Mitts, after completing his American Championship was sold by Merrilane Kennels to David & Rosina Brace, of Sjecoin Boxers, Victoria, Australia. So I'll quote a few passages from a article written by David & Rosina Brace." A Tribute to a marvellous Champion Boxer. " Mister Mitts ", as he affectionately became known to his many friends, was truly the most gracious yet stalwart boxer we have ever had the privilege to live with. A real gentlemen, he never displayed bad behaviour yet he was never dull. The kids adored him. He came to us as a young striking dog, with impeccable breeding in his genes and did not fail to deliver his wonderful attributes to many of his get. The proud sire of 39 champions and 5 grand champions, and more than 50 BIS wins with numerous Royal Groups and BOB's, his worth will remain for years to come. We salute his life and honor his contribution to the Boxer Breed throughout Australia and beyond its shores." Click here to see Mitts' Pedigree
