Delta is co-owned with Patricia Williams of South Australia. Patricia raised this litter in partnership with Gemcourt Kennels, but due to lack of room, she could not keep another dog. This was a lucky break for me and Delta came to live with me in Canberra.

Delta was always a handful to show, being quite head strong, but when she came together, she was stunning! She has done exceptionally well in the Showring, with some of her best wins being:-

Best Junior In Show - 2004 Dalmatian National Show
Multi Runner Up Best in Group awards (Group 2)
Class in Show awards
Multi Class in Group awards

In 2007 Delta produced a lovely litter of 13 puppies. I ended up keeping two girls from this litter as I could not decide between the pretty black spotted bitch (Bubbles) or the lovely Liver spotted girl (Jade) who just took my breath away when she moved! Both girls acheived their Australian Championship easily even though they had to constantly compete against each other for those points. Jade has excelled in the Showring with multi in group awards, class in Show, opposite class in National Show and Best in Specialty Show awards. Bubbles has excelled in Flyball as well and now also has her Flyball Championship!

Delta is mostly retired now living the good life lazing on the lounge, but may come out for some Veteran classes at the end of this year when she turns 7 years old.
