Historical context

Colby’s Rusty, also labelled Loposay’s Rusty in FIAPBT 225, is the male attributed to breeder and historical owner J.R. Loposay. His reported parents are Texas and Burkette’s Dutch; Dubs is shown from Rusty and Chita. This is the UKC 370923 catalogue identity, separate from the Crenshaw/Hobbs Rusty discussed in historical retrospectives. The latter dog’s 1954 birthday and weight are not transferred here. Colby and Jessup’s 1997 account specifically lists Loposay’s Rusty among dogs of Colby lineage whose names use another prefix. Its Jeep pedigree places Rusty above Dubs, matching this family rather than the unrelated Crenshaw/Hobbs namesake.
