What a difference some TLC makes! From her new photo I agree she probably has some European ESS background. She's more substantial than most American ESS, and she has TONS of gorgeous ticking which I *love* but most American breeders avoid![]() |

![]() Here's the pair of wonderful Springers I grew-up with (1981-1995). Kodi is the black & white, and Kyle is the liver & white. Since they were "just pets" I didn't shave their necks and ears like they do for shows. Their mom was a combination of show & field dog lines, hence Kodi's delightful freckles Their dad was from show lines, including CH Salilyn's Aristrocrat who won the Sporting Group at the Westminster dog show in 1967. |

re: pedigrees - my mom's family raised springers (in Iowa) during the 1930's & 1940's. There is writing on the back of one of the show springers picture and I can't make it all out, but the name of one was "Linda of Irvinedale by CH Aristocrat of Avondale bred to Man O'War's Mareus (that's the word I can't make out). Wished this was something I had found out about before they passed on!! Anyway, maybe Kodi & Kyle were related to Springerlover's dogs!! How much did Kodi weigh?? He looks big!! |

You can see a partial pedigree on their webpage: Kyle & Kodi's Page It's towards the bottom of the page.... Their lineage was primarily Marjon & Salilyn kennels, but there's also Canarch, Inchidony, Frejax, and Waiterock dogs. When I was a kid, any company who came was subjected to me bringing the Springer book out and pointing out all of the ones our boys were related to*lol* |

Kodi was oversize, 22" at the shoulders. He weighed 55 pounds. Kyle was the ideal 19", but was also pet-quality. Kyle weighed about the same as Kodi because he was stockier. Here they are at 8 weeks old![]() |
