“Mario” was a beautiful dark red boy with OFA excellent hips, normal elbows and a wide level bite. He was a silly boy at heart but when out in my yard had an intimidating look because of his large head, black mask and penetrating dark eyes. He was 25 .” at the shoulder and moved on a cloud. He produced many beautiful puppies with his color and pigment coming though heavily. Once he went out to be shown with his friend Nikki Parker, he proved to truly be a mum’s boy. He finished his championship that day and proceeded to christen Nikki’s van, I drove to New Jersey to get him immediately. We didn’t part after that. Over the years I’ve owned a few of his get that have lived their lives with me. I can honestly say they were (as their father) sweet as can be. I will always miss them and him,   always.
