HARRIS ADDITION'S RAIL
GUARD RAIL SPIRIT x ADDITION'S GO IMPULSE
Sam is a combination of two of the most important sire lines in the pointer world today. Guard Rail and Addition's Go Boy have proven themselves as Hall Of Fame members and in both competition and production numbers. Sam was born and raised here at our kennel. Sam was a standout from the start. He and his brother were held back to further evaluate as part of our started dog program. For the next year they amazed us every time we had them out. Our Spirit pups are best known for their nose and bird finding ability, but Sam was taking it to a whole new level. I had never seen a dog that could smell birds so far away even in the extreme heat and with so much intensity. I planted birds in every odd place I could find in the thickest cover trying to stump this dog and no matter what he would always find the bird. Ol Sam would be standing there just shaking on point with his eyes almost glazed over with intensity. Sam turned out to be a natural at backing and retrieving. Owning Sam's sire and dam we felt great about the future and would repeat the breeding next year so we decided to sale him to a gentleman in Arkansas. Shortly after selling him his dam died unexpectly. The new owner spent most of his time wild bird hunting Sam and using him on hunting preserves. Realizing how good Sam was he began to enter him in NSTRA and some timed money hunts. Right away he was placing in the NSTRA events, won a new shot gun and several cash prizes. It took us a while, but fortunately we were able to buy Sam back. He is home now and will never leave again. We are really excited about his future wild bird hunting here in Kansas and producing exceptional bird finding Gun Dogs.
BLACKHAWKS FIDDLIN ADDITION
HOF CH ROCK ACRE BLACKHAWK x ADDITION'S FIDDLIN GIRL
In our opinion one of the best bird dog crosses of all time is Fiddler and Addition Go Boy crossed dogs. These two lines have complimented each other very well throughout history. Many notable dogs such as Go Boy's Shadow, Shadow's Mark, Joe Shadow, Honky Tonk Attitude and Shadows Attitude exemplify this exceptional cross. This particular cross produces dogs that are exceptional bird finders with great style and intensity on their game. These type of dogs are blessed with tons of natural ability, toughness, train super easy and know how to find birds. Gunner was bred here at the kennel and sold to Dwayne Smith of Amarillo, TX. Under Dwayne's guidance Gunner received his early development and showed his tremendous potential as a superior gundog. We would like to think Dwayne of Providence Pointers Kennels for giving us the opportunity to bring Gunner back home and contribute his genetics to our quest to raise superior gundogs. Gunner's sire is Hall of Fame member Rock Acre Blackhawk by a daughter of Addition's Go Boy by a double grandaughter of Fiddlin Rocky Boy. If you look at his pedigree you will find a strong influence of the Fiddler and Additions Go Boy cross. We are excited about the future that Gunner brings to our kennel and look forward to hunting with him this fall in Western Kansas chasing those ole wild birds.
GUARD RAIL'S CRUSADER
HOF CH GUARD RAIL x CALENDENS ELHEW SARAH
Over the years we have been fortunate to be blessed to raise numerous outstanding gundog puppies by Guard Rail Spirit. As you look at our guest book and puppy pages the nice comments and pictures sent in by satisfied bird hunters are to numerous to count, but as the saying goes "every good thing must come to an end". That is the tough thing about bird dogs is that it seems like they come and go so quickly, especially the great ones. Spirit is still with us, but decided we needed to find the next great bird dog to continue our quest to raise oustanding gundogs. We have had an an unbelievable amount of joy hunting Hall of Fame member Guard Rail bred dogs over the years and are committed to keeping those genetics alive for years to come. We are proud to introduce Crusader to our breeding program here at Harris Kennels. Gene Casale and Ross Calloway bred Guard Rail to Ross' champion producing female Caladen's Elhew Sarah. Early on Crusader did not show the potential as a field trial dog but did show the characteristics to make an exceptional wild bird dog. Crusader represents the famous cross between Guard Rail and Elhew dogs. Bob Whele himself wrote about the Guard Rail and Elhew cross as one of his greatest crosses of all time. This cross has produced top notch bird dogs over the years. Crusader is a very large dog that has good conformation, a smooth gait and a superior nose. He is medium range and hunts extremely hard and has the know how to find birds. It is our intent to keep the Guard Rail and Guard Rail Spirit genetics alive by breeding Crusader to oustandig daughters of Spirit, decedents of Addition Go Boy, Fiddler and Elhew dogs.
