"MAIN STREET (AKA Trooper) was a once in a lifetime dog.  Wherever we took him, he would attract attention from the pillars of our breed to the man on the street.  As a young puppy he had a incredible hard back, long neck and all those curves.

As a producer, in the short time he had on this earth , he left behind side gait and a working dog attitude.  Although never bred to a coated bitch, he did not produce coats when bred to bitches who had previously produced bad elbows.  Main Street did carry the black factor. 

On the negative side, he could produce a steep croup, a slight roach over the loin and monorchids.  We always liked to see a bitch come to him with a little bit of length in the back, a longer stifle and a higher wither.

In closing, Main Street died at a young age to mesinteric torsion.  This was a huge blow to us as breeders.  We had made such progress in other areas of our breeding program to have something like this happen.  To date we have not found this to be a problem in our breeding program, and pray it will never again rear it's ugly head.

God bless you, Troopie; we miss you dearly."
