Essie
Essie was the bitch I had in my mind’s eye when I bred her mother - she was what I wanted for my next step forward in breeding. Essie was a lovely combination of the type, substance, and headpiece her Banstock side of her pedigree brought blended with the well known movement and toplines inherited from Kingslynne. Above all else, she was the best of many years of careful consideration for properly tempered dogs and was truly fearless, yet docile.
Essie enjoyed a short show career and because she was kept for the whelping box, that was placed as a higher priority than the show ring. She was a happy girl, eager to please and earned one leg on her rally title at the 2008 National having never attended at formal training class -- she just “understood” what a dog was supposed to do! Essie was just shy of 24” but a substantial 115 pounds. She was short backed, nearly square, and a lovely honey fawn.
Essie graced me with a beautiful litter of twelve puppies out of her only breeding to Ch Kingslynne A’Dell’s Stacked Deck. Unfortunately, due to complications several weeks after the birth of her pups, Essie’s life was cut short.
She left me with twelve beautiful babies and while I was grateful for the legacy she left, it was painful to let go of this dog that held my heart from the moment she arrived in this world. Essie was A’Dell’s Essentially True -- she was all that was good and just in the dog world. She was tender, intuitive and beautiful. She left me with 12 priceless pieces of one of the most captivating dogs I have ever had. She was not perfect but she was absolutely perfect to me.
