It is with very heavy hearts we share the very unexpected passing of Rookie, CH Rolyart’s Ready to Play. Born in 2011, she finished easily as she floated when she moved – a trait she passed on to her kids. Her kids are her legacy, as she has produced some of the most titled dogs in the breed – a testament to her temperament as well as her structure. Some of her kids: GCHB CH MACH RACH Rolyart's Play Time UDX OM1 BN GN RM2 RAE2 MXS MJS OF DN CGC TKA – Reese – owned and loved by Linda Brennan, CH Rolyart's Playing Hooky CD BN RN MHA CGC TKN – Gretchen one of only a handful of Master Hunters in the breed – owned and loved by Frank and Aki Pampush, GCHS Rolyart’s Navigator @ Painted Sky Farms – Captain is Multiple Best in Show winner, Multiple Owner Handler Best in Show winner as well as Owner Handler Best in Show at the prestigious AKC International show – owned and loved by Sharon and David Sherwood. GCH CH Rolyart's Rolls Royce RA TD ACT1 ACT1J SWN SIE SCA TKA – Az who was the first Welsh to earn an NACS NoseWork 3 title – owned and loved by Cyndi Deitrick and John Gee.
Rookie was and exceptional mother, and companion. She lived her retired life with Cindy’ mom as her constant companion. Thanks for everything Rookie - you are sorely missed.
