Diamond Valley's Sargeant Pepper
|
|
|
|
This is Diamond Valley's Sargeant Pepper. He came from Diamond Valley in California. Thanks to Joe and Pam Quintana for their excellent breeding program. Pepper has some Decker heritage, but I am still figuring the percentage. You can see it in his type. He has excellent conformation and is the sweetest guy I have. He likes to cuddle almost as much as he likes to hunt (and his prey instinct is very well developed.) Pepper was born on April 5, 2003. These pictures were taken when he was almost 4 months old.

Here pepper practices his stack. He has natural ability, but really would rather be doing anything else.

Pepper is licking his chops in anticipation of that rat (actually it was just a tennis ball, but we were working on stay and he really wanted to chase it)

Here are a few pics of Pepper that were taken on November 27, 2003. It is still difficult to photograph him.
