What are his unique personality characteristics?

SHE’S JUST A VERY WILLING LEADER; ONE THAT YOU CAN RUN JUST ABOUT EVERY DAY IN LEAD AND SHE DOESN’T REALLY SEEM TO GET TIRED OF IT AND NEED A BREAK FROM LEAD. I THINK SHE LED ALMOST EVERY RUN EXCEPT FOR MAYBE A TOTAL OF 100 MILES OF THE RACE. LAST YEAR WAS THE SAME: SHE LED ALMOST EVERY STEP TO HERE. AND VERY GOOD “GEE/HAW.” JUST SUPER WILLING AND DON’T REALLY HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ANYTHING WHEN SHE’S UP THERE.

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

YEAH, SHE’S FROM THE CHARLIE BROWN LITTER. HER SIBLINGS WERE IN THE TEAM: CHARLIE, FRIEDA AND PIGPEN.

What is the bloodline?

SHE IS A MIX BETWEEN MACKEY DOGS AND KING DOGS. HER MOM IS A DOG NAMED SHANNON THAT I GOT FROM JEFF KING, AND HER DAD IS A DOG NAMED DREAD WHO RAN ON A LOT OF LANCE’S WINNING TEAMS. SO SHE’S GOT PHENOMENAL BLOOD LINES.
