What are his/her unique personality characteristics?

SHE IS A TWO-YEAR-OLD THAT I BRED. SHE’S MOSTLY JEFF KING LINES. AND SHE’S VERY SWEET. A VERY PERSONABLE DOG. SHE LOVES TO CUDDLE. SHE’S A BIG COUCH POTATO SOMETIMES, TOO. BUT SHE’S VERY WELL BEHAVED INSIDE AND VERY CALM, BUT VERY FOCUSED FOR A TWO YEAR OLD ALREADY. THAT’S WHY SHE CAN GO ON IDITAROD.

What is that litter’s “theme” name and other siblings’ names from that litter?

THEY WERE BORN DECEMBER 30TH, 2016. AND THAT WAS A YEAR OF A LOT OF CELEBRITY DEATHS, SO WE HONORED THEM. THERE WAS EIGHT OF THEM, SO FOUR GIRLS, FOUR BOYS. SHE’S ACTUALLY DEBBIE REYNOLDS. AND THEN THERE WAS ZSA ZSA AND CARRIE FISHER, DAVID BOWIE, AND PRINCE, AND COHEN, AND WILDER FOR GENE WILDER.

What is the bloodline?

THIS BLOODLINE IS MOSTLY OUT OF JEFF KING. IT’S OUT OF ONE OF MY FEMALES – MAIN LEAD DOGS – BUTCHER, WHICH WAS OUT OF JEFF KING’S ZIG AND BARNUM. SHE WAS BRED WITH ANOTHER MALE I HAVE THAT WAS ALSO MOSTLY JEFF KING. IT WAS A FEMALE I HAD, BUBBLES, WITH HIS DOG BEN.
