This is a picture of Trooper at about 6 weeks old in 2002. His favorite perch was in this window. That habit has continued to date - as his favorite perch at our house is inside our bay window at the front of the house.

Trooper's sire: Ch Glacier's Weather The Storm - left
Trooper's dam: Ch Shadowolf's Glacier Lil Iceberg - right This was a frozen semen litter as Reebok had been sold to another owner in Japan about 8 years prior to this litter being born. We received word that Reebok died shortly after this litter was born.

This is a picture of Trooper at about 3 months old. Still too little to actually play with his new family: Ch Glacier's Third Rock From the Sun (Micah) and Vermar's Lady In Black (Kodi).

On December 14, 2003 Trooper Won Best of Winners while his mother won Best of Opposite Sex at the same dog show. This win officially ended Trooper's quest for an AKC Championship and capped off a year of dog shows. You can tell by the grin on his face that he was having a Great time. He smiled the entire time he was in the ring that day. Now he can stay home for a while and finish growing up. He has provided a lot of fun during his first year with us and we look forward to many more years to come with this very special dog!
