The “B Litter” produced 7 wonderful pups, 4 black pups and 3 silvery fawn “tervs”. In that litter, Bebop Du Volant is training in french ringsport and is expected to title with his FR brevet and FR1 in the next couple of months. B’Rumba is smokin’ fast in agility and giving border collies a run for their money. B’Keera is very driven and pretty, is training in agility and obedience and showing in conformation taking a reserve on a 4 pt major in her first show. She has been rehomed and doing great. “B Rapper du Volant” is also super fast in agility with excellent agility titles in AKC agility and an incredibly beautiful jumper and lives in Las Vegas. The temperaments are very social and stable with lots of drive. The silveryTervurens (registered with AKC as bsds) are gorgeous and in pet homes and are not worked but the drive and ability is there.
“Chittaspread Jairam du Volant," from the C litter, has been training in SAR since a young pup. He is spirited, social and full of himself. He made the Portland OR news channel at 1 yr old when he directed his handler, Tracy Wessel, to the specific spot that 2 boys drowned while the water cadaver dogs were on boats and indicating the general area. This litter, following the San Diego fires in Oct 07 produced only the one pup, but the ultrasound at 30 days, showed a full litter. I believe this related to the stress of the fires and the ranch was an evacuation center for many animals and people. Jairam has developed into a very elegant boy with a lovely long neck, great angulation and long, flowing gaits. He is very driven in his work, trails in both urban and wilderness environments, loves to bite, highly food and toy motivated, has high prey drive, and a breathtaking vertical jump. He is social to all people and good with other dogs. Has a lovely "off" switch around the house. Has developed into a dog that is very easy to live with in the house, yet is a lot of dog on the job.
“Disco” has been a consistent producer of wonderful temperaments, great structure, well muscled dogs with strong athletic ability, great movement in litters from Orsam and Uvar. The temperments have been 100% solid, full dentition, scissor bites on all pups. All of the ones that have been xrayed have shown Good hips and normal elbows and eyes cerf’d. All of her pups are happy, very tail wagging pups.
Planned breeding for pups in early 2010 B’Keera du Volant, likely line bred to a stud out of European breedings, line bred on Orsam.
Orsam de Salte Cabre has produced quite a few French ring and mondio ring titled dogs, some of these youngsters are competing at the FR3 and MR3 levels in Euroope. He has also produced dogs titled in IPO and other protection sports. He’s produced working police and search dogs. Orsam has the true character and strong nerve of a good working dog. He exhibitis the great qualities of strong working malinois and the “thinking” and intelligence the groenendael is so known for. Gallery of offspring coming soon!.
Disco has littermates in Europe competing in agility and sister Bejaydunia was on the Swiss world team (agility) in 2006. Sister Bejazzadunia, owned and handled by owner/breeder Guy Blancke has had many wins with lightening speeds. Brother Brittadunia achieved his Sch BH, sch AD and trained in IPO until the family had to move away from the area where he had training, but Britt showed much potential in IPO. |
