Champion Rosecoppice Blackjack "Stoker" was purchased from Eleanor English at 8 weeks old.  John and Sylvia travelled to Hereford from Sheffield to collect him.

They will always remember the journey home.He travelled in a small wooden carrying box, and was impeccably behaved, sitting looking out at the passing landscape, showing off his wonderful bright eyes in a jet black expressive face.

From that day until the day he died he was the perfect gentleman, never putting a foot wrong.  He sired Five Champions, in spite of not being a keen stud, always mated to bitches on his own terms, with great affection.

Stoker was a joy to own, always greeted you with a smile, a happy fellow who joined in everything that was going on.  He died age 15.
