Wils. Mataoka Road 'Hawk Hill'

Post by GaryCAZ »

Thanks to Bob Hamilton for a piece of this beauty. Sometimes we forget just how fine the McLellan Onc. tigrinum lines bred from Odcdm Tiger Butter and the Odcdm Tiger Hambuhren progeny were. This picture is a timely reminder.

What a fabulous thing, I have never seen it or heard of it. If its old & I take it it is then modern breeding isn't making much progress.

A slight typo in the name, it is Matoaka Road just in case anyone wants to research it.

Oops! The guy who named it was a real case, he lived on that road. A cripple, in actuality, with a crippled personality. An obnoxious fellow who was nothing in the Odont world but who caused problems for a brief spell and then croaked. Not missed.

Well Carl, I do enjoy writing about certain people's demise! Think of the fun they can have when my turn comes around.......
