I am thrilled to have won the qualifier round at the Texas Red Setter Club AF Trial with LMD's True Grit 'Beau', a promising young setter full of talent and enthusiasm. Special thanks go out to both Virgil Moore and Ralph Niemeyer for their vital roles in shaping his early development; we can't wait what will come next from these remarkable animals bred by Jim Smith.

Thanks to Kellie Akin for your hard work that made this trial happen.Tremendous thanks to all the scouts, judge’s and to Purina for sponsorship.

In 1975 when the Bonanza TV Series ended...Lorne Greene bought The Buckskin Horse whose real name was Danny, that he and James Arness shared riding in between Studios from 1959-1973.

Lorne kept him until 1979 then he donated Danny to a Therapeutic Riding Center. where the Horse taught mentally and physically challenged children to ride until his passing in 1992 at the age of 45, an unusually long life for a horse. to live.

This is an outstanding litter of Field Trial prospect or Hunting English setter. The sire LMDS's Can't Touch This(Patch) is a first-year Open Shooting Dog. He had an excellent Derby year despite a late start. He won 3 major field trials. The Sunflower Marvin McDowell Classic was a major win for Patch. Patch also won the Southwest Missouri open shooting dog Derby and the Arkansas Derby. Patch placed in another American Field OSD Trial and won an NBHA field trial. He was previously registered as Patch's Prairie Wind. This dog is an excellent bird finder. He has tremendous stamina and ground speed, topped with hard-to-beat STYLE. The Dam is own daughter of Erins's Hidden Shamrock. She has hunted 3 seasons in South Texas and is and fabulous hunting dog, with tremendous bird-finding tools. She has an amazing drive and tolerates the South Texas heat. If you want a fancy bird finder, this is your pup!

"For the last 9-months, my wife, Brooklyn has been pregnant with a very sick baby boy. Three or four months ago, we learned that the baby had severe hydrocephalus. Back in the old days, hydrocephalus was called, 'water on the brain' - too much brain fluid. Ultimately, we were referred to Cincinnati Children's Hospital, where we were told by several of the most highly regarded fetal specialists in the country that his condition was dire. The baby's condition was 'off the charts bad'. It was so extreme that the specialists stopped measuring and monitoring his fluid level because, at that point, it didn't really matter. The MRI's were sickening to look at.
We were told, pointblank, that there was over a 90% chance that the baby would either die shortly after birth or have such severe cognitive impairments that any quality of life would be hard to imagine. We had a meeting with palliative care regarding the use of life sustaining measures and had detailed, awful, and emotional discussions about the ethics of when we might need to remove or cease such measures - which would result in the baby 'passing away peacefully'.
Brooklyn relocated to Cincinnati and lived in a hotel close to the hospital - in case she went into labor. I commuted back and forth. On July 8th, Brooklyn did indeed go into labor. Literally, 15 minutes before they wheeled her back to start the C-section, we had another meeting with doctors regarding the use of a breathing tube and at what point we might need to remove that tube and let the baby go to Heaven. Guess what? The baby came out crying - which was the sweetest sound I ever heard.
In a nutshell, Charlie Schnarr stayed in infant intensive care until yesterday - when we all came home. He seems to be a normal, beautiful baby doing all the things that babies do. He has mild ventricular enlargement, but we can deal with that with checkups.
How did this happen?!
The doctors said, 'We do not have and cannot come up with a medical explanation for what we've witnessed here'. Somehow his brain found a way to naturally clear the blockage or re-route the fluid that was causing the oppressive back up of brain fluid. During the last week, I heard the words, 'divine intervention' and 'miracle' more times than I could count. Nurses with decades of experience and esteemed, nationally admired doctors were flabbergasted but jubilant. Because of the domino effect of friends, family, clients, colleagues and even strangers praying and asking others to pray for us, I do not doubt that there were thousands of people praying for us.
I'm a practical person that certainly believes in science and medical technology, but I absolutely know, from the bottom of my heart, that God was involved in this. I give ALL of the credit and glory to Him. Prayer is positively powerful. God is real, and He still performs miracles."
