We are delighted to introduce our latest show prospect 'Flame', Bred by the succesful Nosferatu Kennels of Chris & Tina Thomas.
For quite some time now, I have quietly been on the look out for something special, we had in our minds the type of puppy we wanted to bring in, and also the lines that we so desired. We looked at many litters and their parents, but eventually just sat back and waited for something to catch our eye .... and it wasn't long before 'he' did!
I had seen many pictures of this young dog, but had never sat down and watched him ringside, and at Leeds 2010, I finally did so, from that moment on, I was hooked! 'He' being the awesome 'Ch Nosferatu Kickin Up A Storm' (Jonti) an upstanding male of superb quality and breed type! Just my cup of tea! Beautiful head and lovely shape, excellent rear and angles, he just melted me! Jonti has done extremely well in his show career with 3 CC's with 2 BOB and 11 RCC's. But its his ability to produce true to type puppies that really excites me, Over the last 10 months I have watched many of Jonti's offspring, and I love what I see. So when Tina told me she had mated Jonti with 'Ch. Sophie' my heart skipped a beat.
Champion Nosferatu I'm No Angel (Sophie) is a beautiful bitch who in her show career has done superbly well gaining 5 CC's with a BOB and 3 RCC's. She went Best Puppy In Show at Darlington All Breeds Championship Show in 2005, and finished the year as Top Akita Puppy. Sophie has more than proven her worth as a show winning girl, and her pedigree also excites me, her Sire is Ch Am Ch. Redwitch Heaven Can Wait, who is the Breed Record Holder with 42 CC's, and her Dam is Nosferatu Thundercat, a super sound girl who has 1 CC with BOB and 2 RCC's, who is also the full litter sister to the UK's first and only White Champion male to date 'Ch. Nosferatu Nemesis' both being sired by another favourite of mine 'Ch. Keskai Best of British'.
Flame certainly has HUGE paw prints to fill, but we are confident she'll manage it! She has so much potential, we look forward to getting her out and about later in the year. Our Thanks to Chris & Tina for taking a leap of faith, and trusting us with one of their babies, we won't let you down! |
