Simon is the Sarah and Rio son we had hoped would come along prior to Sarah retiring from our breed program. He is everything we wanted in our next young stud dog. I think he poccesses the best qualities of both Sarah and Rio and I am so proud of how he has matured. He's kind, respectful and shows the good sense his mother gave him! Simon has a prelim OFA hip rating of EXCELLANT, not an easy rating to come by and is free of the genetic faults of HC (hereditary cataracts), MDR1,CEA,PRA-PRCD,and DM. Simon is also red factored. I hope you agree, all in all, the wait was well worth it!
