Rupert finished the year 2007 as the AKC Lure Coursing #1 Dual Champion, #2 Whippet & #2 Sighthound and 2008 as the AKC Lure Coursing #6 Whippet.

 Rupert finished quickly at 13 months old from the Bred By Exhibitor class, shown only by Shannon Lyons.  He excelled on the field too.  He finished the year 2006 in the ASFA Top 20 and finished the year 2007 AKC LCing #1 Dual Champion, #2 Whippet & #2 Sighthound!  His best quality was his personality and temperament, a goof ball from birth - he always had a smile on his face!  He has produced several incredibly nice litters out of some lovely bitches, and they all have his love for the bunny and his wonderful puppy spirit. 

Rupert was such a big goof ball and oh so smart, he quickly learned that if he sits he gets a treat and if we were so inclined I think he would have done wonderful at obedience and rally and maybe even agility, he was very agile and loved to jump over things.  We let him go to the Rainbow Bridge on January 6, 2017 after he had thrown a blood clot in his leg, paralyzing the leg. He spent his last few days being loved on and catered to, but his foot started to deteriorate with no blood supply and we let him go peacefully on a Friday morning.
