Making an Impact on the Otterhound Breed

Professional photographer Maija DiSalvo.

Recently I was contacted by the magazine Sight and Scent which is a publication dealing with all breeds in the hound group.  For the month of August they are featuring the Otterhound breed. They were looking for advertisement of outstanding sires.  Twice I have advertised Jack when they have had this issue but decided this year to write about his success on my blog instead!  For the past four years, Jack has been designated the Stud Dog of the year in the Otterhound Club of America due to the success of his offspring.  It is due to the tenacious efforts of their owners that has led to Jack's notoriaty.  Look at the following Otterhounds who claim Jack as their father:
