Aust Ch Montkristef Where Theres Fire at Coppertop

“Zander” came to us from our good friends Pat Bullivant & Trevor Hamilton after loosing my young boy “Kaden”.  His Mum is Ash, a daughter of Callum & Selene bred by us & her sire is Eros, Supreme Ch Ebondobe Eternal Fire, a multi Best in Show winner.

Zander has a fabulous pedigree, amazing temperament & is such a lovable clown, a typical happy dobie puppy.  He is a substantial boy, as dobermann boys should, & already appealing to judges beating much older competition accumulating points & well on his way to his Australian champion title.

Zander won Best in Show & Puppy in Show at the Qld Dobermann Open show June 2024.

Zander titled at 10 mths of age with a Runner-Up in Group under international judge from Latvia

Awarded his first Junior CACIB at Spring Fair 2024 & graded “Excellent”

Zander is Vwd “CLEAR”, DCM 1 & DCM 2 “NEGATIVE”

 

Baby in Group Winter International S.A 2023

“Kaden” is a Bridie & Kye son born December 2022.  He is full of energy & personality so together with his sister “Keely” they make a great pair & great company for each other.  Dubbed the Special “K’s” due to their extra special parents & their achievements so we hope they will follow in mum & dad’s footsteps.

Sadly Kaden died on the 9th July 2023 after eating some bedding even though he was at the vets very quickly.  He endured 2 botched surgeries & then admitted to Casey emergency but devastatingly could not be saved.  We are all devasted!!

 

Baccara was born in Brazil & spent sometime in USA before arriving into Australia in June 2021 aged 15 months. He has a very sweet nature & loves all our dogs & our grandchildren.

Baccara has a great pedigree with many beautiful dogs for several generations which will bring some much needed new bloodlines into the breed.  Above all he is the most fabulous temperament.  He will happily play with any dog of any breed & absolutely loves kids.

He has been health tested & results available on request. Available at stud to approved bitches.

“Kye” is owned and loved by Dianna Argy and Angela Mundy in Canberra, ACT.

A multi-Best in Group and all-breeds Best in Show winner, Kye took out his very first Best in Group win at the tender age of 7 months. He titled easily in 2019 and is now well on the way to his Supreme championship, having won more than the 10 required Best in Groups to qualify.
October 2019 Kye took out Runner Up Best in Group at the prestigious Victorian Women’s Club show, from an entry of more than 260 dogs under Dobermann specialist Mr B Henderson (Ireland).
Kye has been very successful at speciality level too. Winning his class in show at all specialties entered (bar one). He has won an all breeds Best in Show & 2 Best in Show awards at Dogs ACT Utility specialty shows, and a Best in Specialty Show at the Dobermann Club of Victoria’s Open Show in 2018.
In 2019 Kye is the Australian Capital Territory’s #1 show dog all breeds, #1 utility dog and within the top 10 Dobermanns nationally (DOL).
2020 began well for Kye winning Best in Group Canberra Royal & to date accumulating 7 Best in group awards, bringing his total to 20. One very proud moment was Best in Show under renowned dobermann specialist Mrs Denise Smith, Ebondobe Dobermanns (Qld).
A great start to 2021 at his only shows Kye has won: Runner-Up in group Canberra Royal, challenge dog/RUBOB Sydney Royal & Best in Show NSW Dobermann specialty.

Callum aged 10 months

Best in Show DCSA June 2022

“Callum” is the most sweetest natured boy one could ever hope to meet. He is loved by everyone who meets him.

He began his show career at Easter 2019 & from there has amazed us with his fabulous results. In just 4 months & competing against his stunning half sister Bridie, accumulated over 350 points which included 4 x Best exhibit in group, Runner up Best Exhibit in show & Runner up in Group plus numerous class in group & in show awards & Best in Open Show all breeds at his first show in Qld, where we stayed for the winter months. Up to November 2019 he has massed over 600 points & 8 Best in group awards at just 15 months of age.  I believe the best is yet to come for this amazing young man.  After cancellation of all dog shows in March, Callum needs just 2 more groups & less than 200 points for his supreme title.  We look forward to getting back in the ring to finish off this prestigious title.

After a 10 month lay off December 2020 saw us do a trip to SA & Callum picking up group #9.

Callum gains his final group for his supreme title & then onto win Runner-up Best exhibit in show then backs it up with another group the next day….. So proud of this very handsome & adorable boy!

Callum is only shown occasionally now but will be seen at all the specialties where he always seems to leave his mark!

Sydney Royal

Rob and I are absolutely owned by Josh, he is bossy and very demanding, but also a big smooch who loves nothing more than to climb up on my lap, uninvited of course, and is the love of my life.

Josh at 4 months

Josh had an interesting start to life being presented at birth as a stillborn and left wrapped in a towel on the table to be buried. However, due to the inquisitive nature of a young boy who noticed a slight gasp, Josh was revived with mouth to mouth and vigorous rubbing and slowly he began his awakening into this world, something we are eternally grateful for.

Josh’s first show lesson

Josh has had a fabulous career so far with lovely wins as a baby through to now in the Open Dog class. These include specialty class in show and Runner-up in show win & Best in Show Qld in May 2009, plus numerous Best of Breed and Best in Groups wins not to mention the obedience title, endurance title and more recently his Tracking Dog title, all gained along the way and of course siring several litters and of course the best one of all his Grand champion title.

Josh has an amazing temperament, a very easy going boy who is friendly with all the canine girls and boys he meets and being a people dog too he is a pleasure to take out to any event.

Josh has been shown only a handful of times in 2008 and like his daughter Kendra has picked up challenges/Best of Breed at almost all shows. His limited showing has been due to us campaigning 2 of his sons, Nasa and Saxon, to their titles.

We will now begin the task of attaining his grand champion title, a title we believe he deserves to be given the chance at.
