Rita and I - Rita doesn't like having her nails and tail groomed but she tolerates it well.

William and Rita

Rita is the product of an Artificial Insemination between Ch. Hillhaven's Scent Seeker and Prince's Desertdutch Annie.  (Click here to view the process).  Rita is my son William's 4H dog.  She is very biddable with a high desire to please and is an excellent gun dog.  She earned her Junior Hunt Title with an average score of 9.0 in Bird Finding ability, Pointing, Training and Hunting.

We're having a great year with Rita.  She has developed into one of our nicest bird dogs.  She works close, listens better than any dog I have ever owned or trained and has as stylish of a honor as she does on point.  She is simply an awesome bird dog!  Rita has a devotion to my son William that is very difficult to describe.  If I could only find a picture that shows the look she gives him when he's working with her you would see that she would do anything for him.  It is truly remarkable to watch.  William is 17 now and a senior in high school.  Like normal seniors he hasn't been taking his 4H responsibilities as seriously as he should be [albeit I have him very busy with college prep classes this summer!]  He shows up for 4H practice typically late, with out half the equipment he needs and he has never worked with Rita nearly as diligently as any of the other kids yet Rita performs often new tasks perfectly for him.  The other kids just groan when they watch Rita not only flawlessly do something but with that look in her eye of total love and devotion for William. 

William and Rita have been over all Obedience Champions for the past three years.
