Calling All Spur Seekers (Sam) x Rock Solid's Little Oakley Annie (Oakley) Litter due November 2, 2021

 

Rock Solid’s Little Oakley Annie by Cashman’s Calling All Spur Seekers black and yellow litter expected around November 2, 2021.   Sam is 65 pound athletic male that comes to us by way of the Cashman bloodline.  Sam’s bloodline is filled with legends in the pointing world!   The accomplishments of dogs from this pedigree are too many to list, but there are many GMPR, MH, MHR, and campion dogs on both side of the pedigree.  I’m extremely excited about this pairing. Pups will have the drive, instinct, and natural pointing ability bred deep into them.  They are going to make phenomenal hunters, but even better companions.  The thing I’m most excited about with this breeding is the look! I don’t think you will find a better looking pair of dogs out there.   Oakley and Sam are both excellent on hips, normal on elbows, and normal on eyes. Both parents have had the genetic panel testing for Labradors and pups will be free of genetic issues. Pups will come with a 28 month guarantee on hips, elbows, and eyes.  

Oakley is a 70 pound female out of our Lilly x Ty breeding.  Oakley is a gorgeous black female who has that same great look as her mother.  She is athletic, intelligent, and loves to please.  She has a great muscular build, boxy head, and we get comments on her looks everywhere we go.  You won’t find a better looking female!  She is out of our Lilly x Ty breeding, and that's one that has been as consistent as any breeding we've had over the years and is a great mix of American and British lines.   Her pedigree includes: MPR Holzinger's Riley Rue Bolligner MH, CPR Shoal's Creek Stormin Norman, GMPR Cashzingers Brier Tuck MH, GMPR MPR Riks Risky Raider MH, GMPR Grits of Black Forest SH, CPR Minn Horse and Hunt Club Thor, FC AFC Black Gold's Kate Rascal, Ebonstar Lean Mac, FC AFC Thunderhills Black Splash, and many more.  Oakley has spent plenty of time in the upland field and possesses a ton of natural instinct.  She'll work all day long, is great on the retrieve, and has a never quit mentality.   If I had to narrow down her best trait it would be how "natural" she is in the field. She just scratching the surface of her true protentional, and we're extremely excited to get her out on birds again this fall.   The best part about Oakley is that she is an even better family dog.  She loves life on the farm,  loves going on runs, and loves spending time at her lake house in the summer. 

Sam is a 65 pound male that possesses an amazing look.  He’s that photogenic dog that seems to make the highlight reel every time he’s out in the field.   He’s from an extended line of legendary dogs.   Some notables in his pedigree include:  GMPR Cashman’s the Call me Seeker MH, 4xGMPR Cashman’s Super Trooper, GMPR MHR Rik’s Risky Raider MH (APLA Hall of Fame), CPR Shoal Creek’s Stormin Norman, Holzinger’s Risky Business SH (US Open Champ), GMPR Sauk River’s Featherstorm,  MPR Brewmaster’s Jack, Cashzinger’s Special Brew, and many more!  Sam is a dog that will work all day long, day after day.   He spends most of his falls chasing upland birds and waterfowl. He’s used extensively as a guide dog, and he hunted over 60 days in the upland field last year alone.  He had over 800 birds shot over him in the upland field and on top of that, he spends 14 days on a Canadian waterfowl trip where he has 500-1500 birds shot over him depending on conditions.  If you find that hard to believe give “Upland Inc” a follow on facebook or Instagram and you’ll see the evidence in the pictures.  Sam steady to shot and release,  and has a big, big motor. He’s the type of dog in the upland field that has zero quit!  One of his greatest attributes is his work ethic. It doesn’t matter if he’s training, in the upland field, or hunting waterfowl he’s going to give it 110% no matter what.    He is a great marker, a great retriever, and a great wing man!  He goes everywhere his owner goes and knows how to settle in nice at the end of a long day! Sam possesses many of those great traits that so many people have consistently desired in their future pups. This bloodline is strong, and the consistency of performance, trainability, drive, look, and loyalty will come through in his offspring.   Oakley and Sam are a flawless match and will produce that once in a lifetime dog!

GMPR Cruz x Maggie Breeding Born August 7, 2021

 Maggie meets Cruz breeding born August 7, 2021.  Cruz is a GMPR SH titled male that comes to us by way of Northstar Pointing Labs in Minnesota. Cruz is GMPR Duke’s True Grit son whose lineage goes back to Blackforest bloodlines out of Colorado.  Blackforest (Currently Known and Bearpoint) bloodlines is one of the most prominent bloodlines in the history of pointing labs, and was an integral part of bringing notoriety to the pointing lab back in the mid-90’s.  Simply put, in the pointing world Grits of Black Forest is a legend!  The accomplishments of dogs from this pedigree are too many too list but there are many GMPR, MH, MHR and National Champions on both sides of this breeding! Cruz is a 65-70 pound powerhouse that has that same great look Grits of Black Forest possessed.  His pups possess a strong desire to hunt and have strong natural point. He has hunted extensively on waterfowl and upland, and he lives to hunt and will go strong all day long!  To say that I’m excited about bringing the Blackforest lineage back closer in our line is an understatement.  There aren’t too many opportunities to bring a bloodline like this back, and Mags matches up perfectly with Cruz! Mags and Cruz come with all the health clearances.  Mags is excellent on hips and Cruz is good. Both are clear on eyes, and normal on elbows. Pups will be EIC/CNM clear by parentage and will come with a 28 month health guarantee. 


Mags is 55 pound female out of Remi and Punch.  This has been a breeding that has proven itself time and time again over the years, and I couldn't resist keeping a female out of that pairing. When you think of that dog that has all that drive you want, Mags has it! She is one of the few dogs I know that can match Belle's drive at such a young age!  In her first hunting season (8 months old) she would match all my seasoned dogs step for step in the field, and at times lead the way!  She is hands down one of the fastest and most athletic dogs I have ever been around!  She is a stunning lighter colored female with darker highlights around the eyes, nose, and ears.  I absolutely love her look!  Her pedigree includes:  GMPR MHR Rik's Risky Raider MH,  GMPR Grits of Black Forest SH, GMPR Spioncop Christos Magic Baker SH, GMPR High Sierra Kodiac MH, GMPR PDB Angel's Blackjack Kati, FC AFC Black Gold's Markin Marti, and many more!  She is a great mix of pointing and field trial lines!  Mags is an extremely versatile dog that possesses a great nose, strong natural pointing instinct, and exceptional marking ability.  If I had to pick one trait that sticks out with Maggie it would be her drive!  She is always 3 steps ahead of the competition!   She is an exceptional marker, and has an uncanny knack to see where everything lands and once she does she turns on the burners and no one is going to beat her there!   It's not too often you find a dog that has so much drive, but yet is still a great family dog.  Most days you can find Mags 
hanging out in the back yard with my kids.  My 4 year old daughter will constantly walk her around on and off the leash. Her favorite thing to do is make Mags lie down, lay in the grass next to her and rub her belly!   Maggie definitely has that same "lover mentality" her momma has, and is always looking for attention.  Mags has spent a majority of her time in the upland fields of Iowa and South Dakota. She also has experience as a waterfowl dog and is great in the water.  In the springtime she spends time hiking with me through the woods looking for shed antlers.  She is that dog that you love to have around in every season because she is so versatile, but even more importantly she loves to please no matter what she's doing!  



Cruz is a 65-70 pound male that possesses those same great traits that Grits had!  Some noteables in his pedigree include:  GMPR Duke's True Grit SH, GMPR Grits of Black Forest SH (APLA Hall of Fame), CPR Horse and Hunt Club Thor (APLA Hall of Fame), GMPR Gumbo of Black Forest (APLA Hall of Fame), GMPR Killarney Kate, GMPR Smoking Annie Oakley, GMPR Sir Hershey of Surrey (APLA Hall of Fame), and many more!!! His drive and pedigree are unmatched.  Cruz is a stud that has the "IT" and "WOW" factor.  He is a dog with endless drive and stamina. As a retriever he has all the tools to do anything you want him to. Cruz trains as hard as he hunts and tests. He has a no quit desire to please you that is very special. In the upland he has great search and cover skills that lead to a very solid staunch stylish point. He is used extensively as a guide dog in SD and he rises to every challenge put in front of him. If you are looking to add another gear to your next litter take a hard look at Cruz! Cruz possesses many of those same characteristics listed about Grits, and it’s truly an honor and privilege to have the opportunity to pair Maggie with him!  These two should match up to produce that “once in a lifetime” companion gundog that everyone is looking for!
