Frankie grew up very well, and it soon became apparent
that he was going to do
a lot of winning. Indeed he did, and finished
in grand style -- 4 majors including 2 specialty wins,
and with
big accomplishments at the ABC Summer and National specialties along
the way.
He also won Best in the ABC Western Futurity show in February
2003.
In the field, Frankie started with a stylish scent
point the first day I had him
out, finished his JH easily, and placed
three times in Derby field trial stakes. He points
with style and
intensity, loves to retrieve from land or water, and runs with increasing
speed and range while being eager to please and easy to handle.
Frankie spent the summer of 2004 back in Minnesota
being specialed a bit by Dawn, where he won
several Bests of Breed
and a Group First. 10 year old Jacob Droel showed Frankie in Junior
Showmanship,
and together they won 3 out of 4 times in the ring,
advancing Jacob to the Open Junior class.
Kids are Frankie's favorite
people!
