Lizzie was eyetested in September 2001 - Clear. Her Hip Score is 8. Lizzie was one of a litter of puppies born at the home of Ted and Margaret Harper's Ravenstone Elkhounds using frozen semen from Norway - the first litter of Elkhounds to be born in Britain via AI since the only other successful attempt twenty-four years earlier! Her sire is a Dual Champion belonging to Rolf Frostad. Her dam, Glad Tidings, is a multiple-CC, BEC Best in Show winner. Her litter brother is the handsome Ravenstone Reason to Dance at Oseberg, who has two CCs and has recently sired a nice litter. Lizzie is the dam of one litter, sired by the beautiful Ch. Kestos Quicksilver, from which we kept her big winning son, Raider,, one of the top males of the last few years, and a daughter, Minnie. |
For her part, Lizzie was a slow maturer. We had expected to be able to show her for a long time, but that is no longer an option following surgery to remove a suspicious lump from her nose which left her scarred. She still has a good square outline, tightly curled, high set tail and a lovely clear coat, and these virtues she passed to her son, Raider. She is an interesting and loving companion, especially devoted to Paddy - she likes nothing better than to give him a long,slow wash when he visits. She is Spooky's playmate/boss on our long walks together, and Minnie's playmate at home. She is an avid hunter and would take on any game large or small. |
