Historical context

Colby’s Chita is the brindle female in FIAPBT 226, with birth reported as 7 January 1963 and breeder Louis B. Colby. The historical-owner field lists Louis B. Colby, Pete Sparks and J.R. Loposay, without dates for those associations. Barney and Jenny are her reported parents; record 183 pairs her with Rusty as Dubs’s parents. This identifies the Chita branch within Jeep’s published paternal ancestry. The family book’s public OCR recalls Chita’s transfer to the Loposays as thanks from Pete Sparks for help during a truck breakdown.
