Archie
Archibald "Triggerman" O'Shea Ledenfer, call name "Archie", is our oldest dog at just over 15 months. He is a Florida dog from Country Chesapeake's. He has been to his first dog show and won a couple of first places in his class. My son has been training him. He has acquired his CGC, COMMUNITY CGC AND HIS URBAN CGC titles. He also has completed his Novice Trick title and will soon have his Intermediate Trick title. He like all of our Chessies has a passionate love of the water and retrieves well with the water dummy. His long legs and intense eyes make him a wonderful for work and companionship.
Since finding out that Archie is a carrier for DM and affected for PRA. We will not be breeding him but will continue his training.
He is a much loved member of the family just not up to breeding standards.
Buck
Reginald "The Knife" O'Shea Ledenfer, call name Buck. I have been training Buck and if I can keep my wind will continue doing so. Buck came from Kentucky. Breed by Sky Pond Chesapeake's. He has a wonderful bloodline and was able to garner three points towards his Championship at his first dog show. He won best of opposite sex two days in a row and is now 9 months old. His speed in water retrieves in nothing short of remarkable and stays focused as if their is nothing else in the world but his retrieve. Buck also has his CGC and Novice Trick titles.
