Stitch

Burwell Knockout First Commander at Marina of Hope 
May 3, 2022

AKC Championship is in process. Currently at 10 points.

Stitch is a moderate-sized wavy black and white 54 pound male who is available at stud to approved bitches. His health testing information is available here.

Show
If you are looking for Stitch during the weekends in the summer, you had better run to your local dog show. He and his human sister can be found in the show ring most weekends, either in juniors or the breed ring. He is shown exclusively by his junior owner handler. 

Serve
The love Stitch has for his junior handler and the show ring is a testament of the joy and fun (and hard work) of the sport of dog showing. Stitch and his junior handler make it look easy but many long hours have been spent in class and in the show ring. Stitch and his junior handler are currently 6th in the country for Portuguese Water Dogs. 

Shine
When not in the show ring with his favorite junior handler human sister, Stitch’s two favorite activities are playing with his littermate Kiss and hanging with his family.  He’s also a fantastic ambassador for the breed while working alongside his human mom at the vet’s office where she works!
