Grand River released the information that DARK SHADDOW has been retired. We have loved this male from the 1st time we seen him and have been very happy with his offspring we have seen. Although we are saddened by this news we are happy to have purchased The Wiseman from Grand River. We feel certain he will carry on the excellence of the DARK SHADDOW line. Wiseman is exactly what we were looking for in a Jr. Herdsire. Beautiful dense crimpy fleece with a nice soft handle. Excellent bloodlines with his sire Dark Shaddow who was the 2006 Reserve Herdsire of the Year. His dam is Sweet Magnolia who placed 2nd in a class of 14 behind the color champion in her only show. Wiseman's fleece has exceptional density and staple length with a high frequency crimp. It is as bright as any black I have ever seen. His first histogram was an incredible 17.9 and his third fleece was still under 21 this is not often seen in true blacks. Wiseman's conformation is flawless with big bone, straight top line, with stick straight legs. Wiseman has matured into a very impressive male. He has a very gentle personality and is an excellent breeder. If you like Dark Shaddow and want to add his blood lines to your herd this is a way to do so at a very reasonable fee. Wiseman keeps getting better with age and we expect him to produce some very good show quality cria for us!
