Group Rooster*'s first American born litter was whelped in Kansas yesterday to D'Bulls Irish. Congrats to Dick Bullard on his young Roosters.

Maryville Rumble* had a finalist in the Bluffs Run puppy stake and a pup out of Wheelie Cool has made the Southland Consolation. This is still just the very first pups out of the second wave of Rumble pups breaking in.

I have heard that my first TCI with frozen semen resulted in a litter of 9 pups. The second has 10 pups. So we are definately open for business now to do implants on a regular basis. We are doing radioimmunioassay progesterone tests. That is the absolute gold standard in the industry. Timing is everything and we will use nothing but the best sources for our outside lab work.

Please check out the Farloe Black* sire movie on our homepage and on Chris' Cache. Chris Stivers has done another outstanding job!

Both Chris and I will be attending the Fall Meet in Abilene and we look forward to any questions any of you may have about our stud dogs and/or TCI procedure for breeding.

IGOBY BRADY - ALL AMERICAN

Tonight one of his first offspring, Coach Fancy Dove will make her first official start in not a maiden race, but the first round of the puppy STAKES! She won all three of her official schooling races at the tough Tri-State greyhound track. We wish Greg and Susan Geter the best with their young flyer! Igoby Brady has semen at most outlets and is here on premise. We just recieved a bitch in for him this afternoon. This is Kiowa Sweet Trey' first All American son and he should not be ignored.

Fine Silver*........we have word back from our veteran finishing trainer, Joey Lingle that the very first litter of Silver pups are doing "excellent" and he "couldn't be more pleased" as well as "they are extremely aggressive". We will cross all fingers and toes that these Silver pups live up to their potential.

Lab news......I have gotten word back that my first TCI done with frozen semen DID in fact whelp a viable litter of pups on the exact day they were due. That just goes to show that proper timing IS everything. I have now opened up to all outside clients for both fresh and frozen semen inseminations via trans cervical insemination.

Please take a minute to watch Bar The Devil's replay on the homepage and read the write up via the IGB website. This dog will be worth waiting for! I think it is becoming extremely obvious that the CORRECT import sires are working and working well in this country. All of our import sires have had multiple breedings. And I have yet to have one breeder report back with a negative! Swahili Eile* seems to be a big breeder favorite and is throwing himself into his pups. Group Rooster* will throw tenacity, guts, aggression and stamina, Farloe Black* will throw speed, speed and more speed along with an unrivaled drive home. Maryville Rumble*.....we all know what he throws....All Americans, stakes competitors and top grade pups at all the top tracks in the country! With Fine Silver......his pups are just around the corner and we will not be disappointed!

Group Rooster* has been successfully bred to Jr's Prelude. We will be expecting pups on or around November 11th. This is an exciting breeding. All of the pups are already spoken for too! I was very flustered about this breeding as my vial of blood serum arrived at the lab crushed in shipment! I had no idea what my "number" was. Thankfully Prelude was still early and we were able to get the job done on the correct day!

My uncle, Ron Niedfeldt DVM will be with us all day tomorrow! What a treat to have a licensed veterinarian at our disposal for an entire day! We will perform a TCI together as well as do several other duties around the farm.

Good luck to Bar The Devil* on Derby Final Night! What an honor to run in the 600 yd race on this prestigious night! You can watch the Derby LIVE on www.RTE.ie! 4pm EST.

I will get an update next week on the first Fine Silver*'s in training and post an update.

RED THUNDER..............have you seen Thundering Dude????? If not tune in to the Palm Beach Kennel Club to watch Red Thunder's firstborn tear it up! This boy can run! He has won 3 out of his last 4 starts and shows no signs of slowing! His brother, Thundering Sam is no slouch either!

Igoby Brady has a hot one schooling on at Tri-State.....keep your eyes peeled on this youngster as I am told he can part the wind!

That is about all from here.....we wish all the Irish Derby finalists a safe trip around Shelbourne!

Pictured are some 12mo.old pups by Fine Silver*. They are oned by (left to right) Henry Howe, Dick Gerst and Dick Ciampa. They left Wednesday for Joey Lingle's farm to be finished. We wish all the owners luck with these beauties!

This pup is Sword Of Eile aka "Blade". We are pretty proud of this guy. He is a wee 8 mo. old but showing us a ton of promise. He is of course one of Swahili Eile's firstborns.

Maryville Rumble*......I am hearing that the Rumble's schooling on the Abilene track are setting some pretty fast times. This looks like it could be an exciting Meet for Rumble.

Jr's Prelude is back in season and will be bred to Group Rooster*. We are very excited about this litter. Her previous litters look very good.

Congrats to Doug Allen and his pups. Doug's dogs have quietly climbed into the top grades at several major tracks. Most recently Hey Say May went to AA at Tri-State. John McEuen is also back up in grade A at Palm Beach.

Good luck to our friends at the B&J Kennel and Henry Howe on their two finalists in this weekends $50K stakes final.

TS Hanna is due to hit tonight and we also wish everyone well in Hurricane Ike's path.
