Champion Xanthos Black Thorn JW
XANTHOS BLACK THORN JW jointly bred in May 1998 with Sue Green out of our XANTHOS ORANGE BLOSSOM he is by Rainscourt Son of A Gun. Thornton thrilled us by winning first time out and continued to do well, winning his Junior Warrant with ease and taking his first CC before his 2nd birthday. He took his SGWC at a Field Trial, and gained his full title in April 2003. He has many champion progeny to his credit, many of whom also enjoy working in the shooting field, a real gentleman of a dog who is a pleasure to live with. Sadly a nasal tumour got the better of him just days before his 12th birthday. Very much missed by all who knew him.
