Devin is quite a heartbreaker: a maghony sable sheltie with a big white collar and a cute diamond on his scull. He has a very winning temper and a lot of "ordinary" people (i.e. not sheltie experts) tells me that they think he is beautiful.
He is born 18/7-95, but has already done a lot in his life. Devin is the "stud" of the kennel - tried fatherhood for the first time as 19 months old to 4 lovely puppies. He is now the father of 7 litters (27 puppies).
In 1997 he became Danish jumping champion and in 1998 he obtained the rest of the titles that made him the first (and only) Danish sheltie to have champion titles in both show, agility, jumping and obedience (his great grandmum, Ofie, was the first dog in Denmark to have championtitles in all 3 disciplines: agility, obedience and show).
These achievements makes Devin the 4th generation of agility champions - which has never been seen before. What prevents us to have 6 generations of obedience champions, is that Devins mother, Celine, did not achieve this title yet.
In 1998 Devin took over the place of his grand mother (the world champion), Aiki, on the Danish national agility team. He has since then been to Slovenia for the World Championships where the Danish team took silver and to the Nordic championships in Denmark 1998 where they obtained GOLD and in 1999 in Norway to Nordic championships where they took silver. Devin was on the national team going to Helsinki in 2000 at Nordic championships and won team silver.
Devin became no. 3 in Danish championships in agility 2000
In 1998 Devin was rewarded as "Sheltie of the year" (the beauty contest) and the same year he was 4th in "Agility sheltie of the year" and as no. 3 in "Obedience sheltie of the year - class 3". This has of course never been achieved before.
In December 2000 Devin became second best male at the great Winner show in Helsinki - and obtained certificate and CACIB at the same time. This means that he can now call himself Finnish champion.
In 2002 Devin had the honour of re-gaining the title "sheltie of the year 2002" - just because we in 2002 had visited shows again to obtain our last Danish CACIB (which we did not get) but then we had 3 good placing that gave him the convincing place as no. 1 in the competition.
2003 has been an OK year for Devin. He became no. 3 in Danish agility championships - medium size. He was also on the agility team being no. 2 (in a tight match throughout the year) in the "agility team of the year" competition. He was lately qualified to the finals in the competition of "Obedience dog of the year, class" 3 under Danish Kennel Club. He became no. 2.
Devin has been selected to the National Danish Agility team for Nordic Championships 2003 in Helsinki.
Devin is available for breeding for suitable bitches.
Devin is the son of Celine.
