Tiva's breeders, Anita & Gary Weiss, named her Indian Rain Dance since she has Indian Brook's line in her pedigree.  With some internet research on American Indian names we found that the word Tiva means Dance from the Hoppe Indians.  Tiva's nickname is Tiva the Diva!!</B></I></div> <div> <I><B>Tiva earned her Canine Good Citizen title on August 28 and then earned her Natural Ability title through NAVHDA on August 29, 2010.  She scored a Prize 1 total points of 107!

He produced titles such as Versatile Champions, Master/Senior/Junior Hunters, Field and Amateur Field Champions. But equally as important, Higgins produced family hunting companions and proved to us that your hunting companion can live with his or her family inside the home. Higgins made this breed better and will continue to through his offspring!
