Pond Hollow Chesapeakes
It is has always been an important part of our breeding decisions that the dogs not only look like correct Chesapeakes but that they retain their working instincts. They are not "just pretty faces".
Our dogs run in AKC Field Trials although we do not specifically breed for FT competitors per se. Yet our breeding has been very successful-2012 the TOP DERBY CBR was bred by myself and Marie Stump.
The dogs have been involved in the AKC Hunt Test program from its inception. At the mid-point of 2013, we have 106 AKC Hunt titles (15 MH/28 SH/63 JH). We have two more currently running and qualifying in Master this year. Hopefully 2013 sees their owners find success achieving their goal.
FIELD TRIAL AND HUNT TEST NEWS ~ 2011 to July 2013
More than just pretty "faces", the past three years our dogs have been especially successful in field competitions. Thank-you so much to the owners of these dogs for taking them to their potential !
