Without a doubt, Ch. Whippoorwill Razor was the most significant contributor to the gene pool at Phantom Kennels.  This great dog had everything that one could possibly want as a specimen of the Pointer breed: Perfect conformation, a beautiful head, beautiful profile, absolutely gorgeous features, exquisite style, 12 o’clock straight up tail pointing and backing, unbelievable speed, animation, endurance, supreme wild bird finder, extremely easy to handle, extremely intelligent, quiet in the kennel, easy to train and he stayed “over the hill” broke.  Razor was very adaptable and ran extremely big when he needed to, but always handled.  He won All-age and Shooting Dog events to prove it.  

Because of his elegant looks, style, and conformation, artist Constance Payne decided to paint a portrait of Razor.  It can be seen at the William Secord Gallery in New York City or you can view it online at: http://www.dogpainting.com/art_detail.cfm?Reference_Number=CP_11  

He easily won the All America Shooting Dog Championship held in S. Dakota with 5 dazzling finds on pheasants during 90 degree weather and finished the one hour event far to the front.  Tip Davis, one of the judges, commented that he put down one of the most perfect performances he had ever seen. 

In his prime, Razor weighed about 55 lbs.  He was a great stud and sired pups until he was 12 years old.  He passed away when he was 14 years old and never had any serious health problems during his life.  His progeny seem to carry these traits as well.  When it comes to bloodlines, Razor had it all.  Sired by the great Ch. Dunn’s Fearless Bud, his dam was also a daughter of Ch. Whippoorwill Rex and National Ch. El Sauz Doll.  What more could you ask for?                          

Razor consistently improved the quality of our pups and delivered a high percentage of extremely great wild bird dogs with the great style and class. Phantom’s Razorette, Phantom’s Sharper Image, and Phantom’s Shooter carry the Razor blood in our current line up of matrons and studs.   These great individuals are showing that they are great producers as well.  Additionally, we have other young dogs that will be in our breeding program in the future!
