BIS CH. CRYSTARIDGE'S HALLMARK
OVC 004225 H and E
Pedigree

Cody is Number Three GSD in Canada for 2000 ---
without the help of a professional handler, and all within a very short distance from home, with his best friend, Maria McDonald, who has put up with all his silly male nonsense for the past three years. Maria has been the "wind beneath his wings".


Cody - Best In Show
Cody - Best in Show! May 25, 2000

"Cody" was born July 9, 1997 and was placed in a show home at 4 months. The Dog God was looking after us when he was returned to us in March, 1998 as a gangly adolescent.

Two months later he went to his first show here and went Winners Dog. He finished easily at 13 months, in August, 1998, always either Winners or Reserve, and achieved a Group Second the next day out of Specials.

For the year 2000 Cody has had a Best in Show and has had eight GROUP FIRSTS and has placed in Group in all but three shows where he took Best of Breed.

Cody

His first litter, out of Ch. Crystaridge's Ariel CD, was born on June 9, 1999.

At her next show on March 15, nine days before turning 8 months, she finished her Championship and followed the next day by going Best of Breed over Specials. All three days that weekend she went Best Puppy in Group. She picked up her sixth Puppy Group at the end of March.



As a puppy - February to July, 2002, Danni achieved 5 Best Puppy in Show, 15 Best Puppy in Group and numerous Group placings.

    15 Best Puppy in Group
    5 Best Puppy in Show

An amazing record for a puppy whose first Birthday was July 24, 2002

As an adult from March to October, 2003, Danni achieved 7 BEST IN SHOW and multiple Group Placements.  She finished the year as NO. 1 GERMAN SHEPHERD and NO. 4 HERDING DOG IN CANADA.

We are so very proud of our girl and now look forward to her abilities in the whelping box.  She is certified Hips and Elbows.

Ch. Crystaridge's Major Attraction
Max's dam is "Desi" Ch. Crystaridge's Desiree

Max is Danni's 'kid brother'.   With very limited showing Max has achieved two Best Puppy in Group and two points as a puppy.   He went out in May, 2004  and completed his Championship, going BOS over Male Specials at just 13 months of age   We are thrilled that Max got a very low hip rating, under the Australian system.   A perfect score is ZERO and his hip score was THREE!.  
 

After his 30 days in Quarantine, where he won the hearts of all the staff,  Max went 'home' to join his family at  Pam Tyler's Kezziah Kennels.  The pictures below were taken the first week that Max went 'home'.   WHAT A GUY!!!!!!
