AUST. CH. BIRDRISE ZIGS IMAGE 1985 - 1998 "Tristan"...was our introduction to the breed after admiring his father Aust. Ch. Valache Von Siegfried. He surpassed our expectations as a great show dog and companion. He committed our love for the breed. Tristan was a prolific winner gaining well over 1000 challange certificates points and was an All Breed and Specialty Best In Show winner and a Multi BIG winner. During his show career he obtained 25 points CC's in 4 States of Australia and won 7 consecutive Best In Group at All Breeds level which still stands as an Australian breed record.Tristan sired 6 Champions from limited stud work and now further down the line many winners are lucky to bare his name in their pedigree.Tristan was a dog which comes along once in a lifetime and we will never forget him.

AUST. CH. VALACHE SILK STOCKINGS 1990 - 2003 "Elle"....was the foundation bitch for Sevoier, the selection for this job was made easy being the daughter of Valache von Hildegarde, herself an excellent producer and litter sister to Aust. Ch. Valache von Sigfried QC. During Elle's show career she was awarded many Best of Breed and Best in Groups at All Breeds level, including BOB at one of Australia's largest shows The Royal Sydney Show in 1995. Elle's elegance and strong breed type is evident in all her progeny and grand progeny, producing several champions from selected breeding. Elle's daughter Aust. Ch. Sevoier Cacharell is an All Breeds Best in Show winner and one of her son's Aust. Ch. Sevoier Levante who is also an All Breeds runner up in Show winner. Elle's youngest son Aust. Ch. Sevoier Carsten has also done extremely well winning several age class in show and a Runner up in Group.

AUST. CH. STRADIVARIUS RENAISSANCE (IMP CAN)  1990-2000 "Reuben" Created history in his own lifetime! Since his arrival in Australia in 1991, Ruben fulfilled our hopes and expectations of his fabulous pedigree. Graded excellent as a junior dog at the 1991 GSP Specialty under Breed Warden Dr Albert Lemmer, one of the foremost authorities on the breed and then onto Runner Up In Show over the well performed bitch Ch Trupoint The Deviate. Although not used extensively, his litters have produced a remarkably high number of quality and well preformed offspring in each litter of note, with valuable breed characteristics evident...short firm back, proud carriage and strong sound movement...plus a natural hunting ability of great worth to rough shooters and competitive triallers. Reuben's progeny have to date been awarded more than 41 titles, 31 are bench champions, 14 of these are Group 1st winners, the remainder include a Retrieving Trial Champion, a Dual (Obedience and Show) Champion Obedience Non slip and Track titles. He is a credit to his breeder in Canada, Jean Pierre Turgeon. Reuben is now #1 GSP Sire of all times in Australia. Co-Owned by Valache, Sevoier and Durers Kennels.

AUST. CH. SEVOIER CACHARELL 1995 - 2007 "Calla"...was an elegant daughter of Aust. Ch. Valache Silk Stockings and was an All Breeds Best in Show Winner. Quote from 1998 GSP National Judge - Mienicke Mills de Hood - Wittekind Kennels ex UK now living in France. "Beautiful outline. Well angulated. Lovely neck. Lovely topline. Good long head. An excellent bitch clean all round. Nothing coarse about her. Hazel eyes, only two and a half years old. Moves well. Correct bite and full dentition and grading excellent." The area Calla excelled in was as a dam. Under the Valache prefix to Aust. Ch. Stradivarius Renaissance (Imp Canada) she produced an outstanding litter, Aust. Ch. Valache Amarige, Aust. Ch. Valache Oscar Dela Renta and Aust Ch. Valache Cerrutti. Calla's last litter to Aust. Ch. Hillanhi Hakan (Imp UK) also proved very successful with Aust. Ch. Sevoier Makin Majic, Aust. Grand Ch. Sevoier Magic Happens ET and Aust. Ch. Sevoier Cast A Spell. Giving her 6 Australian Champions who have themselves produced many quality puppies. Calla will be sadly missed. Calla was co-owned and handled by Anne Raymond at Valache Kennels.
