On September 23, 2008, 2X champion Wild Apple Jack bested 56 of the top cover dogs in the nation to win the 2008 Northern New England Woodcock Championship with 2 grouse and two woodcock finds with a strong seeking race in which he flowed around the often difficult course 1 in Fryeburg, Maine.

Wild Apple Jack is the product of mating Elhew Liebotschaner (Lady) and  Wynot Ace.  Jack has been handled and trained by Craig Doherty and is truly an amateur dog.  When at home, he lives in the house and is a warm and affectionate animal.  When turned loose in the woods or on the Texas prairie, he is all business and all bird dog.  He is a naturally front running dog that developed early, winning the 2007 Grand National Grouse Championship at the age of three.  His sire, Wynot Ace, won the 2003 National Amateur Grouse Championship and the 2003 International Amateur Woodcock Championship as a Fall derby and is currently owned by Jack Harang.  Elhew Liebotschaner was given to Craig by the late Bob Wehle and has excelled as a wild bird dog here in New England and  as a quail dog in Texas.  She has both derby and shooting dog placements but has been run sparingly as she has been bred to Ace four times, most recently producing a litter in August 2008.  Since winning the Grand National and the Northern New England Woodcock Championship, there has been substantial interest in Jack as a stud dog.
