September 2006 "Petie" is just a little over 10 years of age, has now been neutered, and is officially retired. While he was the result of an accidental breeding (see below), he has been a very important part of the Winfree Breeding Program. Though Petie only sired a few litters, he left a beautiful legacy to carry on the Winfree name. Pete is the sire of Ch. Winfree’s Chasin’ the Blues "Chase", who was Winners Dog at the ECSCA Regional Specialty; and Winfree Tuson’s Finer Things "China", Petie’s orange and white daughter. His grandchildren coming down from China include Ch. Winfree’s Dixie Chick who was Winners Bitch at American Spaniel Club. Dixie is the sire of two specialty-winning puppies herself. That would be Pete’s great grandkids!! Another daughter of China, Ch Winfree’s Puppet On A String "Puppet", was BOS in Sweepstakes at the Bryn Mawr supported entry in 2002. Puppet’s daughters--Ch. Winfree’s Pullin Stings at Ashbrook and Ch. Winfree’s No Strings Attached--will also be adding their contributions to Petie’s legacy. Petie is also the sire of Ch. Winfree’s Wind Dancer. Banner finished his championship by going Best of Winners at the Maryland Sporting Dog Specialty show in 2004. So, you are entitled to a well-deserved rest, old boy; enjoy your special time on the couch. Your legacy will live on! |

| "Pete" was the product of an accidental breeding.
Both his sire and dam were owned by my doctor's office manager. What a
nice mistake! Pete, to date, has all his singles, one major, and several
Best of Breed wins. He has sired three litters--two out of Tuson's Steppin
Out in Style and one out of Ch. Ashbrook Famous Footsteps. Pete's first litter produced a rainbow of color--two orange roans, one orange and white, one black and white, and a blue roan and tan. We kept two puppies out of this litter. The boy that we kept was Winners Dog at the 1999 Regional Specialty in South Carolina. He is now known as Ch. Winfree's Chasin the Blues ("Chase"). Chase is co-owned and lives with Dyane Winn. (Dyane also owned Am. Can. Ch. Winfree's Wildfire, a puppy out of my first litter.) The bitch that we kept is known at Winfree's Tuson's Finer Things ("China"). China has several points toward her championship. |
