AFC Jordan Valley Ann

Ann is the first Springer that we ever bred and championed here

at Jordan Valley. Ann earned her championship at the ripe old

age of 17 months and won five trials in that first year of competition.

Ann’s career average in all-age trials is an amazing 1.63 points per

start. She was U.S. National High Point Amateur in 1989 and she was High

Point Dam in the United States in 1996, 1997 and 1998 . Ann was

complete and sound in every area and I swear she was part human.

Ann is heavily influenced by Saighton bloodlines and her great

grandsire on both sides is NFC/NAFC/CNFC Saighton’s Scud. Eight of

her puppies have gone on to become champions and there’s more in

the pipeline. Every dog in my kennel has Ann in their pedigree.

FC/AFC Jordan Valley's Banner

FC/AFC Jordan Valley’s Banner also called Jordan Valley home. To me

the “Perfect Springer”, Banner could do it all, and with style! She

was the result of my first effort to bring Ann and NFC Sunrise Zinger

bloodlines together. Her sire is FC Northernthunder’s Bocephus, a son

of Zinger. Later breedings of Ann to prominent sons of Zinger, namely,

CNFC Northernthunder’s Rupert and NFC KB’s Sir Coach each produced

champions. Banner placed fourth in the U.S. National Amateur in 1997

and averaged 1.62 points per all-age trial started over her five year

career.

Jordan Valley's Diamond Z

Jordan Valley’s Diamond Z is cut from the same cloth as Ann and

Banner and his talent level and temperament is similar. I got a late

start with his training and didn't steady him until the age of five. It

turned out to be too late to get him a championship (although he

has field trial points). The fact that I never gave this dog a fair

shot at achieving a championship will haunt me as I see everyday

what he is capable of. Because of his talent and his close ties to

Ann I am committed to using him as my stud dog. The puppies

coming out of him are proving my instincts right. He is throwing

some really nice ones.
