SHR Sandy Shoal's Sydney Sinclair JH, RE, CGC Sydney's Pedigree Health Clearances Sydney is my oldest Chessie and the foundation to Whiskey Creek Chesapeakes.   A steadfast and loyal companion, she is not like any other Chessie I have been around.  She was born an "old soul" and just seemed to never do anything wrong. Always a willing and "easy" girl, she spoiled me in thinking that ALL Chesapeakes are as easy as what she is! Sydney was the mother of two fine litters.  She is the mother of Walker and of Trout. She is a grand-dam of four wonderful litters and the great-grand-dam to Willow's litter of puppies- Nine boys and one girl! Sydney always whelped easily and took exceptional care of her offspring. To this day when I have a litter of pups, I can be rest assured that "Grandma Syd" will step in and correct any bad behavior from any of the pups. Proud Grandma with Twigs (down) and Reid (sit) Photo complements of BrownDog Photography Sydney will be 13 years of age in November 2011.  I hope and pray that she is around to see her great grandchildren performing in the multiple venues that Whiskey Creek Chesapeakes show in! The images below were taken of Sydney in June 2008 at almost 10 years of age.  As you can see...being an "old girl" doesn't stop Sydney from running, jumping off docks, and being an active part of Whiskey Creek Chesapeakes! Thanks goes to BrownDog Photography for the images below.
