CYJ, I agree with you 100%. It's is some good old school foundation blood. More importantly, there are some very nice dogs up close. Hailstone is a proven producer of great dogs especially when bred to the Tonka-Red Baron blood which is very similar to the Red Rock stuff. (look up dogs off of Hailstone x Conswella). Tupark himself was 1 of 3 in his litter. His sister proved to be cold and his brother I lost track of as GH sold him after I passed him along to him for stud payment. Tupark was what I call a more laid back, "typical" Hailstone dog. Typical Hailstone dog is a dog that is ON THE FREAKIN GO ALL DAMN DAY!. Pain in the ass in a lot of ways to be honest and that high pitched annoying bark, if that's what you want to call it. Tupark is a Henry throwback with his appearance and abilities.

Tupelo is very typical of her line as of late. She can close a deal. She's red with a black nose just like Charlie, Jack, Hombre, etc. of this line. She carries more Red Rock influence than the LG stuff on her bottom side, but I don't see the LG stuff doing anything but ADDING to what is already a very good gene pool.

You put it very well with your Texas Tea Blend. That's exactly what this is and that is exactly the direction I'm committed to at this time.
