Whispering Girls
Dynestar Whispering A New Hope
Ch. Kell Renaissance x Apple Acres Fine Silver
"Leia" is White Factored and Bi- Factored and is a nice moderate 14 3/4 inches."Leia" has pretty, sound angulation and a gorgeous open side gait. Her elegant outline and pretty face adds a shiny wrapper to her sound body. And she has one of those sparkly, "look at me" attitudes to boot! "Leia" LOVES being a show dog and makes it an absolute blast for me in the ring - assuming she chooses to behave and doesn't have her own personal party!
"Leia" stands at 3 points after just a couple of weekends out. She's still just coating up and I'm excited to see her in action in 2010!
Eyes are CERF Normal, Thyroid TGAA Normal, and hips will be done in the near future.
A HUGE thanks to Leia's breeder and co-owner, Wendy Dynes (Dynestar Shelties), for sharing this wonderful girl with me!
Whispering Odyssey Infatuation
Apple Acres Odyssey Aquarius x Odyssey Obsession
"Crush" is possibly bi-factored and not white factored and stands at 15 inches. Crush has a beautiful soft, dark correctly set eye with a pretty face, ample bone and substance for her size, and carries a big plush coat. She is absolutely one of my heart dogs. She is terminally silly and always upbeat and ready for something fun. And she's ALL about her people. She's one of the most tuned in, biddable, eager to please Shelties I've ever met and she'd literally jump through flaming hoops if I asked her to. For me, that is what true Sheltie temperament is about.
"Crush" has a couple of Reserve wins from the puppy classes and will be back out in the ring after she coats back up and takes a turn in the whelping box.
Crush's eyes are CERF Normal, Thyroid TGAA Normal, and hips are pending. Crush is co-owned and was co-bred with Kim Watt of Odyssey Shelties.
Apple Acres Aloha
Ch.Apple Acres Odyssey Armani ROM x Apple Acres Tanzanite
"Maui" is White Factored and Bi Factored and stands at 14 1/2 inches. "Maui" has a gorgeous, sound body (beautiful shoulder layback, long upper arm, pretty bend of stifle) with an elegant outline. She's a bouncy, bubbly girl who is always ready for a party and LOVES attention.
"Maui" is from a litter I bred and was Locklyn Guzman's (her co-breeder) "puppy back" out of her mother. Locklyn very kindly offered to share Maui with me and thus she came back to Whispering Shelties. I absolutely adore this little girl and am so happy to be able to share her.
"Maui" is coating back up from a litter of puppies but will be out in the ring when her new wardrobe arrives.
Her eyes are CERF Normal. Other tests pending...
Odyssey In The Spotlight
Ch. Apple Acres Odyssey Armani ROM x Ch. Odyssey In Perfect Harmony
"Loreal" is White Factored and stands at 15 3/4 inches. Loreal has a sound body and beautiful open side gait. And, for me, is that once in a lifetime dog. She didn't have to work very hard to steal my heart. She is devoted and works hard to make sure that those she loves know how much she adores them. She'll never make it into the show ring (she has a big white body spot), but she has added A LOT to my breeding program and has proven her worth in the whelping box.
Loreal is the dam of one champion (Ch. Odyssey Kazon On Stage NAJ) and has another daughter (Whispering City Of Lights - who resides at Spring Valley Shelties) who is pointed with a couple of other promising kids on the ground. She also has a couple of kids with performance titles as well.
Loreal's hips are OFA Excellent, Eyes CERF Normal and she's VwD clear by parentage.
Odyssey Obsession
Ch. Apple Acres Odyssey On Parade x Odyssey In The Spotlight
"Peggy" is White Factored and Bi-Factored and stands at 15 3/4 inches. Peggy has one of the prettiest fronts I've laid my hands on with a beautiful shoulder layback and long long upper arm. She also has a sound rear, sound movement, and a beautiful, dark eye. Peggy is an absolute sweetheart with one of those devoted, biddable personalities that is what made me fall in love with this breed. She's quiet, easy to live with, and just a kind, gentle soul.
"Peggy" is one of those girls who has outstanding virtues, but a couple of small things that will keep her out of the ring. She has, however, proven herself to be an excellent producer. She has one champion already (Ch.Okie's Tie One On - sired by Ch. Okie's Black Tie Affair) and another pointed daughter (Odyssey Whispering Allure - who also made a deep cut in her class at the 2009 ASSA National) with several other kids in the wings who should finish.
Peggy's hips are OFA Good, eyes CERF Normal, and Thyroid is TGAA Normal.
Odyssey Kell Soak Up The Sun
Ch. Okie's Black Tie Affair (7 Ch's) x Ch. Odyssey Trimmed In Lace (3 Ch's)
"Velcro" stands at 15 3/4 inches and is an elegant bitch with beautiful angulation, a pretty, open side gait, and a nice lean, clean head piece. She has a stellar attitude and just loves life. She's a ton of fun and hard not to fall in love with!
Velcro is co-owned with her breeder Kim Watt and I can't thank Kim enough for keeping me in mind when she decided she'd be willing to share Velcro. I look forward to getting her into the ring - and I'm even more excited to see how she contributes to my breeding program. With both of her parents well on their way to their ROM's the pedigree speaks for itself regarding her potential as a producer!
Velcro's eyes are CERF Normal and thyroid is TGAA Normal. Her hips are pending...
