Micah (Lucah
and Gracie pedigree) was our pick puppy from our first litter
whelped Nov 14, 2005.
Micah earned both his Canadian and American Championships by
19 months old with 4 point and
5 point major wins and won multiple Best in Breeds by the age
of 2.
He
has been home maturing for the last year and is now starting
to be shown occasionally by
Professional Handler Luke Baggenstos
as a Special with multiple Group placements as well as
multiple Best of Breed wins. Luke is a great new member of the
Rainy Days family. Micah finished
out September 2009 nationally ranked #18 in All Breed points
and #24 in Breed points without goin
out
of the Pacific Northwest. We are very proud of them.
Micah follows
the Breed Standard for the Mastiff and is easily one of the
most sound Mastiffs we've seen.
Unfortunately, too many breed only for size which can compromise
soundness and type. The Mastiff is a
Working Breed and form should follow function. In other words,
it doesn't matter how heavy or tall the dog
is if he doesn't have a sound temperament or can't carry his
own weight --much less do a job.
Micah has passed
all his health testing and has been awarded the MCOA
Gold Health Award!

Micah has also passed the AKC standard
for Canine Good Citizen and has a confident personality without
being obnoxious.
He is a favorite at Meet the Breed booths because he can be
trusted with the public and with the other intact dogs working
the booth.
He qualified in his first 3 Rally trials to earn his RN title
showing his ability and willingness to work and listen.
We are also investigating what else he needs to earn the MCOA
Working Dog title.
Micah is a slow maturing
dog with a lot of wrinkle and expression, outstanding pigment,
correct temperament, rock solid topline, tight cat feet, and
impressive soundness.
He has now been retired and neutered to protect his prostate
health.
Frozen semen is available to health tested females.
