Born July 29, 1994, "Broker" was a solid dog and great sire. When a respected breeder & friend of ours, Christy Calkins (Starlite Shelties), called us up saying she absolutely had to find a home for Broker ASAP, we just couldn't pass up the chance. He was a very handsome dog and had a wonderful personality. We have steadily integrated this wonderful dog into our breeding program and he has consistently sired puppies that are much better than himself.
Broker was shown occasionally in Veteran's classes. He was an absolute BLAST to show because he really has the attitude for it! Actually, I think if I were to let go of the leash, he would have shown himself! The "old man" pictures here are of him looking natural, having only had a good bath and brushing, no chalk, no color, no preservatives! ;-) This is a boy who has really held on to his quality, rather than falling apart as he aged...
In the spring of 2006, Broker started rapidly losing weight and went from a healthy, robust 28 lbs down to a very frail 16 lbs in a matter of 3 months. This was despite the fact that he was eating 3 times as much as everyone else in the kennel! In July, the spark went completely from his eyes and we just knew that it was time to let go. On July 26, 2006, we helped him on his journey over the Rainbow Bridge.
