Here’s a fancy BIG blue merle, home grown at Canyon Creek, sired by our wonderful Willie and mother is Classy (both retired).  He’s a big boy with a big hair coat and amazing copper points.  This guy has some drive and is super happy with to meet and play with anyone.  Torch loves a good ball chase  and is just a big ole fluffy teddy bear!  He has been siring some awfully nice puppies here in 2024 and we are reminded of how special he is.  We feel lucky to have him and lucky to have recognized that when he was a puppy and kept him here. He is such a GOOD dog.  That perfect amount of playful but still has an “off” switch.   He has produced some fantastic pups in 2024 and the last dog of the season to be bred to him was Mae.  Stay tuned to see if that worked!  We should know around the end of December.  Her first litter (and only litter so far) was with him and they were fantastic.  This is another one of those ‘can they do it again’ planned litters.
