Sire: Powerscourt Higher Echelon (OptiGen prcd-PRA & FN Normal - Hip Score A : A)

Dam: Sorbrook Blue Ribbon at Powerscourt

Date of Birth: 20/09/02

Louis has many of the qualities of his lovely parents. He has a kind, gentle and loving nature and is very mellow!

Louis had some nice wins in good company; he was nonchalant about showing (and life in general!) but did well when he felt like it! Louis notched up several 1st places at all levels (including 1st place in a large and strong class at The Cocker Club Championship Show) and innumerable Best Puppy and Best of Breed awards and qualified for Crufts several times during his show career.

Louis is a beautifully constructed dog whose qualities were appreciated by many, however his lackadaisical attitude to life (and therefore showing) often meant his sound construction, beautiful head, big ribbed and short coupled body and his correct movement were overlooked and we decided it was time he retired from the show ring.

Louis retired from the show rings in July 2006 and is enjoying a relaxing lifestyle with our friend Barbara. Thank you Louis for being you, you will always be my special boy, love you lots xx.

Louis lines continue at Powerscourt via his great granddaughters Tasha (Powerscourt Phantasia) and Haze (Roqfolly Hazelnut).
