With an inbreeding coefficient of 13.9% Woodchuck was bred in 1949 with one littermate and no full siblings. A grandson of Port Fortune The Ace he was a devotee of hunting vermin and was an accomplished retriever. On the death of his owner this dog was given to Mr. D.D. Eliot, a professional trainer of retrievers. He taught Woodchuck to retrieve duck from the water and pheasants from the land. One day Mr. & Mrs. Haggerty were over at Mr. Elliot’s place and saw Woodchuck retrieving and fell in love with him and decided they must have a Norwich terrier. They bought their first puppy from Miss Elizabeth V.C. Bixby and named it Newry’s Pinch Hatter.
