Lock Takes His First ASCA Win



Lock takes a Major

Over this past weekend the Iron Rose dogs did well. Lock won winner's dog. He beat his half brother, Doubloon, for the 5 point major. Doubloon got reserve winner's dog out of the 6-9 mo class. He was determined to give his brother a run for his money! Lock then went on to get best of winner's and Best Opposite Sex over several specials. Cha Ching also made her first showing out of the puppy class. She showed awesome on her first outing.

Hereditary Cataract Tests Clear for all 4 Puppies Tested


Because Dodger carries one copy of the Hereditary Cataract gene, we opted to test our four show prospects in order to make the most informed decision on which ones would go to show homes. To our surprise and delight, all four puppies tested came back clear of any mutation.
