The opportunity to import Ch. Ottersdream Pinocchio from England began Eibhlin’s interest in conformation and breeding. The Otterhound’s tracking ability also fascinated her, and she finally took up the sport of tracking in earnest as three of her Otterhounds earned their TDs in one year. After becoming a tracking judge and putting a CT on a young dog, Eibhlin looked for other tracking opportunities and became involved in Search and Rescue. She has had three nationally certified trailing SAR dogs, two of whom are now active and all of whom were home-bred. That first charming Otterhound rescue had an enormous influence on Eibhlin’s life. Thirty-five years, seven litters, and 14 tracking titles later, they have introduced Eibhlin to many friends, traveled the United States with her, and given her unconditional love.
