Rawhide Dixie Lee Clown
This is the 3rd consecutive year that Rawhide Dixie Lee Clown,
Dixie, has been selected as the German Shorthaired Pointer Club of
Idaho, Dog of the Year honor. Dixie is a female, liver and white
patched and ticked German Shorthaired Pointer, whelped on April 8,
1999.
This has been good year for Dixie, She has matured into a
“comfortable shooting dog”, full of self-confidence with a keen
desire to hunt, run and please. Her style, boldness and athleticism
have been her keys to success.
Dixie participated in 6 Field Trials this year and placed 4 times,
winning 3 times and 1 fourth place. Dixie finished her Field
Champion early in the year and then took several months off to take
care of her litter of pups. The new Field Champion was mated with
NAC/FC Born To Buck Bad Luck “Buck”. Dixie produced two little
Buck’s and 2 little Dixie’s all looking like National Field
Champions we expect them to become.
Dixie did compete in the Summer Picnic/Water Retrieve and completing
the retrieve out of water, but did not find the bird while
attempting the blind retrieve.
Dixie is working towards her Amateur Field Championship, for which
she needs 2 more points. Dixie’s success has been possible because
of the great support we have received from our club, The German
Shorthaired Pointer Club of Idaho.

The puppy is gone but not the enthusiasm. Her desire to hunt, please
and determination have made this a successful year.
Early in the year Dixie had qualifying scores in 2 Master Hunt
Tests, the two she needed to complete her Master Hunter
qualification.
For the Year 2002 Dixie had 4 AKC field trial placements, one of
which was a 1st place major and a first for Dixie was an all age
placement.

German Wirehaired Pointer Club of Utah certification trial, 1st OGD
German Shorthaired Pointer Club of Utah, 1st, Amateur Gun Dog Ret,
2nd, Open All Age.
Dixie also competed at the National Pointing Dog Championships where
she ran with great enthusiasm, had finds and a back but did not
place. The Pointing dog Championship was a great experience for the
both Dixie and her handler.
Dixie has now accumulated 7 of the 10 points she needs to become a
Field Champion, 6 points toward the Amateur Field Championship, and
competed her Master Hunter. This has only been possible because of
the great support we have received from our club, The German
Shorthaired Pointer Club of Idaho.

Shorthaired Pointer club of Idaho, The Idaho Brittany Club, and the

If Dixie had a fault this year it would be her failure to
complete the blind retrieve during the Club’s summer fun day.
Entered in the broke dog stake she held and retrieved with great
enthusiasm, and enjoyed the swim. Her performance in the blind
retrieve could be compared to her handler’s shooting… not good
enough.
Dixie has now accumulated 6 of the 10 points she needs to become
a Field Champion, 3 points toward the Amateur Field Championship,
and 5 of the 6 qualifications for Master Hunter. This has only been
possible because of the great support we have received from our
club, The German Shorthaired Pointer Club of Idaho.
