She remains RiversEdge’s TOP HUNTING DOG
JJ retrieves countless birds as Scott’s greatest hunting partner. He and his buddies call her “The Hunting Machine”. Buddy Tom even bought a new truck with a bench seat in the cab for her so she could ride between he and Scott. I only occasionally get to take her to an AKC conformation show! She is just 5 points shy of her champion title. Her true claim to fame is her outstanding hunting skills.
Nicknames: Rock Star, Mustang Sally, The Jet, The Hunting Machine, and Missy Meister Nobody Nicer!

Jackson (3/19/06-11/12/19)
On November 12, 2019 my heart shattered, as I said goodbye to my best canine friend. Jackson was the foundation stud of RiversEdge, famous in his own right and a beloved family member. He had a long and successful career as a show dog, loved hunting, helped raise puppies and especially loved being my #1 companion and protector. He remains AT STUD for approved bitches with Frozen semen. He produced 9 beautiful, outstanding litters, boasting of of prodigy who have earned AKC CH, GCH show titles, Obedience, Rally, Agility, scent work and Hunt test titles, and hunting partners who have retrieved countless game birds. He is running, jumping and hunting joyfully and freely on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge.
BISS GCH, CH Echo Bay’s Jazzin RiversEdge, RN, JH
(12/6/04-11/2017)
Jazz was a truly remarkable girl who was the foundation bitch of RiversEdge Chesapeakes. She holds a huge piece of my heart and there will never be another Jazz. She truly loved being a show dog and owned the ring. While obedient, she hated obedience trials because they were boring, yet was an amazing performer in dock dog events. She won Best of Breed in the Chesapeake Regional Specialty as a Veteran as well as Best Veteran in the American Chesapeake National Specialty in 2016. Jazz earned an award of merit in the 2015 regional Chesapeake specialty as a 10yr Veteran as well as earning her NADD-AKC Diving Dog title, Junior division, with qualification to attend the Eukanuba National Diving Dog Championship.
