Boy, it sure brings back the memories. I do remember the Slay puppies. And,
someone sent me the list of progeny from Dakota from the Futurities, and it was
amazing.
Marie took Slay to her home when we decided he should have a place of his own.
Marie did breed Slay, but always disclosed that he had a bad elbow. I miss
Slay, and Marie as well.
I can't forget Destiny, as she went Select in 82, (number two Select from
Winner's Bitch). I took her in the ring myself, and in front of me was Joan
Fox's great Grand Victrix, and behind me was Dave Rinke with the next year's
Grand Victrix. Can you imagine me in the ring with Dave running behind me.
The dust was so thick that we ran into a fog, and appeared on the other side of
the ring out of the dust. It was sawdust and sand bark. I think it was
supposed to be a horse arena.
Were we ever that young?

Hey Evan.....
You may never have used Dragon-Slayer as a stud dog, but Marie
Bevaqua(other owner) did. I came to So California from Tucson to breed my bitch
to "Slay".......I am sure just about anyone who knew I was doing this remembers
it, because right after I had gotten my bitch bred, I drove home......and was
called as soon as I got home to tell me "Slay" was dead.
my bitch had 2 pups
a sable male that did have DJD and a Black & Tan Female that did not. She had 4
litters and never produced a DJD......I think I kept something from each of her
litters .........and until I stopped breeding dogs , if we went back far enough
"Slay" was in the pedigree..............I know I was not the only one to breed
to "Slay" and often wondered what happened to the other pups.
