Ollie came to us from Kathy and Danny Branson. We were looking for a good bred, good genetics, and fully tested male, and we found this with Ollie, and a few bonus's..... Ollie has a wonderful personality, and just a silly and goofy way of presenting himself. When we raised horses, we tried our best to hang on to the older proven lines, and so we feel the same way with our dogs. The older lines are what brought us to where we are today in this breed, and why not try to preserve and bring back that great foundation. Ollie has produced two really large nice litters with two of our girl's, and keeping a red female was one of the best ideas we have had in a while. So we hope to be able to cross him on a few more of our girls in the future. So far we are pleased with is over all charm!!
