As much as we wanted to ...we were unable to go to the Arizona Futurity to watch this young male that we bred be shown and to help double him. BUT.....we got "the call" from his owner a few minutes ago. Mar Haven's Johnny Black ( guess what color he is <G> ) just won Best Opposite Sex in his Futurity under Iza Kabuska in Arizona. This just two weeks after he just won two 4 point majors in one weekend at 12 months of age.....always handled by Bill Basu. Now at 13 months and still learning the ring, he has now won his Futurity!! We are grateful to Johnny's owner... that Johnny owns.... <G>....Hae J. Lee and Sun Lee, for loving this large, black, powerful, long striding, happy, rogue puppy! Johnny is out of our black Grand Victrix AOE Ch. Mar Haven's Black Orchid... ( aka BO ) .and Grand Victor Tazzman's Aregon. Johnny is the third progeny from Bo with majors. Her first two are from her breeding to G.V. Diesel.......one a B/T son in Florida, and a solid black daughter that is SO like her, and a B/T daughter from Cowboy that is pointed. We are definitely grateful for judges that CAN judge a black German Shepherd Dog as it is a real surprise to us how many say they cannot!? Thank You Iza!!
