| We acknowledge the
wisdom of the breeders and dog folk of the past who we have attempted
to emulate. They are our mentors. It takes years to learn, to try
and to fail, always attempting to put into practice what one can
understand intellectually. Ti was our main teacher. It is said that
a man only has one great dog in his lifetime. I hope that is not
true. I hope that the kennel full of his sons,daughters, and grandkids
will carry on his blood into the future of the Australian Kelpie
in the United States.
The many satisfied ranchers, farmers, and stockmen
that have used his offspring as working dogs bear witness to his
greatness. Among other get, his son, our DeHaro’s Sport is
now nine years old, and has been working the BarNun sheep for the
years since Ti’s demise, and is a worthy dog. His daughter
DeHaro’s Kate, has produced well. Ti carries on. That is as
it should be.
