QUARRYBRAE LITTLE JEAN 2nd

"Jeannie" was my first sheltie obtained from the late Mrs. Laura Getty of Quarrybrae Kennels. Jeannie crept into my heart and instilled a love of the breed that can never be erased. Jeannie was pointed, but because of my lack of experience, never finished as a Champion. However, several of my later conformation champions and obedience titlists find her in their pedigrees. Jeannie became the champion of my heart.

Delamantha:

BIS BISS CAN/AM CH DELAMANTHA'S DESIDERATA

I first met "Sheba" when she was being campaigned in conformation by her breeder, Carol Watt. At that time, I was still a novice and struggling with my own dogs. When I laid eyes on Sheba for the first time, I instinctively recognized a truly great dog. The way she posed and the way she moved indicated to me that here was a sheltie as close to the breed standard as was possible. Carol and Sheba were a perfect team. I was delighted that Sheba had a son, Ch. Delamantha's Daybreak (ex Ch. Calcurt Luke) to whom I could breed my beloved Jeannie. Carol became my mentor and friend who gave me direction for a breeding programme. Sheba became the visible standard against which I measure all my dogs to this day.

DELAMANTHA'S DEAR BORN

Pictured is "Shasta", a "Sheba" daughter that I was fortunate to be able to lease through the generosity of Carol Watt. Shasta was sired by Ch. Sunbriar Black Sabbath, a Sheba grandson. Shasta was eventually bred to Ch. Delamantha's Daybreak, a Sheba son, to produce "Dusty" featured below. Shasta is pictured at 4 months. Unfortunately, no other picture of her exists.

CH ROWANGLEN'S DEAREST WELCOME CD ROMC

Through the generosity of Carol Watt, I was able to lease a Sheba daughter for a limited time. "Shasta" gave me "Dusty" pictured here. Dusty was my first Champion and became the foundation of the Rowanglen line. In Dusty I had the strength of an illustrious ancestry and a promising future. Her pedigree tripled the qualities of her grandmother, Ch. Delamantha's Desiderata, whom I idealized as my living standard. Dusty also excelled as a producer and gave me six Champion offspring. Rowanglen stock has since these beginnings produced more ROMC, BIS, BISS, BPIS, and HIT offspring. View Dusty's pedigree.
