BURTON

---

  2007 & 2008 AKC  #13 Working Dog #2 breed and all breed Rottweiler.

Burton is one of the select few Rottweilers  ever to make the AKC Top Twenty Working Dog ranking .  With limited showing he was the AKC # 2 Breed and All Breed Rottweiler. Burton won multiple AKC and CKC Best in Show wins, multiple AKC Specialty Shows in Florida (Gulfstream Rottweiler Club )  California (Golden State  Rottweiler Club and   Associated Rottweiler Fanciers of Northern California ), Colorado (Mile High Rottweiler Club ), and Alaska.   In 2007 he was ranked #2 Rottweiler in Canada although only shown one weekend- due to his winning the National Specialty and a BIS thereafter.

Burton is a Westminster and Eukanuba AOM and the sire of multiple BISS and BIS winners,  AKC Top 3 ranked Rottweilers (both breed and all breed ) Eukanuba BOB winners and performance titled dogs from very limited breedings. 

 Burton's RN was attained with  three  1st place wins with only 4 days of training with Teresa Bradley of Neu-Rodes. Teresa also piloted Burton to his CD with 3 straight Q's and placements (including a 195.5 and 1st in Novice B), his RA and an RE, the latter with all 1st place wins. Given the number of dogs he defeated when undertaking his performance titles, Burton was ranked the #1 RN dog in the United States for the 1st quarter 2010.

Burton was a substantial dog with type, bone and deep true mahogany color.  He was  a fabulous working dog  who excelled in all venues and whose temperament was perhaps his most significant asset. Not only were Burton's parents CHIC (all 4 passing) but so too  was he, and  a number of his highly achieved littermates and a high percentage of his offspring.  Frozen Semen is available to approved bitches of Merit .

 At 10 months of age, Burton won Best Puppy in Specialty at the Canadian National Specialty (2003). He was VP-1 Best Puppy at the USRC NW Regional Sieger show. At the 2004 ARC National, Burton was one of only a couple of males ( out of approximately 90 entries) between 6-9 months old to place in all three of the 2004 ARC Nationals Futurity, Sweepstakes and Regular classes. At 20 months of age Burton won Best of Winners at the prestgious Minnesota Northstar Specialty (5 pts) under John Connolly and then the following day repeated his Best of Winners  picking up his second major! Burton finished his Am Ch with a 3rd major.

 Burton according to the RCC records appears to be the only rottweiler in Canadian history to have won both BPISS (2003) and then BISS at the National Specialty(2007). His National BISS was over 100+ dogs and his BIS on that weekend in Canada was over the then #1 dog all breeds in Canada just as his working group wins were over the Top working dog in Canada - Burton from very limited breedings has produced the 2006 ARC BOSSw winner, multiple BIS,  BISS , American & Canadian Champions ,including those finishing from the puppy or 12-18 classes, as well  as multiple performance titled offspring .Burton is proudly an ARC Silver production sire, RCC Hall of Fame  and Westminster AOM winner.
