PEDIGREE


In 1999, a friend came to me with a 6-month old male puppy for me to show. I watched this youngster in my backyard for maybe 15 minutes before I looked at her and said, "This is a Best in Show dog - I want a piece of him!" I became co-owner of the puppy shortly thereafter. The puppy's name was Tundra.

I kept Tundra with me that fall until he finished his Championship as an 11-month old puppy, then we sent Tundra to the US in 2002 to earn his American Championship, which he earned quite readily over 6 months. Tundra came to live with me upon his return. He was just 2 ½ years old at the time, and prior to going to the US, had been bred to his other owner's girl. At the Alberta Kennel Club show that fall, two out of three days, Tundra won BOB, the girl he had been bred to won BOS, and the pick puppy from their litter won BOW and BP at 6 months of age.

Tundra stayed at home and grew up, and grew coat, for the next few years. Once he had returned home from the US, I started planning his campaign year for 2005. And what a year we had! After 122 times of entering a breed ring, we won an exciting Best in Show at Canada's largest indoor show at Lower Mainland in B.C. in October, 2005, bringing his total to 5 Best in Shows for the year. In the 122 times we entered a breed ring in 2005, Tundra only lost the breed 10 times. Tundra's show record for 2005 includes 5 Best in Shows, 1 Reserve Best in Show, 23 Group 1st, 10 Group 2nd, 14 Group 3rd, and 17 Group 4th.

Tundra continues to enjoy life, although he'd much rather be in the show ring again.  Tundra is a sweet dog, very gentle with 'little people', and he LOVES puppies! His exuberance for life and meeting & making new friends is still talked about by his ringside supporters. He is smart, and is actually quite 'soft' in training - he doesn't take corrections well - he pouts! Tundra gives 100%+ when doing something he enjoys - especially when it comes to chasing gophers!


Tundra is available at stud to approved girls, and I also have frozen semen available to approved girls.
