River is as well rounded a dog as we could ask for. He has done obedience with Don, loves to travel in the car or RV anywhere.

He surprised us in racing, making a name for himself by coming in first place at Silkenfest 2007, with a field of over 40 dogs.  He went on from there to win a few other races to get his SRC title and to be 2007’s number one racing Silken Windhound with 24 National points earned in the year. He also took 1^st place in Novice dog at Silkenfest 2007. Hutsie nicknamed River the “Iceman” when he races because as soon as she would take him to the starting line, he would turn around and freeze on the lure. He would hunker down in a crouch, every muscle just waiting. Hutsie could hold his collar with one finger and no pressure as he waited like an iceman for the movement of the lure. He sure loves the game of the race, not just the lure.

 River is a sweet dog, who in his off time loves to run down to the pond and swim. But he doesn't just hang out at the edge of the pond, he gets out and swims to swim, all with a contented look on his face.  ~(((
