Rip is of the Boots and Lexi Litter. Midnight Rider's Motorcycle Cowboy (Trogg) is Lexi's sire. Trogg is littermate to Boots from the first litter of Zil and Dani. Originally he wasn't planned to stay in my family, but after Lexi died when the puppies were just 3 weeks old after being hit by a car, we decided because of the very strong lineage we needed to keep Rip close. Since the Ayers coowned Lexi with his handler, they decided that they should have Rip. And the funny way things sometimes work out, by the time he was mature enough and we knew he should have a promising show career, Rip and I were a bonded pair. It's hard to separate a bonded pair. In many ways I feel like Zil sent Rip to me.....we did the breeding on March 23, 2020....the same day that Zil died. Rip is so much like Zil in so many ways; always sweet, funny, goofy, protective and always with me when he's home. He's always, always busy.
Where did Rip's registered name come from? The Loup Garou is the Cajun Werewolf.

Rip is the third dog in the ring with Lenny Brown. While it doesn't look like a lot of dogs in the ring, of the first 4 dogs in the ring, they are all in the Top 5 dogs in the country. So it was good competition.
