Sire: Riondel Venture to Powerscourt (OptiGen prcd-PRA and FN Normal - Hip Score 3 : 3)

Dam: Sorbrook Blue Ribbon at Powerscourt

Date of Birth: 25/10/01

This super lad embodied all the good qualities of both his parents. As a pup he went to live with Karin Staaf at Kennel Backhill's.

I have been to Sweden a few times to visit Felix and I was very pleased to note that as an adult he had fulfilled the promise he showed as a pup. He has a super temperament, lots of substance, big ribs, good neck and shoulders, he's nicely angulated, superb head and moves like a dream! Well done Felix on your C.C's they are well deserved!

In June 2004 I had the pleasure (and fun!) of showing Felix. He was a true showman and he looked after me very well in the ring!

Felix passed his many qualities onto his children (some of whom I have also met!). We are pleased that Felix has enhanced the Swedish bloodlines and produced some quality offspring and is sire to seven Champions!

When Felix retired from the show ring he went to live with his daughter Ch. Backhill's Katharine Hepburn, and continued to make the occasional appearance with his progeny groups where he held his own in good company.

Felix sadly became unwell in late 2009 and was put to sleep in January 2010. God bless sweet little man xx
