What’s in a name – On May 20, 1927, Charles Lindbergh strapped into his famous airplane, “The Spirit of St. Louis,” and took off on the first ever non-stop flight from New York to Paris.

What’s in a name – Toni was in a blues and jazz mood when this litter was born so it became our theme. After a quick search of the top jazz songs, it couldn’t be more obvious to choose “Chasin’ the Bird”. This song (and album) was created by Charlie Parker, a saxophonist known for his fast tempos, virtuosic technique, and improvisation. And that’s how …

What’s in a name – Prada came to us from Judy Chambers at Ghoststone Labradors. The litter theme was “fashion” as the sire and dam were CH Hyspire Ghoststone’s Dressed to Impress (“Armani”) and CH Ghoststone’s Hollywood Blonde (“Holly”).

What’s in a name – Our litter theme for the Molly/Zeus litter was “luck” because we were so lucky to get Molly from Brillhill Labradors. Over time the theme migrated to more of a Las Vegas theme. Chloe actually has …
