 Ch. Sylvan Evangeline SC, ROM-C

Vanna got a late start on serious showing, as she took more than half a year off to mend a badly broken hind leg. She won the Bred By Exhibitor class at the 1992 National Specialty, and won all of her points from that class.

In 1995, she was bred to the Specialty and Best in Show winning Ch. Tamarzi's Lord Oliver Grfalcon and presented us with 12 puppies. Shawn and Tammy (Cook) Smith joined as co-breeders, and we took turns raising each half of this second "Ch" litter.

They include:

Ch. Sylvan Chiaroscuro
Finnish Ch. Sylvan Checkmate
Ch. Monarch Chrystal Chandelier - Best in Show winner
Ch. Monarch Chieftain
Ch. Sylvan Chili Pepper 

Ch. Monarch Chantilly Lace

Her daughter Ch. Monarch Chrystal Chandelier, thrilled us by becoming an all-breed BEST IN SHOW winner, and was the top-winning bitch, and #2 Borzoi in the country for 1998.

Vanna was bred to our Ch. Cordova Mishkova Tundra, and whelped 7 puppies in October of 1997. Two have finished so far, and can be seen as the second "T" litter.

Ch. Sylvan Torchsong 

Ch. Sylvan Travertine - Group placing
