Hello Folks,
I was lucky enough to attend two Pat Hastings seminars in 2006, one in the spring in ottawa, and it was amazing, Pat is a wonderful teacher and she helps though her seminar to understand how to breed for and just how important correct structure is within your breeding program.
She had three litters to evaluate in Ottawa, and then of course many older dogs as well, it was a good mix of hands on, to show what you spend the morning learning.
I was thrilled to learn that Pat was coming back to Canada, this time in Montreal and much to my pleasure, I had a litter of Icelandic Puppies at just the right age for them to be a show and tell litter.. So it was wonderful to be able to have Pat do the puppy structure tests on Tofra Tobba's and Pineridge Vakur's litter of three black tri's.
The puppy that was the most structually sound and closest to the Icelandic Breed Standard was Greenstone Black Pearl, see her in the photos with Pat holding her up to show off her outline.
If you ever get the chance to attend a Pat Hastings Seminar, I highly recommend it.. lots to learn, and her books are excellent..
