Dam: Powerscourt Parting Gift

Date of Birth: 16/07/2004

Katie is the sweetest of girls with a very quiet, calm and gentle nature.  Her gentle ways mean that Katie was very serious where showing was concerned and didn't always display her outgoing, happy and exuberant nature as she was too busy concentrating on what she had to do!

Katie made a few show appearances & was well placed in good company, she is now retired from the show ring and is content to stay at home and play with her friends or relax on the sofa.

Katie has matured into a lovely girl with a lovely gentle nature who is very loving and totally devoted to me. 

Katie had her first litter in 2006 (sire of the litter is Powerscourt Paternoster who is litter brother to P. Power Of Love) and proved to be an excellent Mum!  We retained a delightful son who we have called Stan (Powerscourt Pingu).  Stan has developed into a lovely dog and we are pleased he inherited his Mum's charming ways.

Katie has been OptiGen prcd-PRA tested as genetically Normal/Clear meaning she is statistically normal for prcd-PRA and will never develop this disease or pass it to offspring i.e. she is not a carrier of the disease.  Katie has a hip score of 8. Katie also has been tested Clear under the KC/BVA Eye test scheme for CPRA, GPRA & Glaucoma.

Katie has been OptiGen FN tested as Normal which means she doesn't carry the disease and therefore can't pass it on to her offspring.  She is hip scored 4 : 4, total 8.
