He's so beautiful, I had to put in another picture! Dietrich is also serious competition in the showring. Together Tara and Dietrich finished #9 Great Dane in Canada in 2007 (unofficially at this time), and will be back in the ring occasionally in 2008! They are pictured here with judge Kathleen Guimond, November 2007.

NEW CHAMPION ALLYNDANES ELECTRA

Introducing Allyndane's 50th Canadian Champion - Izzy! - ... daughter of Zen (see 'Stars' and 'Future' pages) and Odin (see below). Izzy is owner-handled by our breeder friend Jan Edmunds of Libertesse Danes. Izzy finished in a big way, typical of Allyndane great danes, with a Best of Breed from the classes, over three specials, and topping it off with a Group 3! Thank you to admiring judge Skip Stanbridge for this exciting finish! We hope to have the finishing picture on display shortly.

ALLYNDANES I KAHN BE YOUR HERO

O D I N

Our very handsome Odin is loved too much at home with Sylvia and Dave to spend time travelling to dog shows ... we are just as thrilled with his contribution to our future by siring Zen's first litter - the "super hero" babies, two of which are already pointed from their puppy debut!

CH. BLACKSTRAP FULLMOON FROM THE ASHES

A X E L

We'd like to introduce you to Allyndane's 'grandson' AXEL. A son of our 'Luna' (full sister to Zen, Denzel, Faith and Tangie), Axel came to Calgary where he is loved and trained (beautifully) by Kirsten. Kirsten was generous enough to let me play with this big puppy in the show ring - where we were unbeaten! In four straight shows we garnered WD/BW (3pts), WD (2pts), WD (2pts) and WD/BW/BP (3pts) to finish from the senior puppy class! Kirsten and Axel are now sharing adventures in agility and obedience, and we look forward to cheering them on!
