Kodi is a robust dog with high desire to retriever. His owner is a very active and avid hunter. This dog has proven to be able to meet and exceed the demands of a very full hunting schedule.
He earned his HRC title and has hunted several seasons. He is still in training and looking forward to rigorous 2020 schedule in the field.
Kodi is the son of MBIS GCHG Sandbar's Hardcore Hank MH WD QAA and Sandbar's Original Sin
Hank is the #1 Chessie (All-breed) in 2020 as he was in 2019. He is also currently the #10 Sporting Dog in the Nation. He is a 4 time All-Breed Best In Show winner, a Master Hunter, he has his WD, he is Qualified All-Age and has qualified to compete at the Master National twice.
Kodi's mother is the daughter of a Odie who was Winners Dog at the ACC National Specialty show.

This will be Boca's second litter here at Sandbar.  Owners of pups from her first litter have been sending back great reports and we feel she will be a valuable asset to our breeding program.
Boca is the product of a frozen insemination breeding with one of my favorite old dogs.  Her sire Ch. Sandbar's Cast in Stone (Coy) was whelped in 1994 and was a littermate to our lovely MBIS Ch Sandbar's Last Laugh who still holds the honor as Top Conformation bitch in the history of the breed.  Coy produced an AKC All-breed Best in Show winner and #1 Chesapeake. He produced a Canadian National Specialty winner, other AKC titled dogs and many very capable hunting companions. We waited to use the limited semen until we had just the right bitch. 4 1/2 years ago we decided to breed him to Alice , a daughter of our National Specialty Winner and Best in Show dog Molson. Alice had produced our 6 time Best in Show Dog Aries so we had confidence that this pedigree would produce something Special.  We were right. 
Now on to the next step. This combination of Kodi to Boca creates a pedigree that brings together some of the top dogs in the breed.  We are very excited to see what the future brings.
