Stella has come to us from Ataraxia kennels, she has been our introduction to the dog show world. We have already enjoyed many successes such as Bitch Challenge and Best of Breed at large Metropolitan shows, Class in Group wins and her greatest achievement to date:-

" Bitch Challenge and Opposite Sex of Breed at the 2007 Brisbane Royal Show"
Stella was awarded a 17 point Challenge from the Puppy Class having only just turned 9 months old the week earlier. It was quite a special occasion for us as the "Brisbane Royal Show" is one of the biggest Royal shows on offer in Australia. A win at a Royal Show is one of the most highly regarded achievements for any breed in Australia.

Stella's mother is Aust Ch.Ataraxia Calais (IID)
who is the daughter of the great 'Signore Kwan De La Seigneurie Des Chartrons (France)'. Having recently had the pleasure of meeting Signore in the flesh, I am assured that the careful planning and linebreeding undertaken by Deborah will definately be an advantage for us through Stella in the future.
Signore is a magnificent dog, who is a sight to behold.
I admire those who have great motivation to seek the best producing lines world wide

Stella displays many good attributes expected from this combination of Calais to Bakervill's Style Valton (imp Ndl).
She is a well proportioned, low set bitch with a strong front and good bone for a bitch.
She has good strength in head type with correct trapezium shape, broad muzzle and prominent stop.

Stella's best asset is her movement. Her gait is straight and true both coming and going and displays powerful reach and drive.
Stella is a very animated dog with a keen independance. She is the leader of the pack at home and she is an absolute joy to be around with her cheeky character and bucket loads of personality.

She has been Eye tested with clear results.
As we had hoped, her health tests are excellent, we can now start planning a future breeding program.
