Roger (Buddy) Noon and
Baker's King - Dual National Field Champion
1956
Here in Bud Noon's own words is a composite picture of Bench Dual Champion Baker's King:
"King is three and half years old, bought as a pup for hunting until I acquired the field trial bug. His ability to learn quickly was marvelous and his only will was to please at all times. This trait has only improved with age and today I can honestly say he is perfection. He is a dog that works with all his heart, through affection which always has been lavished upon him. I never worry about him while at the trials where children are about as he loves them all. He is truly gentle and yet manages to give the outward appearance of being magnificent and proud. I might say he couldn't have been better named.
While I was putting him through to his bench championship I was working him at the same time and it was quite a problem to keep him in the best of condition for show, but the judges must have thought I had the problem licked. They remarked particularly on his beautiful coat and good tail. King keeps consistently at 90 lbs. and stands 24 inches.
I have nothing but praise for the Chesapeake breed and am active in our club here. I only wish every Chesapeake man could experience the pleasure I have found in King."
King ran 9 All-Age trials, finished 8 and placed in 7 of them, earning three 1st Places, one 2nd Place, one 3rd Place, two 4th Places and one CM (JAM).
