Standing At Stud

Champion Chase's Ashland Joint Venture 

"Vinny"

Fresh Chilled semen available.

Vinny is a gorgeous dark chocolate boy with ample bone, correct coat, great head and an awesome temperament.  He loves water, is an avid retriever and is spoiled rotten!  Never a day goes by that Vinny fails to amuse of with his silly antics and goof-ball nature. If there is such thing as a "comedian dog" then Vinny would fit the bill!

Vinny finished his championship super quick with very limited showing and also has several very nice specialty placements.  

He is already stamping his pups with his wonderful coat and bone.

Please note that some breeders who's dogs otherwise have ACVO eye clearances and/or Optigen testing, sometimes do not wish to pay the additional fees to get a CERF or OFA Optigen Certificate. Therefore, some dogs on this pedigree may have these clearances, but they are not listed in the genetic data base where we obtain our files from. 

Also note that dogs farther back in the pedigree may not have elbow clearances as elbow screening was not available back then. The same can be said for Optigen, only in the recent few years has the PRA DNA test become available for Labradors so older dogs will not show any Optigen test results.

Imported dogs most likely have their certifications done from their Country of origin before coming to the US.
