Hank is a large, handsome dog, with very light coloring and a proportionate build. As a puppy he was very loveable, with a faultless and comical personality, and was buddies with everybody. Hank had a good nose, loved birds, and had a stylish, patient point. He did great on his first hunt with the Rocks and is doing well living and hunting locally with his new family.

Josie

JosieJosie is a stunning bitch, with abundant ticking and feathering. Her build is larger and she is put together very nicely. As a pup, Josie was a sweetheart, whose temperament was more than agreeable. This pup was always bound to excel in the field. She showed excellent point form at six weeks old. She was extremely birdy as a puppy, but she left RLS before the Rocks got the chance to take her out in the field. Josie has been very successful in the field, impressing several seasoned upland hunters. Josie was said to be "incomparable" to the Llewellins hunting alongside her by someone who wasn't even her owner!

Sophie

Sophie, camping out on her annual trip to Death Valley.Bondhu's Petite Sophia is a cute, little bitch with medium feathering and ticking. During her time at RLS, she was an absolute love and had an endearing personality. With the Rocks, she went on four to five hunts, from four to five months of age, and did great. She was more of an independent hunter but consistently honored the other dogs’ points. Her own points were the steadiest of all the pups’, yet she kept her intenseness and form. Sophie also has an awesome nose. On her first hunt with the new owner, at six months of age, she pointed and retrieved a rooster pheasant, and on a following duck hunt, when she was just tagging along, she retrieved a duck from a pond! This girl has had lots of success with her training and hunting with her wonderful family, who enjoy her at home, in the field, and in all their outtings.

Elsie

Elsie was an adorable puppy and has turned out to be a very pretty Llewellin bitch. She is Elsieof medium build, with moderately thick feathering and symmetrical markings; her face has the classical English form. Elsie maintains a very intense point with superb form. She had a sweet temperament and enjoyed spending time in the house almost as much as hunting in the field. The Rocks were pleased to hear that Elsie was taken to the field, at about four months (at a younger age than her new owners had been used to taking out their lab hunters), and was successful with a couple points and retrieves. At two years old, Elsie is now the birdiest dog her owner has ever owned and just completed another great hunting season in 2006.

Toby (RD206MTr)

Haye's Toby in Training Fall 2006"Rocks Tobyhanna Bondhu" is a large white, black, and tan ticked male, built very much like his sire. Toby was a very personable pup that loved to be with people, play, & cuddle. He is doing great with his new owners, Glen and Barb Hayes, who enjoy his fun personality and natural hunting instincts! In Fall 2006 Toby spent several months being worked with a gun dog trainer who was quite impressed by him. By eight months old, his owner had bagged all of the available species of birds over Toby's points. He'd even made his first water retrieve! The Rocks were updated in November 2007, with news that 60 pheasant and sharptails had been shot over Toby's points and that he was second best to none, in finding birds or holding points, of the various dogs with whom he'd been afield. Breeders, trainer, and owners are happy with all of the progress this guy continues to make in the field. Toby will make a first class gun dog.

Rudy (RD206MTy)

Superior Llew! Rudy has a sweet, lap-dog, quiet personality but still loves to play and is very agile. Confident and independent in that he often explores on Toby Pointing at 12 weekshis own and investigates new, intimidating objects. Rudy is a social, personable, and sensitive guy and was definitely the pup that the Rocks had the hardest time giving up. At eleven weeks, his point form was perfect! His Intense, steady, focused points are complete with ruler-straight tail and lifted leg. Rudy went on several hunts during his first season of Fall 2006 and performed with lots of impressive, natural talent. He has an incredible nose and has hunted, pointed, and retrieved pheasant and quail, with cover making little difference. It was said that his work on quail in a thick creek bottom a couple of weeks ago might have made a Lab look bad! Rudy's family is very happy him, the almost-faultless dog, and "has no reason but to expect even more good things in the future."

Drake (RD206MSy)

This guy is a handsome chestnut belton, with a large build similar to his sire's. Drake was a sweet pup that loved attention. He was easy-going, J. Biddlecomb's Drake on his First Pheasant Hunt in Late 2006.observant, and liked to play and snuggle with people. Drake was lower on the dominance scale in this litter but didn't like to be bullied. He loved working with the wings and had nice points at a young age. He had a great personality that is now being appreciated by the Biddlecomb family. Drake has had an outstanding first hunting season on quail that was full of improvements and success. While his retrieving needed work in the beginning of the season and some covey were bumped, his owner said he had many great points that were rock solid. By the end of the season, Drake had a nose that could scent quail at 30+ yards with a hunting ability that continued to impress his owner. Off the field, Drake has made a great family dog that was easy to train as he is smart and quick to learn. Great expectations are in store for this guy.

Abigail (RD206FAl)

Miss Abigail at 11 1/2 months.Abigail is a petite, pretty, chestnut belton female with an endearing personaility. She was a real sweetheart, as she loved to snuggle and give puppy kisses. Abby was very playful and confident and was the least dominant of the females. Although she, too, had great potential for the hunting field, she is now a companion that will divide her time between Alaska and New York. She will however be worked with like a bird dog and spends several hours a day working the Alaskan wilderness. The Rocks were pleased to hear from Abby's owner that she is "quite a dog" and his bud. She apparently has mastered a hilarious dog grin and greets everyone that she meets with it.

Waine (RD206MWe)

Waine at six months old.Waine was a sweet guy that enjoyed exploring new places yet still adored and craved attention. He had a medium amount of dominance and was confident and responsive to training because he just wanted to please people. Waine is a gorgeous dog with heavy ticking and feathering; he will be a classy dog to hunt behind. While he was found to need more work in the field during his first hunting season, Waine has a nice point and natural affinity for retrieving. Given a little more experience, he will make a productive all-around bird dog.

There's a saying I recently heard and I thought it quite perfect for the dogs we've bred. It goes like this: "You can't be replaced. You won't be forgotten. And you will make us proud." Very fitting! -Chelsea
