John and I established our “High Times” Kennel in 1977, at which time we purchased our founding sire, Chances 'R' Cool Hand Luke*** CDX MH.  Luke made the National Derby List (in 6 trials) and had All Age Places and Jams.  He became a GRCH Outstanding Sire and lived to be nearly 16 1/2 years old.

“Billy” is by “Rooster,” who line breeds back to “Luke,” Luke's brother, Chances 'R' Wizard of Wonders UD WCX, and Luke's sister, Lake Tahoe's Princess.

Billy's Mom, “Kit” is out of Rooster's sister, High Times Rumor Has It*** CD MH, and Kit's Father “Reno” is a Grandson of “Rooster.”

Billy's pedigree takes claim to great health and longevity with strong bodies and incredible intelligence.
