Our stud dog, Ch. Cherokee Eagle (Slats) was sired by Cody Sickle's Champion Prestwick Gawain (a National and multiple specialty show Best of Breed and Best in Show winner)...
Our foundation bitch is Encore Schooner Sutton's Bay (Fancy), a half-English import (sired by Canadian & Am. Ch. Wencar Silver Flame) who received major points toward her championship in both Canada and the United States despite limited showings.
Together, Slats and Fancy produced several fine litters of exceptional puppies.
Slats & Fancy & Puppies One of the "puppies" still lives with us---Encore Cherokee Hot-n-Now (Noodles). Despite being shown in a very limited way, she has eleven points and both majors toward her championship. In her first dog show at one year of age, Noodles won Best of Breed at Detroit's Cobo Hall, winning over more than thirty dogs and bitches and champions of both sexes. She is another fine example of the breed.
Encore Cherokee Hot-n-Now(Noodles)
Slats, Fancy and Noodles have produced some very nice litters and all of the puppies have been placed in show/pet homes following extensive interviewing of the perspective owners.
LITTER= On November 29, 1998, we had a "LITTER OF ONE" out of Noodles and a nice young male (Don-El's B. Barnabas) who already has 13 points at the age of fourteen months. (BARNEY RECEIVED A FIVE POINT MAJOR AT THE BULLDOG CLUB OF INDIANA SPECIALTY which had an entry of 150 dogs.)
