About Zeus:

Zeus attained his AKC conformation championship under the age of two, winning two supported Best in Opposite Sweepstakes awards. Zeus received a 4 pt major at the prestigous Bucks Co. Show in 2002 and then returned as an adult to take Best of Opposite Sex in 2004. Zeus was only shown occasionally, but still was a multiple Best of Breed winner, and a Group Placer (Group 3).

On the lure-coursing field, Zeus attained his AKC field championship (FC), with three 5 point majors, starting off his field career by taking a 5 point major and was a finalist in the Best of Breed run-off (out of over 95 hounds) at the 2003 RRCUS Nat'l Specialty. Zeus is ranked as the 2003 #6 AKC RR and #16 in combined AKC and ASFA points in lure-coursing, accomplishing this feat in his first year of lure-coursing with a limited number of entries.

Zeus attained his ASFA field championship, taking 4 Best of Breeds over top ranked lure-coursing Ridgebacks, with limited showing!

Zeus is sired by Bidoux and is out of our foundation bitch, Roxie.  Zeus' health clearances are here.

We are excited that Zeus will be the grandsire of our upcoming 2012 litter!
