Gracey was out of the Punky and Abe breed the reason I risked my girl the reason I spent a year finding the perfect sire. She was much wanted and I was sad to see her go in Dec 2000. But before that lets back up.
Baby Girl Burgundy was my favorite from the beginning and while I kept an eye on the other bitches in the litter this one stood out and never stopped.

4th born Baby Girl Burgundy 15 oz, small easy birth
Well our fourth pup
came a 11:00 pm, We started with a boy then had a run on girls. This one is so quiet and mellow compared to the noise machines that proceeded her, She ate well and drifted off to sleep as mom still labored on.
There were nine puppies in this litter 6 bitch and 3 dog puppies, we would lose one dog puppy Baby Boy Blue more on his tribute page later.
She is a lovely golden color with sharp black points, my puppies never seem to be born with fading noses or washed out black.
And a beautiful little Lady here she is at 2 weeks old
I have so many pictures of this girl as she was my pick and I had big plans for her to pick up where her mom did not get to go. and while I will add some text to the pictures I am mostly gonna just share her in pictures.
Gracey's first bath 4 weeks old
Grace was the
culmination of nearly four years
work,
the
perfect
blend of show and work pedigrees,
to make
a dog with brains that looks like a million bucks.
We got
it all in Grace.
Though we barely got started knowing her before our world was turned upside down and I needed to find a co/own for her. She was still a baby and in her ugglies when I sent her to Joe Batts Arm Labradors in Holland.
I do remember she had a mellow laid back personality like her mom and I knew because of that she would easily take to a new home a new life with little stress.
Grace right before we shipped her to Holland
All legs and tail, but this little one would leave a big paw print all over in Europe
