owned by Barbe & Dan Lynch NY USA - shown in this picture with his breeder

'Boomer'
    Boomer left Australian shores as a 12 week old puppy for his new home in the USA. It was decided by his new owners not to crop his ears, even though it meant that it would be more difficult for him to compete evenly in the show ring. However, his fabulous movement set him apart and he gained his American Championship with wins under Breed Specialists and then completed his Canadian Championship several years later. His breeder contributed to both Ch's by handling him to one Major in the USA and gaining 7 Canadian points over a specialty weekend. Boomer was one of 3 Australian bred Briards presented at the National Rassemblement in 2000. He was the only one with a Championship and made Australian Briard history when he became the first Australian bred Briard to earn a Selection. Both French judges commented on his outstandingly correct Briard gait. He remained as the only Aussie bred Select dog until his close relative Aust Ch Trilby Lulu Bear HT was presented at the 2004 Rassemblement where she also gained the coveted Select status. Boomer's offspring have also done well in the Selection ring with one of his daughters, Am Ch Bigtree's Primma Donna being Selected at only 13 mths of age.

His offspring include:

Ch Lotteau Regina Coeli - Reserve Winners Bitch USA National 1999

Ch Bigtrees Prima Donna HIC, Rass Select '00 - Best Puppy in Show Canadian National 2000
