Boondox “C” Litter

I am someone who already had a long life in breeding Show Stock and presenting them at shows. In High School, I showed ponies and there is nothing that teaches you more about what is important in stacking and moving Dachshunds as that average show pony which really shows you what is important and WHY it is important. Seeing that neckset and shoulder set and topline in ponies teaches you what you have to have in showing a great Dachshund. I also showed Chickens and got an innate sense of style watching these chickens growing up and seeing them develop their outline as they matured. Watching these animals got me used to knowing what I wanted and realizing it took awhile to appear even though you knew the parts were in the animal and would be there eventually.

Modern Game Bantam-this Brown-Red pullet is like the one I won the National Specialty with in  1974 and that was quite an honor. She was BV, BB and RBIS.

I got my first Dachshund in 1978 and had a Group One winner and Specialty Best of Breed winner in her first litter, but, due to some health issues, I had to quit that line and went on to breed my first Champion, CH Rose Farms Choo Choo ROMX. Choo Choo was an excellent bitch, very Gera in type, multiple Group winner and Specialty winner. She was an outstanding show dog and one I couldn’t wait to breed. In looking at her, I admired her head and topline and beautiful short hocks and decided that the thing I needed to improve was her shoulder layback and have her neckset being further back on that body. With that improvement, I felt she would be as good as she could and her offspring would really be in contention. In this breeding, I planned to keep several since I was unaware how those things show themselves and wanted to watch as many as possible to see how things develop in these puppies.

CH Moffett’s Georgi ROMX was a Group One and Specialty winner who had that great front I was looking for.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Her first litter was to a Moffett dog and, by that time, I had become a great friend with Russ and Thelma whose dogs had those great fronts and seemed to really produce them in their offspring. I felt that if I got that front, these Smooths would have a great start in the Show Ring. I chose to breed to CH Moffett’s Georgi ROMX who was one of the famous CH Felsheim’s Friendly Jester ROMO/CH Moffett’s Rosanne ROMO offspring whose appearance in the early ’70s really changed the look of Smooths in that era. The Moffett dogs all came down from a Gera bitch whose offspring were bred to many of the Willo-Mar dogs of Marcia Wheeler and CH Crosswynd’s Cracker Jack ROMO, bred by Barbara Lovering. Those breedings really set the type for their dogs and made their fronts what they wanted to produce in every new generation. I was one who wanted to use what they had and gladly bred to their best dogs and really appreciated what their line gave my Boondox dogs.

CH Moffett’s Boondox Crockett just missed having that great front as his shoulders were not so good and his elbows just missed the grade.

CH Boondox Country Pride (Saucy) who had a gorgeous front , but who was never bred in her life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In looking at my bitch, Choo Choo, I felt I had mostly what I wanted to retain, but, from knowing what is needed from the ponies we raised, I wanted a little more layback , a smoother neckset and a withers set further back on the body. I also thought I should keep a few back and see when these changes showed up.  So, in October of 79, she had a nice litter of eight puppies, five males and three females, with Dee Hutchinson, Choo Choo’s co-owner taking a female. Here at Boondox, I kept back two females and three males. Looking at them growing up here and in their new homes, I thought that Chuckie, Country Pride and Cahoots all had the front I wanted. The Moffetts took Crockett who, in my opinion, did not have the front I wanted, but did have what they wanted as he had a great personality and a spectacular body (except for the front!). As a producer, Crockett was bred to CH Moffett’s Miss Flint ROMX who DID have that great front and produced nice dogs and bitches who, when used kept that look of big fronts and great necksets available. Thelma and I had a lot of fun with those puppies and more will be reported about them later.

Boondox Cahoots v Rose Farm also had a nice front, but did not have the topline that I wanted, not as nice as Chuckie’s, in my opinion. I placed him in a show home but he was never bred.

The three dogs that HAD the fronts, that I kept, were Cahoots, Chuckie and Country Pride. As you see, Cahoots had that front, but was one I didn’t keep. I sold him to a show home that did not work out, but he did have a gorgeous outline and I have always liked his picture. CH Boondox Chuckie Bunyan ROMO I sold to Billy Magrum to be his next Special and I showed him at the 1980 DCA where he was Reserve Winners Dog and seemed to catch everyone’s eye. Later, Billy sold him to John Thompson where he became a Top Producer for John and also produced two more DCA winners, CH Choo Choo Sweetheart ROMX and CH Apothecary Black Rosey Rose ROMO who then also became Top Producers and so the line carried on from there. CH Boondox Country Pride also had the look I wanted and she became a Best of Breed winner and, I believe, a Group 1 Winner. She also was not used for breeding but, I believe would have been a great producer herself.

In looking at the qualities that I wanted to take on to my next generation, I wanted to know what was there and what could be passed on. I really wanted that neckset/withers/topline look and wondered how that went to their offspring. I believe that the whole assembly is recessive and that is how it is hard to maintain once you have it in your line. Choo Choo did not have that look I wanted even though her sire was a top Special, CH Karlstadt’s Lionel ROMX, who had a sire who did have the nice front and forechest that I wanted, and her mother, CH Rose Farms Impatiens did have the front I was looking for. She was co-owned by Dee Hutchinson and Judy Anderson and bred by Bobby Fowler, I think (It has been a LONG time!!). I hoped that one of those fronts would come down and be there to go along with that beautiful front that Georgi had. Fortunately, I was right and, as you can see, those fronts did get passed down to the next generation. This breeding taught me that when you breed for a certain thing, be sure to keep that when it appears as that is WHY you did the breeding and that  is what you need to keep your line improving. Don’t do the breeding and then keep one not as good where you wanted to improve the dog. That is wasting a breeding and makes you just stay the same for another generation.Why keep something that you already have unless you already have that perfect dog…and at this time, I was still making improvements and hoped people could tell the difference when I showed them in the Ring. At these first breedings, I wanted that front and I wanted it to be noticeable to anyone watching. Choo Choo looking like a Gera bitch meant, to my mind, that she was a little more refined than the Heying-Teckel and Marienlust ones out there as well. These were the best types around from the years preceding this time and had all the style and type that I needed in my show stock.

On another note, I always let Dee Hutchinson take what she wanted and I always was happy for her to be pleased with the breedings we did together. As for selling the dogs, the owners were responsible for showing them and when they didn’t work out, they were the losers as they still had great dogs to work with. Personally, I rarely let my very best go and decided early on that anything I had to have ,I kept, as I felt I was responsible for anything that stayed here to be finished. I always assumed that if you needed that dog, then you should really keep it. The really good ones, I sold to breeders like Wally and Mary Jones, Lon Strauch and John Brading and Martha Grantham who always came through and finished the dogs and bred them. They were invaluable in helping my line moving forward.
