About Derby:
We had planned the breeding that produced Derby long before it ever came to be. His mother Ellie is a beautiful cross of English, Swedish and American lines and her father Vegas brings in some of the most winning American and Canadian bloodlines. Derby went to live with our longtime friend Linda Young who has admired Vegas since he was a puppy. He has been shown in conformation by Linda, and the two of them have done a tremendous job together. Derby picked up his first few singles easily in the mid-atlantic area and then in August 2011, Derby picked up back-to-back 5-POINT MAJOR wins at the Canfield, Ohio cluster. He finished his championship by going Winners Dog for a 4-Point Major at Devon (Montgomery Weekend) in October 2011. Derby is a large boy with a fabulous head, correct proportions and a beautiful outline. His movement is absolutely breathtaking, with a clean and correct down and back and a floating sidegait with remarkable reach and drive. He reminds us so much of his sire, Vegas, both in terms of conformation and temperament. We are so proud of how well he has done in such a short amount of time. During the 2012 BTCA National Specialty Weekend in Louisville, KY, Derby received an Award of Merit on Friday, the day preceding the National Specialty and then made it to the final cut in the breed on Saturday at the National Speciatly, all at just 18 months old! In June, 2012, after being shown very limitedly, he picked up his first Best of Breed as a special and went on to take a Terrier Group 3! Linda does a fabulous job with his conditioning and grooming! In 2013, our assistant, Lydia Frey, was signed on to Derby to show him in juniors and also to compete with him in the breed ring. During their "trial weekend" in breed as a team, Derby went Select Dog three of the days of the 2012 BTCA Floating National Specialty weekend in Concord, NC. Together, they have won over some very nice competition and finished Derby's Grand Championship in January, 2013. Derby will be campaigned by Linda, Lydia and Gaby throughout 2013!
