“Ard Righ Patriot (Colvin Davis) started with a fast drive to the south, missed the turn back east and north about a half mile out… After being returned he put on a prairie show with his running. The mile long creek edge was taken in one cast. He never slacked in his run and power adding a finish that saw him still wanting to reach for more country after he had put a section and a half between him and handler. He added a find at 25. He stood in the alfalfa with great style…” The American Field, Mazie Davis, Reporter

CH Ard Righ Justina whelped a litter sired by CH Calico’s Thrillogy. Due to complications at whelping, there was only one surviving pup, Ard Righ Grace! Thanks to a lot of love and attention from Jeanette Tracy, Gracie pulled through the first couple of weeks and is turning into a bold, little pup. We’re hoping for good things from this young daughter of two great champions!

“Second went to Ard Righ Rockette…handled by Jeanette Tracy. Rockette was forward from the breakaway, seemingly lost after five minutes until she was found standing at 11. We could see her standing deep into the piney woods where she patiently awaited handler and flush. At 15 she once again had birds indicated and handled well. She ran with spirit, requiring little scouting. At 24 she stood off course where despite a request to relocate no birds were produced and she was taken on to finish the hour in a happy forward motion.” The American Field, Margaret C. Drew, Reporter.

Ard Righ Bred Dog Close In Championship

At just three years old, Apalachee Ace Frehley, a pointer male bred by Ard Righ Kennels came real close to winning the National Shooting Dog Championship! Ace is out of the outstanding producer Ard Righ Distinction by CH Wynot Ace. He is owned by Darron Britt of Grayson, Georgia and handled by Shawn Kinkelaar.

“Kinkelaar pointed out Frehley to the far left front before the creek crossing beyond the Kerry place. An excellent cast that carried him to the front where he hunted diligently without success until 65 when Kinkelaar called point far ahead in tall pines. An outstanding find in a place not hunted by other entries, the work handled just as it should be and probably the best find of the stake. Frehley’s finish was far to the front. He was still strong and still hunting at 90. This brace produced two coveys, both handled by Frehley. Man, he looks good on point.” The American Field, Dwight Smith, Reporter.

“The sun continued to shine in a cloudless sky and slowly the temperature rose; it was 31 degrees when Whippoorwill Firebox and Ard Righ Justina were loosed in the afternoon…The attractive Justina fired away, was seen fleetingly once well to the fore, then she was gone.” The American Field

“Ard Righ Justina (Colvin Davis) headed through Fraser’s and out the corner without looking back. Through Forsythe’s stubble field she was pointed out as she made the section look small. The big expanse of Tillbury’s was no problem for her…Halfway across the stubble field she wheeled to a stop. During the long ride Huns started to lift but the picture pretty Justina stayed pat and the rest of the covey flew as Davis approached…In the final minutes she was spotted in the north end looking as fresh as when she was turned loose.” The American Field, Mazie Davis, Reporter

“On September 6, 1902 the inaugural running of the Manitoba Championship was held near Carman, Manitoba…the revival of the Manitoba Championship was about to begin after a 64 year hiatus…During the initial 34 years of running …three pointer females won the title: Mary Montrose (1919), Becky Broomhill (1921 and 1924) and Mary Blue (1929).

“For this year’s revival, a pointer female climbed to the top of the field of 36 competitors to claim the championship. She is Ard Righ Justina, an eye-catching three year old handled by Colvin Davis.

“Justina left the breakaway with speed and determination. Near the dugout at 15 she slammed on point. She stood in the stubble with skyward head and tail. During the ride to her and Davis’ flush she was exact. As Davis walked back toward her, about six or so feet from her nose, a big covey of Huns burst from the stubble in an arching flight back over Justina’s head. She followed with her eyes as her body stayed pat. From here she reached and grabbed the country like she was on fire.” The American Field, Mazie Davis, Reporter.
