OFA #RR-3048: Good
"Topper" was born April 1, 1990. He was approximately 27 3/4 inches and 97 pounds. He had a brown nose, red wheaten with a little white on chest, neck and toes. He had beautiful movement from the side or coming and going - nice sweeping, effortless gait.

Topper was in his first point show at ten months old where he was WD/BW/BOB both days. At eleven months, Topper was WD for 4-point major and BOW under breeder-judge Barbara Rupert, went on to the large Louisville circuit where he won a 5-point major
finished in just nine shows at twelve months of age from the Bred-by-Exhibitor Class and was Best of Opposite Sex over a multi-BIS-winning Special. Bumped up as a Special, he won the Breed the next day over a major entry and four other Specials.

At the National Specialty in June 1991,
he was one of only nine Specials out of 100 to make the final cut for Best of Breed, the year prior to the awarding of AOM.  This was only his 14th show; he was by far the youngest and least experienced Special. Topper had a number of impressive Breed wins with some "cuts" in group. He is a RRCUS Medallion winner with BOB at a RRCUS supported show in Dallas, Texas.
