Briarpatch Halo

September 20, 1997 – May 10, 2013

Halo was born September 20, 1997, in Millers, MD at the Briarpatch Kennel owned by Jack and Terri Batzer.  At 8 weeks of age she moved into her forever home with Lisa Drinkwater and the Pine Hill Terriers.   Halo loved to hunt; and hunting she did, from groundhogs, red foxes, raccoons and more.  When she first started to hunt she would wait at the entrance to a den “on point” until Lisa arrived and told her it was ok to enter.  Of course, that didn’t last long.
