"Icemeads Mr Copperbottom"
Liver & Gold Standard Coat (Carries the long coat gene)
Hip and elbow scored
Haemophilia "A" clear - DNA profiled
Bow was born June 2006 in the USA and came to the UK in April 2007. He was the first liver import to be registered here in the UK with the Kennel Club.
Since his arrival other breeders have now also successully imported livers into the Country and other liver puppies are already being produced on UK soil.
He has sired 5 litter's to date and produced a number of puppies, both long and standard coats, some of which have gone onto hopefully carry on the colour and one day lead the way to seeing the colour becoming more and more available. Granted he is not to everyones liking. However, we cannot forget that he was imported to reproduce for the pet market and add a little diversity into the breed. His colouring has come up against a lot of criticisim and he's attracted a mixed opinion amoungst other breeders.
As a whole Bow is a wonderful fellow, sweet natured, extremely mellow and a terrific house dog (also likes to dig large holes in the garden). He has proven to be a very accomplished stud dog and is always very eager to get the job done yet still has manners with the ladies. He was recently brought out of retirement and has mated a further two bitches and has more bookings for this year.
He is available at public stud, should any breeder wish to embark on producing liver or even isabella (fawn). However I must insist that visiting bitches are KC registered and hip scored. Pedigree details will also be required.
