Kennth adkins owns Rebel,dont think rebel was trialed(not sure) but one heck of a gundog and has reproduced a bunch of LPRCH as well as gundogs.
Lita was trialed by kenneth a few times but was very tight mouthed,she hunted like a demon and was mostly upper med to med fast depending on scenting conditions.I killed several rabbits to Lita at a young age but never really liked the tightness of mouth,she was a very pretty dog about 14" tall and a pretty mouth when she used it.

Lynn, Is Lita the mother of Bo, Holly, and Wags?

I think so Mike,her AKC name was Perkins Run-n-Gun Mi Lita,but i belive her NKC Name was Adkins Mi lita.She crossed with Rebel very good,several champions in little pack from that cross besides being good under the gun.Rebel has thrown some tuff hounds on different females.
John Roe also owned Mi Lita and bred her to Pine Mt chester not heard how they turned out,i assume good but haven't heard.I heard later that Lita came with more mouth but was upper med at best with foot,could have been reason she stayed tight was always running to catch up,and decided to run her rabbit regardless of what the pack done.

If that dog is a out of that cross he should be able to fill his freezer up.
I never saw either parent run, but have saw his Mates run, and they are Rabbit Dawgs.

Jimbo is the full mate to Holly. Thanks guys for the positive comments. Rebel was never trialed but I think he would have done real well. He was teh best dog that I have ever owned or probably ever will own. The old rascal died about two weeks ago he turned 14 yrs. old in May.. as lynn said he was a good producer but probably crossed better with the Northway dogs. I have three young dogs out of him that are doing real well and they will be trialed this fall. There are several rabbit champions out of Rebel at this time, I own 5 of them myself. Thanks again Mike and Lynn. Lynn give me acall and we will run sometime. I would like your evaluation on the young dogs , tell me if they are trial material.
