X-Tra was about ten weeks old when he was sent by his breeders, Michael and Renee Holth, of Spanaway, WA.  He was, by far, the most difficult puppy I have ever owned!  Fortunately, he has turned very wonderful and handsome guy.

X-Tra was handled to a Best Junior in Futurity win in 1998 and to his breed Championship by Alisa Brotherhood.  It seems that obtaining his AM CH was the easy part.  During our quest for his OTCH, X-Tra made it a special challenge by managing to break his toe - not once -- but twice!  Those darned squirrels!

Although his stud career didn't begin until he was five years old to not interfere with his obedience career, X-Tra is a multi-Champion producer with a few others pointed, some just entering the ring and yet others not of show age.  Without a doubt, X-Tra's favorite activity is making babies.  It's even more fun than obedience!
