Sterling
Susqudilla Yankee Shadow (Imps USA) JW

When we heard about this litter from Robyn Haskin (Susqudilla) - we couldn't say no!
What an amazing opportunity. Sterling is a bit of a miracle as he is from 35 year old frozen semen.
Sterling has that old classic Chesapeake look as well as a confident and cocky attitude. He must say hello to every dog and person he can. Another shining example of character from Susqudilla. From an early age he has lapped up the attention from his travels from the USA, to shows across the UK & Europe. He also takes part in a spot of pigeon shooting too...
We are very excited to see what the future holds for this special dog!
