Notes:
REUBEN ROM IS A VERY CONTROVERSIAL DOG. NOT ONLY DID HE SUPPOSEDLY QUIT, BUT HE WAS PLACED ON PAT PATRICK'S YARD FOR A PERIOD OF TIME, AND PATRICK BRED TO REUBEN MULTIPLE TIMES, BUT DID NOT REFLECT ANY OF THESE BREEDINGS ON HIS PEDIGREES. THE MOST FAMOUS PAPER-HANG WAS THAT OF WICHITA'S CH BLAZE, WHO WAS SUPPOSEDLY OFF OF BOLIO TO BLITZ, BUT PATRICK WAS CAUGHT ON TAPE ADMITTING THAT HE FALSIFIED THE PAPERWORK. WHEN THAT HAPPENED, THE SPORTING DOG JOURNAL OFFICIALLY CHANGED CH BLAZE'S PEDIGREE FROM BOLIO/BLITZ TO REUBEN/BLITZ, WHICH IS THE FIRST TIME THE JOURNAL EVER DID THAT. OTHER DOGS *HIGHLY* SUSPECTED AS BEING OFF OF REUBEN ARE MASON'S CH HAMMER (SUPPOSEDLY OFF OF BBB/BLITZ), PATRICK'S TESSY (SUPPOSEDLY OFF OF BOLIO/BLITZ, AND THUS CH BLAZE'S SISTER), AS WELL AS THRIFT'S CH BOBBY JR. (SUPPOSEDLY OFF OF BBB/MABEL). PAT ALSO ADMITTED ON TAPE THAT THE REASON HE BRED TO REUBEN WAS BECAUSE HE STOPPED *TWO* BOLIO DOGS BACK-TO-BACK THAT PATRICK THOUGHT A LOT OF.
