Ch Blackbriar Archie Goodwin ME (Ch Windrush Blackbriar Bite Me x Blackbriar Festval)

Archie is our oldest adult male PRT. Pat Wilcox of Blackbriar Terriers sent him to live with us. Archie's pedigree carries Imus of Willowall in both his maternal and paternal lines. His Grandsire is CH Blackbriar Watch Me “PJ”. PJ was the #1 JRT in 2000 going BoS at both Westminster and the Eukanuba Classic. In 2001 he was the #1 breed dog, finishing his career with BoB at the National Specialty. Archie is rather tightly linebred from Pat's lines. Archie has sired a litter of five pups with our bitch, Ch Flintlock's Sugar Baby SE. They are growing up nicely. His daughter Etta, has been very successful in the show ring.  her accomplishments include a group placement and being awarded Best of Opposite at the 2008 PRTAA National Specialty by Breeder/Judge Paul Ross. Andy has earned his championship and an earthdog title.

Archie earned his Champion Title at St. Paul in 2005. Being our first show dog we were rather proud that he earned is title in eleven months. We know this isn't an earth shattering timeframe, but Archie was handicapped with an incredibly novice groomer and handler. He finished with Three Majors. Archie has since taken Award of Merit at the International Kennel Club (Chicago – 2006) and Best Working Terrier at the International Kennel Club (Chicago – 2006). Archie has also earned his Junior Earthdog title in three attempts. This earned him a Maple Apple at the Greater Twin Cities Sumac Cairn Terrier Club in September 2005. Archie followed this up by earning his Senior Earthdog in March of 2006 at the Dachshund Club of America in Des Moines. In 2008 Archie earned his last three legs and his Master Earthdog title.

Archie has tested clear of problems in both hearing (Baer) and patellas (OFA). He has also tested clear Four straight years on his CERF Tests. His eyes will continue to be tested for the foreseeable future, to be certain he continues to enjoy clear eyesight.
