DUAL & AMATUER FIELD CHAMPION!!!
Fox
was a once in a lifetime dog! He
defined
Desire, Intensity, Range, and Style.
His good looks have both proven
themselves
in the show ring as well as the field.
Out of our first two Dual Champions,
Fox continues the tradition as a
third generation Dual Champion.
As a
puppy Fox was a top ten VCA derby
dog. He either took blue ribbons or
nothing. An absolute clown in the
field, he was fun to run every time.
Fox's
most exciting trait is his run.
Paul
Rothan can be given credit for teaching
fox to love running. At an early
age
Paul ran Fox off an ATV for hours
on end. Eventually this turned
into
the running style he has
exhibited. Fox defined "If
you can't RUN
with the BIG
DOGS... Stay Home." (i.e. let
him go, grab a 4x4 and start the
chase.)
But,
Fox isn't all run and no fun. Fox
loved Shirley Rothan, and in turn
Shirley spoiled him rotten. Before
eating, Fox must give you a kiss
or he won't eat.
Fox
easily finished his field & amaruer
field championship. Along with taking
a
4th place at the 2001-VCA National
Field Championship. At the 2002
VCA nationals in Arizona Fox reached
the interstate, forceing a change
in
the course layout.
Prior to that they said the interstate
was too far away and would never
be a problem...WRONG!!!! The next
stake (NAFC), Fox ran even bigger
than in the NFC but was never out
of sight for more than a minute.
I'll never forget when the judge
told me Fox was a nice dog, but just
toooooooo much for a national event.
We were never happier with Fox than
we were that day.
Upon
finishing his field championship
the Rothan's
and Keeton's focused on finishing
his show career, needing just two
majors. Together with Ann Keil,
Fox
took a 5 pt major at Echo Hills,
and finished with a 3 pt Major
at Medina.
Fox
passed away November 28th 2005. Fox
will always hold a special place
in our hearts since he was always
considered as one of those "too much
dogs."
Fox
was owned by Dr. Paul & Shirley
Rothan and frozen seman
is
available to approved bitches.

was bred to multiple bitches,
producing great looking litters.
Like his father and his grandfather,
Fox
reproduces himself in his get.
