A Litter

Whelped May 9, 2008 – 1 M
Sire: MSBIS Am Ch Po Dusham Royalist “Tory”
2008 #1 Borzoi in the United States, 2008 BCOA BISS, multiple group winner and placer.
Dam: SBOS Am Ch Zabava Mimosa, JC* “Tochka”
2007 PSBC SBOS, 2005 PSBC BOW, 2004 BCOC RWB, 2003 BCOC Best in Puppy Sweeps)

Both Tochka and Tory were very special Borzoi with many fantastic wins and a great number of beautiful famous dogs behind them.  When we saw Tory, we knew it was a match made in heaven.  We will always be grateful to Tory’s owners Fred Edlin & Ron Williams (Ridgeside Borzoi), Tory’s impeccable handler Rhanda Glenn (Reflections Borzoi) and Tory’s breeder Alice Lloyd Merrit (Po Dusham Borzoi) for making this exciting breeding possible.  The only regret we have is that there was only one puppy!  This was our seventh litter and the second outcross since our very first litter.  Tochka and Tory do share some influential common ancestors, namely, MSBIS Ch. Crescent’s Arctic Glacier, Ch. Majenkir Sandstone, Ch. Majenkir Artisan and MSBIS Ch Majenkir Charade of Jantar.  Each of our litters is given a letter after an ancestor’s call name. Since the puppy’s pedigree includes Artisan, Arctic Glacier, Arctics and Aruba, we thought it would make sense to make this one our A litter.  We saw this litter as adding some new and old ingredients back into the stock.  Both Tochka and Tory had beautiful side gaits, outlines, correct tails full dentitions, scissor’s bites, plus they both were memorable dogs that possessed unmistakable ring presence.  Their son is very special, too!
