S.LCCH Wellington av Poppyfield. (1997-2002) A big, strong impulsive male, full of energy. His birthweight was 720gr.There were only 2 puppies in this litter and I decides to keep both.
Wellington did well at shows. nine months and 10 days he had 2 CAC. He got 3 more, but lacked the international one for his norwegian title.
At lurecoursing he and his sister set a new standard in Scandinavia, Wellington was an artist in the field. He caught the lure in many differnt ways. He was famous in Sweden when he chased the lure through a big pond and disappeared in the water! On land again he made a leap of a tiger, caught the lure bettween his enormous paws and slid through the mud.
He was the first sighthound in Norway to get a lurecoursing title and the first afghan to be swedish lurecoursing champion.
Tough Guys die young. Wellington was fatally wounded in the european Championship of lurecoursing in Charmes. His impulsive artistry in the field killed him.
I was lucky to get one litter by him, the Constellation litter.
