taff in oz 5 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Reminiscing a little today & was wondering if anyone has any information on the above dog. I had the pleasure to dig the dog several times, a real no nonsense type of dog, in find & stay. I believe he was owned or bred by DF, not sure if he went back there or to someone else. Thanks in anticipation for any information Quote Link to post
GOBSHITE 107 Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) The dog is now in the happy hunting grounds. His name was Dunbar. Edited January 15, 2013 by GOBSHITE Quote Link to post
taff in oz 5 Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 How did the dog turn out, did he go onto greater things? Was he used as a stud dog? Quote Link to post
