We are extremely proud and excited that Kanyon has come to join our family here at Shombay!

Kanyon arrived from Mike & Linda Parke's on Monday 1st September 2008 and trotted into the house after a four and a half hour car journey, without a care in the world, making friends with the other dogs immediately! He has the most beautiful, easy going nature and is a joy to have with us here and has us in hysterics as he is such a clown!

His dam is 'Hassle' - Int & Ir CH, GB CH Veldtkammer Lady Done A Bunk JW, she is also the UK Breed Record Holder and his sire is 'Pansa' - FCI INT, IT & SPAN CH Shangani Pansa-Dafina.

Co-Owned with Mike & Linda Parke, Kanyon resides here with us in Herefordshire and is shown and handled by Rachel.

Here are a couple of his critiques:-
"1st Puppy Dog - dark red of top drawer quality, handsome all through, excellent head qualities which is masculine & well balanced, lovely eye & expression, excellent length in neck which has power & strength, good ridge & topline, he is forward in body development, stands on super bone & compact feet, on the out & back he showed excellent rear drive & good forward reach, his profile was a joy to watch covering the ground with such free flowing strides, in first class order & well handled. In the dog line-up he grew on me even more RCC & BP surely will have a bright future". Mr Martin Sanders Border Union CH Show 2009.

"1st Junior Dog - Lovely shaped head & eye, good front & tight feet, strong bone and in hard condition, good outline & excellent quarters, moved well RCC" Mrs Dianna Spavin Belfast Ch Show 2009.
