GCH 1* M ARMCH Old Mountain
Farm Nutmeg *D 'E' AR 1897
Our first homegrown ADGA Grand Champion
"Megsie" is a smart, sweet, docile doe that is always eager
to please. We often refer to her as "Auntie Nutmeg" because
she is the doe that pleasantly tolerates everyone else's
kids. I have had many does from her line here going back to
Goodwood Penny Lane 5*D and am consistantly happy with
them. Her udder has beautiful fore, medial, rear and lateral
attachments. Wonderful area and smoothness of attachment all
the way around and very pliable skin. I couldn't be happier.
She has nice sized easy expressing teats too. She has a
long and level topline, especially in the rump from hips to
pins and thurl to thurl. She has straight strong legs, good
width, a nice lean long neck and a beautiful upheaded
stance. I do wish she had more smoothly blended
shoulders although theyare an improvement
over her dams.

NOTE: I am so pleased with Nutmeg. I always knew she was
a special lady but I need to brag on her a bit more. She never
set foot in a show ring until May 2007. So...all the above show
wins have been accomplished in one show season
and as a 6 year old!
