Clifford is from our Topbrass One More Trip to Birdland MH30, aka "Maynard" and Thistlerock's Favorite Things MH12, aka "Ria." Maynard and Ria are 100% amateur trained and handled and 100% healthy.

Clifford makes his home in Minnesota year-round. We do not go south for the winter, but train year-round in Minnesota. We hunt South Dakota Pheasants, and this year we will make our first trip to Canada in pursuit of waterfowl. Clifford is loyal, friendly, gregarious, biddable, watery, energetic, and enthusiastic to train. He is a gentle companion in the home and a Certified Therapy Dog and makes regular rounds at the St. Cloud Hospital as part of the Animal Assisted Therapy Program. Clifford's sire and dam are also Certified Therapy Dogs and part of the same therapy program at the hospital.

Just a few notable dogs in this pedigree beyond mom and dad include Grandsire FC Thistle Rocks Red Ike MH QA2 WCX, AFC Emberain Rugby WCX OS FDHF, Burn's Golden Phoenix MH OS *** and FC AFC LaCrosse Max Q Jake JH OS FDHF! In 3 generations there isn't a dog that isn't either at least MH or QAA or OS/OD! This is a pedigree filled with talent!
