I am very happy with what we got. The phone has started to ring and I'm sure we will be getting puppy deposits very soon. One person from North Carolina has already mailed me his deposit.

Look at his style |
Hank is a stunning stud dog. Just check out his style. I was first turned onto him by my friend Kelly. Kelly told me if I ever had Sage breed again that Hank is the Stud dog I was looking for. I did my homework and soon got to know Hanks owner John. John has been awesome to work with and I soon found out just how serious a dog owner and breeder John is. John is working on getting Hank his Master hunter title. He has done an impress job with his training. Here is some info that John gave me about Hank.
Hank is owned & trained by Jon Hafen. He is dual registered with both AKC & NAVHDA. This dog has a great disposition & high intelligence. He learns fast, & maintains what he learns, thus being very biddable & easy to train. Hank is all business when he hunts birds! He points & holds steady with extreme style, & follows up with flawless retrieves from both land & water. Hank has tons of hunting experience on chukar, grouse, pheasant & waterfowl. NAVHDA titled with a prize 1 Natural Ability, & also OFA hips certified. With extremely impressive bloodlines, both his mom & dad are AKC Master Hunters. Some of his dad's accomplishments also include:
- AKC National Gun Dog Champion
- AKC Field Champion
- AKC Amateur Field Champion &
- Many other 1st, 2nd, & 3rd place wins at individual field trials in & out of state.
Solid pedigree worth checking out:

Great pedigrees on both parents. Sage the mothers pedigree shows that 5 of 6 parents and grandparents are versatile champions in the Navda side. Her hips are OFA certified and she is registered in AKC and NAVHDA. She scored a 106 and prize two in natural ability test as a pup.
