I have a beautiful bloodhound sculpture made by the amazing Madeleine Park, in 1934 that I am trying to find the pedigree of, and or learn if the bloodline still exists for, the Ch. Trojan of Wildoaks who was owned by Richard Bondy Jr out of New York. The family has been raising dogs, breeding them and caring for them for nearly 80 years. The tradition started in the early 1920's with the birth of the Wildoaks Kennel in Goldens Bridge, New York.

Trojan passed at 9 months, and while Mr, Bondy decided bloodhounds was his thing, his mother (Bessie) was quite a prominent woman.
"A founding member of the Wire fox terrier club member of the WFTCCS Hall of Fame bred over 50 champion Wire Fox Terriers. Her dogs competed all over the world from the United States and England, to France and even Japan."
(This information is available at bondypetproducts.com)

"Bessie's sons Philip and Richard bucked the terrier tradition by breeding and raising Bloodhounds. Much like Bessie's terriers, the Bondy Bloodhounds proved successful in the ring. One of the dogs, Trojan, won "Best English Bloodhound" at the Westminster Kennel Club show in 1933"

I am curious if there is anyone interested in this piece also. 🤔

Therapy dogs, before it was a thing. ❤️

Therapy dogs, before it was a thing. ❤️

Once upon a time, in the small town of Willowville, lived an extraordinary duo - old man Timothy and his faithful companion, Rex. Now, old man Timothy was no ordinary doctor. He was known throughout the town as the wisest and most caring physician, with a heart as big as the love he had for his patients.

Rex, on the other hand, was no ordinary dog. He was an XL Pitbull with a heart just as large as his size. With his sleek black coat and gentle eyes, Rex had a calming presence that seemed to put everyone at ease. Legend had it that he possessed a magical touch that could heal even the most broken of spirits.

One fateful day, as the sun painted the sky with hues of gold, a local photographer named Emily stumbled upon the doctor's office. Intrigued by the rumors about Rex, she decided to capture their bond in a photograph that would forever etch their story into the town's history.

As Emily entered the dimly lit waiting room, she was greeted by a sight that took her breath away. There, seated amidst a bustling crowd of patients, was Rex himself, his massive frame squeezed into an armchair, patiently observing the room with a wise gaze.

Old man Timothy emerged from his office, his spectacles perched on his nose, and a warm smile spread across his face. "Ah, Miss Emily, welcome to my humble abode," he greeted her, extending a hand in welcome.

Emily marveled at the peculiar scene before her. Patients of all ages, from the youngest children to the oldest grandmothers, sat contentedly beside Rex, petting him softly as they awaited their turn to see the beloved doctor.

"What brings Rex here, old man Timothy?" Emily inquired, her camera at the ready.

The wise doctor chuckled, his eyes twinkling with delight. "You see, my dear, Rex possesses an extraordinary gift. His presence alone brings comfort and solace to those in need. He has an uncanny ability to sense pain and fear, and his gentle nature soothes even the most troubled souls. So, I thought, why not have him here, by my side, to offer his healing magic to those who seek it?"

Emily was captivated by the doctor's words and began to snap photographs, capturing the essence of their unique companionship. The room filled with laughter and joy as Rex's tail wagged vigorously, spreading happiness like a contagious wave.

Word of old man Timothy and Rex's heartwarming bond spread like wildfire throughout Willowville. Patients came from far and wide, not only seeking the doctor's expertise but also the comforting presence of his furry companion.

As years passed, the photograph Emily took that day became an iconic symbol of compassion and healing, reminding the townsfolk of the magic that can be found in the unlikeliest of friendships.

And so, the legend of old man Timothy and Rex, the gentle giant, lived on, inspiring generations to believe in the power of love, kindness, and the extraordinary bond between man and beast.
