite was spectacular. IMO the second greatest Cardigan I ever saw or handled. Oh, who was the first? Without doubt my answer---Ch. Pendragon Line Leader.. Paul Slaboda Twinroc Cardigans since 1968 |
