Bayou Magic's Tranquil Seas QA2 "Schooner" is now available for stud. Schooner is a young chocolate factored dog with a bright future. He's a descendant from my chocolate FC AFC Wing Magic's Louisiana Roux MH. Roux sired the all time high point derby dog FC AFC CNAFC FCF Upon the Wings of an Answered Pray "Ammo". His immediate parentage is FC AFC Bayou Teche Perfect Game "Koufaxx" X FC AFC Bayou Magic's Fannie Quigley. Fannie is from a line breeding on Roux, and she is the 2021 Purina High Point Derby Dog. Koufaxx's sire was NFC Fox. Schooner comes from great genetics and has all of his health clearances.

Sookie (AKA Sweetie) earned a 2nd in the Central Arkansas RC trial Qualifying. Schooner was a JAM. Thanks to all club members and workers for holding a great trial. Congrats to all placements and JAMs, especially Charles Cottrell and Ruth with the win. She ran about as clean a trial as a dog can run. Also, big thanks to the judges for all of their hard work. Judging is tough!

Thanks to the judges, workers, and PRTA for putting on a great Q. And congratulations to all who finished, especially those who took color. Those who witnessed the trial, particularly the 4th series, saw some outstanding work. Proud of Schooner for running a very nice trial. The up and coming competition in this crazy game is insane.
