When I first saw Peepers she was 7 months old and it was love at first site. She could float effortlessly around the ring and yet had the drive and determination to hold a flock of sheep or the perceived “bad guy” where she wanted them.

Like the conformation ring and herding arena, Peepers excelled in the whelping box. Bred first to BIS CH Kaimacha Keystone Caicos, she produced 3 pointed daughters – one with a group 3 over specials. Second litter sired by CH Windwalker’s Yardley, ROM produced CH. Terra Norte’s Heart Strings and his sister Affair O’The Heart. Farrah has 12 points with a 5-point major all from the bred-by class, owner handled. Peeper’s third litter sired by CH DanAnn’s Seiko, marked Terra Norte’s introduction to sables with CH Terra Norte-Windwalker’s Movado, CH Terra Norte-Windwalker Tag Heuer, and CH Windwalker-Terra Norte Festina.

Peepers gave us a grace, spirit and determination that continues to flow through her progeny.

Magic was “Mr. Personality” in the temperament department. When I went to see a litter that Ann Shilling Gray of Vineta, Oklahoma had available, I was shopping for a bitch. We spent the whole day talking dogs, watching puppies and meeting the rest of Ann's dogs. Throughout the day, this black and tan puppy dog followed me around, grabbed my shoestrings and basically laid his claim on me. He had decided that he was coming home to Colorado with me. Once home, my husband said he was a funny looking bitch...... Magic taught me about the conformation world and was my first AKC Champion. 

He was line bred on 4x Select AM/CAN CH Stuttgart Sundance Kid "Bear" and did not carry the coat factor. Magic was a dual titled dog who brought clean movement and sound structure to his puppies. He was an active, thinking dog until his death at age 14 of nature causes.  

CH Terra Norte's Time Traveler, HSs TT HTADIs "Owen" and BriarPatch-Terra Norté's Illusion, HSs CD TT JHD"Caleb" are both Magic sons.
