Tonka is owned
by Mickey and Donna Whalen of Garland, TX.
I'll never
forget the early morning phone call from an old friend "Griff"
(shown above
with Donna & Tonka) who also happens to be a Schutzhund judge.
She said that
she had the "Perfect!" home for a promising young boy.
I don't
normally take on Schutzhund homes, but I figured I'd hear her out.
Well one thing
was for sure, Mickey and Donna sure seemed perfect!
And I trusted
Griff's opinion of people...
So, we put them
in touch with Betsy Milligan and Carol Beasley, who also thought they
were perfect!
So what to do,
but give them the perfect puppy!!!
Tonka is shown
during a visit to Bobcaygeon in 2007.
Ann fell
completely head over heels with him and it's easy to see why!!!
He also managed
to find Yngo's wubba while here!
Tonka is doing
wonderfully on the Schutzhund field, earning his titles with ease.
Tonka
also won USRC Select Male the same weekend as his BST!
Thank you to
Judge, Lucy Ang!!!
Tonka's

that Tonka will also have a career as a show dog.
