Description I think this is the last of-age shot I needed to upload this season. Apologies for her enormous neck--I don't know what I was thinking when I was doing the lineart.

Why, yes, this is the best Northern Dancer outcross ever.

Markings: "Freckle" markings around eyes, on lips, ears; ermine spots
Temperament: A hundred times more confident than her mother, Freckles strongly reminds onlookers of her sire when he was very young: she is brash, bold and nosy, with a strong sense of family and love. She has to investigate everything, but it's just curiosity, not fear, that drives her constant quest to discover.

It's a term for those deep, deep closers that seem to only run in the stretch.

I should. Except that now I've started doing monthlies that's not so easy anymore. I'll make you work for it and put her name in the gallery search bar.
