At this point in time, both the top winning curly coated dog and top winning curly coated bitch of all time, 8 of the 10 National specialty BISS winners, and two of the 3 MH curlies go back to one or both of my foundation studs--Banworth Ivurried, WC and/or CH. Pentar Flynne.

Kind of amazing, isn't it, that Ivor and Michael sired, between them, just 6 litters!!!!!

Ivor was bred to Ch. Fireball of Halryn, Windpatch Baron's Cleopatra (both litters bred by Dale Detweiler of Windpatch) and to Ch. Wimberway Curly Baybelle, ROMX (bred by myself). Michael was bred to Ch. Summerwind's Ithaca (litter bred by Doris Hodges), Ch. Windpatch Fivor Newsworthy (litter bred by myself--Newsworthy was Ivor's daughter) and Ch. Ptarmigan Hard Rain Falling (also an Ivor daughter and this was a mismate litter--so I will have to take responsibility ). I don't know who would have won the specialties if Ivor and Michael didn't exist--I'm just rather proud that these great, beloved friends of mine have had such a significant impact on the breed with such very, very limited breeding.

Check back on this website in a few months as we explain why and how TWO dogs had such a great impact on the breed.
And check back to learn how very responsible and very limited breeding by people who love the breed will ALWAYS triumph over people who just try to churn out puppies.
