Ch.Taz

Rolling Hill's Champion Taz was born on April 11, 1988 and was purchased at
the age of 6 weeks from his breeder Fat BIll Taz was bred out of some
very outstanding dogs. His sire Fat Bill's Stomper who was a 2x winner
double bred off of Crenshaw's Ch Rascal . Stomper was a very game dog, going
over the hour mark several times. His Dam, Fat Bill's Chance was a cold dog but a good producer.

Tas was bumped a few timre between 12 months and 22 months he looked good, but nothing special.

After his schooling was complete I began to to condition and handle the dog

#3 Taz -vs- Tomcat's Nabob M 43 Bakari

This match was to be into Sills and East Coast Asassins' Ch Dirty Red. But
for reasons unknown never showed up or even paid the forfeit. Anyway, Tomcat
was matched in to CH John Wayne, but John had just previously beat
Crenshaw's Bama. So, the owner's of John Wayne were prepared to pay the
forfeit. It was decided that Taz and Nabob would be matched. So here we go.

Tomcat purchased Nabab from Carl Mims and was a huge 43 pound dog. Taz came
in at 42 1/2. Dogs were released and taz goes straight to the head and mouth
while Nabob is still driving to get a hold. Taz slams him into the wall. Taz
is working the head most effectively but, at the 20 minute mark Taz heats up
and Nabob gets to the head and mouth of Taz punching holes. Nabob throws Taz
on his back and grabs an ear Taz goes to the throat, and stays there for the
next 5 minutes. Taz then comes to his feet but is still very hot. 30 minute
mark a turn called on Taz, but he's still in hold and he makes it through
heat as well s getting chewed up. Taz then throws nabob to the floor working
the shoulders and then he goes to the stifles and then back to the head. A
handle is made Taz comes across like a bullet hitting Nabob very hard in his
corner. A handle is made at the 47 minute mark it's nabob to go and he's
counted out wandering around the pit. Making Taz a Champion!

Joey Craddock who had bought Taz as a pup from me, never went to any of his matches, nor did he condition or handle the dog. He actually did not have the dog on his yard from the age of 22 months until he was 5 years old. I bred Taz a couple times and the best of those breedings was when I bred my Sapelo bitch to him to get Gr Ch Bo and several other great dogs.

Craddock was blackballed from the dog scene and to this day has no dogs as he was caught with over 2 dozen stolen dogs on his yard from various breeders..
