HOW I GOT
INTERESTED IN SHOWING AND BREEDING
WELL
IT ALL STARTED IN 1994. ONE DAY A FRIEND OF MINE ASK IF I WANTED TO GO TO A
DOG SHOW, OF COURSE I SAID YES. WELL THAT DID IT. I SAW SO MANY DIFFERENT
BREEDS OF DOGS AND ALL OF THEM WERE SO BEAUTIFUL IN THERE OWN WAYS. BUT WHEN I
GOT TO THE RING WHERE THE AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIERS WERE, I FELL IN
LOVE. I SAW THEM AS BEING THE MOST WONDERFUL DOG. ALL WERE LOVING AND VERY
FRIENDLY. THE ONES THAT I WATCHED IN THE RING WERE SO BEAUTIFUL AND
GRACEFUL AND THEY MOVED AS THOUGH THEY WERE SAYING TO EVERYONE " HEY
LOOK AT ME". SO AT THAT MOMENT I KNEW THAT I HAD TO HAVE A DOG LIKE
THAT. I ALSO WAS VERY INTERESTED IN THE SHOWING PART OF IT TOO. SO I DECIDED
TO BUY AN AMSTAFF TO SHOW. THEN THE LONG RESEARCH STARTED. I CALLED MANY
BREEDERS AND FINALLY FOUND THE ONE I WANTED TO PURCHASE A DOG FROM. I
CALLED CIRCLE C KENNELS IN TEXAS AND TOLD THEM I WANTED A SHOW PUPPY, SO
I PURCHASED A BLUE BRINDLE AND WHITE MALE PUPPY. HE WAS SO PRETTY. HE CAME
TO ME AT 10 WEEKS OLD. WE STARTED CONFORMATION CLASSES AT THE AGE OF 3
MONTHS. I NAMED HIM FERRIS MAX-A-MILLION. MAX AND I HAD A LOT OF FUN IN THE
CLASSES. WE STARTED TO GO TO FUN MATCHES AND HE ALWAYS WON AT THEM.
AT THE AGE OF 6 MONTHS WE ENTERED IN THE AKC SHOW. MAX DID WELL HIS
FIRST TIME. WHEN HE WAS 7 MONTHS OLD HE WON A 4 POINT MAJOR. BOY
DID HE KNOW WE DID SOMETHING GOOD. HE GOT ALL EXCIDED WHEN THE JUDGE PICKED
US. HE REALLY LIKES TO SHOW .MAX FINISHED HIS CHAMPIONSHIP AT 19 MONTHS AND
ON HIS FIRST TIME OUT AS A SPECIAL, HE WON THE BREED. DURING THE TIME I WAS
SHOWING MAX I PURCHASED A FEMALE AMSTAFF. I NAMED HER FERRIS BLUE ANGEL. MAX AND
ANGEL HAD A FEW LITTERS AND PRODUCED A FEW CHAMPIONS. IN'T AKC UKC CH
FERRIS BLUE STARR ZIRA, CH FERRIS ANTEE UP MEAGAN OFA AND INT' CH AKC CH
FERRIS BLUE MAX OFA SHOWN BY HIS OWNER LINDA BARNES AND FERRIS LEGENDARY
BILLIE BLUE JEANS CGC TT CD. WHO A IS DOING VERY WELL IN THE OBEDIENCE
COMPETIONS. CH FERRIS ANTEE UP MEAGAN OFA WAS SHOWN BY ME TO FINISH HER
CHAMPIONSHIP AT 18 MONTHS OLD. IN 1995 I ALSO PURCHASED A BEAUTIFUL FEMALE
FROM TARA'S KENNEL IN OHIO. I NAMED HER TARA'S FERRIS WHEEL OF FORTUNE
"VANNA". VANNA WAS SHOWN AT 6 MONTHS AND FINISHED HER CHAMPIONSHIP
AT 20 MONTHS. SHE ALSO WON THE BREED CLASS HER FIRST TIME OUT AS SPECIAL.
VANNA WAS BRED TO MAX-A-MILLION AND PRODUCED FERRIS LOXAHATCHEE REDNECK"
OFA MOOSE". MOOSE WON 2ND PLACE IN HIS CLASSES AT THE 1998
NATIONAL SPECIALTY IN ORLANDO FLORIDA. THERE WERE 10 ENTRIES ON ONE DAY AND 12
THE OTHER. MEAGAN WON THIRD PLACE OUT OF SEVENTEEN ENTRIES AT
THE SAME SHOW. MOOSE WAS BRED TO FERRIS BLUE ANGEL.THEY PRODUCED A FEW
SHOW PUPS .HE WAS ALSO BRED TO CH FERRIS ANTEE UP MEAGAN, THIS IS WHERE
LEXI COMES IN. VANNA ALSO HAS PRODUCED A LITTER BRED TO CH BARBARIANS THE
HITMAN OFA "SPIKE" OF SUNSEA AMSTAFFS. CH FERRIS LIL' GINGER
SNAP, WAS THE GIRL I KEPT FROM THAT LITTER, AND FROM THERE WE NOW HAVE MORE
CHAMPIONS. WELL THIS IS HOW I GOT STARTED INTO THE WORLD OF SHOWING
AND BREEDING AMERICAN STAFFFORDSHIRE TERRIERS. I PLAN ON BREEDING BETTER AND
BETTER AND HOPE TO HAVE MANY MORE PUPS JOIN IN THE WORLD OF DOG
SHOWING AND TO BE LOVING FAMILY MEMBERS.
