AKC Champion
Blythewood Gun For Hire
"Gunner"
Born October 22, 2011
Color: Salt & Pepper
Sire: CH. Reudesheim's Gigolo
Dam: CH. Blythewood Pistol Packin' Mama
Gunner was bred and handled by Joan Huber of Blythewood Kennel in eastern Pennsylvania. Gunner had four 3 point majors by the time he was 7 months old. He came home to be a puppy for a few months and then went back to Joan to prepare for the Montgomery County specialty show. He was shown there in the open dog class a couple weeks before he turned a year old and placed 3rd against the top mature dogs in the ring. Gunner finished his champion title the weekend before his one year birthday at the Mt. Vernon specialty with a 4 point major win.
Gunner is the "Golden Child" here at BVS. He is loving and cuddly without a dominant bone in his body and gets along with everyone. His looks and temperament are the epitome of my goals. He stands right at 13.5" tall and is 16.5 pounds at his optimal weight.
MAC clear, Myotonia clear, PRA Hivep3 clear, PMDS clear, Factor 7 clear
Gunner is officially RETIRED. He produced 4 litters after his 12th birthday! I kept several to move forward with.

"Timber"
Born June 22, 2021
Color: Salt & Pepper
Sire: CH. Bandsman & Augustas Everglades BV
Dam: Augustas Sinners Have Souls

Belle Vista The Devil's Gentleman
"Calvin"
Born June 26, 2021
Color: Salt & Pepper
Sire: Belle Vista Straight A's In Love
Dam: The Devil Wears Prada Kornutinna
Calvin is very mild and sweet. The show ring is not his favorite place but he suffers it well. He'd much rather be home chillin'.
MAC clear, Myotonia clear, PRA Hivep3 Clear, PMDS clear, Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CMT) clear, Comma Defect clear, Factor VII Deficiency clear
AKC Champion
Augustas License To Chill @ Belle Vista
"Wags"
Born February 28, 2022
Color: Salt & Pepper
Sire: CH Topgun Maverick
Dam: CH Bandsman & Augustas Florista BV
Wags is a sassy boy who thinks he's better than all the other boys here and should get all the attention. He gives Timber & Calvin a run for their money in the yard playing Fast & Furious with their hard turns and tricks. They are a riot to watch.
MAC clear, Myotonia clear, PRA Hivep3 carrier, PMDS clear, Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CMT) clear, Comma Defect clear, Factor VII Deficiency clear
Augustas 'N Bandsman Justice League
"Jason"
Born February 22, 2022
Color: Salt & Pepper
Sire: CH. Penlan Pandemic
Dam: Belle Vista Just Jetta @ Augustas
Jason was born and raised in Florida with co-breeder/co-owner Leslie Arendt. He quickly finished his AKC title there and sired some litters for Leslie. He's here temporarily and will return to Florida at an undetermined time. He reminds me a lot of his grandpa, Gunner, a very mild mannered and quiet boy. 13.5" tall. Orivet genetic tested clear. MAC clear by pedigree.
Massawippi Mad About You @ Belle Vista
"Martigan"
Born April 14, 2023
Color: Salt & Pepper
Sire: CH Tivoli Sparx Good Times N Tan Lines
Dam: CH Massawippi Mad Money
Martigan is a sweet and mild boy. He has a boy crush on Gunner and it is NOT reciprocated. Unfortunately, he's grown a little taller than is allowable for the show ring so he will not be earning his conformation title. A conformation title is only part of the equation. Fabulous temperament that is handler focused and eager to please without being obnoxious and he's DNA tested clear for health so he checks my two most important boxes. As of July 2024 his sire is currently at 23 Best In Shows and is #1 Terrier in Canada.
MAC clear, Myotonia clear, PRA Hivep3 clear, PMDS clear, Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CMT) clear, Comma Defect clear, Factor VII Deficiency clear
Belle Vista & Augustas Hitman
"Manny"
Born January 21, 2024
Color: Salt & Pepper
Sire: CH. Blythewood Gun For Hire
Dam: CH. Bandsman & Augustas Florista BV
I love this puppy! Out of all Gunner's children, this boy reminds me the most of Gunner and is replacing him in his retirement. Super high hopes for this boy in the show ring as well as his future progeny. Genetically clear by parentage.
