Clayton’s Eli Jr. is reported as a son of Eli and Spook, sharing the published parentage of Bullyson. Catalog records name Jerry Clemmons as breeder and Bennet Clayton as a historical owner. A separate historical account identifies Eli Jr. as Art’s sire. The profile preserves these specific family connections and original names without implying present-day ownership. The interview reprint also reports Eli Jr.’s sale to Douglas Nirider at seventeen months old, without dating the transfer or establishing a complete ownership chronology. The interview distinguishes Eli Jr. and Bullyson as black male littermates from the females, brindle Brendy and black Lady, adding context beyond shared parents.
