Kodi’s
style in retrieving is remarkable. His coat has “cleared” to a gunmetal
gray/brown. He weighs about 68 pounds and is 24” at the shoulders.
Kodi is thick in body and chest which makes him a strong swimmer and
upland hunter. He has a strong desire to retrieve. He will often
outrun our Labrador to get the downed game, but he shows an intelligent
and disciplined approach for flushing.
Kodi is the the 5th
poodle to have earned a HRCH (Hunting Retriever Champion) title in UKC.
He also holds an SH (Senior Hunter) title in AKC as well as Poodle Club
of America titles, WC and WCX (Working Certificate and Working
Certificate Excellent). Kodi is preparing for his Master Hunter
competitions.
Kodi’s
temperament is wonderful. He is a very sweet boy. He visits nursing
homes and is gentle with our grandchildren. He loves to be petted. Our
friend said, “You could pet the hair off that dog. He will not move
until you are done petting.”
The
breeding pool for Standard Poodles is small. Kodi’s COI (coefficient of
inbreeding) is very low. (This is a good thing.) All blood testing is
complete.
