Burke
Brickhouse Red Bayfield Burke comes from Altman Labradors at Altman SD. Doug Altman has raised hunting labs for over 20 years. Burke is an extremely intelligent dog with a vibrant (but not hyper) personality. His stamina as a hunter is tireless. He passes on his stand out fox red color to his puppies.
I can provide his pedigree but a puppy got ahold of it and some of the information is missing. I can email you all of the information and his parents pedigrees upon request.
Cash - Retired Foundation sire
Duke’s Johnny Cashew (Cash)
Cash has a laid back temperament that would cause you to think perhaps he is lazy. That is until you grab a ball or a gun. Cash has hunted three times in NAGDA National Finals. He loves to hunt and retrieve. He is also the dog in my house visiting children use for a pillow. A two year old can and often has taken him for a walk on leash. He has visited the nursing home as a pet therapy dog. I get consistent feed back that Cash’s puppies are “the best dog I have ever been around” or “the best hunting dog I have ever owned” or “placed Reserve Champion or even Champion in 4-H confirmation and/or agility” and “placed consistently in dock diving competition.” Several are nursing home and elementary school therapy dogs.
Cash’s hips are OFA certified good. He is EIC clear, PRCD and RD clear, which means his puppies cannot be effect by Exercise Induced Collapse or either of the known forms of inherited blindness.
Cash’s pedigree includes: Duke of ECHO, Grits of Black Forest, Hershey, Call Me Mr. Independence, Shadow Mountain Sage, Aces High, Trumarc’s Zip Code, Minn Horse Hunt Club Thor, Tiana’s Black Forest Mesa, Ms Mischief Magic Marker, and Silverbrook’s Return to Sender.
Cash’s sire, Duke has had over 2000 birds shot over him and was a most requested guide dog on the hunting preserve where he resided. Duke and our Grandson, Weston then 19, were the 2005 winners of the Mike Hatfield Sr. Memorial Hunt, second place winner of the 2005 Colorado Hunting Retriever Championship, and 2004, 2005 and 2006 qualifiers, and NAGDA (North American Gun Dog Association) national championship, open flushing division.
Baney's Lankas Lab Hank (Hank) - Retired
Hank is an 80 pound, lean and muscular fox red lab. Hank is my introduction to producing fox red puppies. Hank is Nebraska bred. His dam is a very, very red female. There are AKC titles in Rally and Agility in her line. Hank’s sire is Lankas Labs Hunting Machine who is out of Master Hunter, Bar None’s Snake River Otter MH and Snake River Delta SH. There are 15 titles in the sire’s line in 4 generations. Names like Gumbo, Rebel without a Cause, Sir Hershey, MsChief and more. Hank is fast and his stamina is phenomenal. At the same time, like all of Whispering Pines stock, he settles to an amazing pet in the house. Hank produces all three colors with shades of yellow from white to deep red, dark chestnut and sometimes liver colored chocolates, and black.
