Raine competing in Veterans - May 2011

Raine was the first champion of my breeding. He is a such a big, sweet, goofy boy, and loves everyone. This sweet, easy going temperament was proven when he was one of the first Dalmatians in Australia to pass his Temperament Test. In fact, the President (Mr Carl Herkstroeter) of the American Temperament Test Society Inc, said after he assessed him, that he had the perfect Dalmatian Temperament!

He obtained his Championship title easily, beating older, champion dogs regularly. Some of his wins in the show ring include:-

* Runner Up Best in Group (Group 2nd),
* Specialty Class in Show,
* Multi classes in Group (All Breeds),

He obtained his Australian Championship title at 20 mths of age and his Endurance Test title in 2004.

He has 4 Champion offspring. To see puppies sired by Raine, CLICK HERE

Raine is now retired from the showring except for the occasional Veterans class. I also hope to get him back in the Obedience ring this year and get his CCD Title.
