Junebug
Junebug was bred by Lesa Bastow of PatientDanes in Michigan. After falling in love with her relative Dori, (then a puppy, now MBISS GCH Patientdanes Making Waves Dori) I contacted Lesa about upcoming breedings. My mother was adamant that I have a harlequin female, and while I told her that color was the last priority, and reminded her how rarely a top quality harlequin bitch was available, she insisted. I lost my mother a week before Junebug’s litter was born with an unusual number of beautiful harlequin girls, and I truly believe it was meant to be. Click here for pedigree.
Junebug is an exceptional female, with a fantastic temperament and beautiful conformation. We are still showing her and have begun health testing. OFA results here. (Cardiac Submitted March 2018, not posted yet but scanned copy of the exam available to those interested)
