Australian Champions

 

 

AUST CH ARNDANE DEVIL INTHEDARK
(Australia's FIRST Correctly Marked Mantle Champion)
Sire: Arndane Awesum Inthedark
Dam: Hildydane Xaphire Queen

 

I am very pleased to be able to say that "Birt" -
Aust Ch Arndane Devil Inthedark gained his
Australian Champion title today (07/03/2009).

I am also very, very pleased to be able to say
Aust Ch Arndane Devil Inthedark is Australias
very first correctly marked mantle Champion.

Gaining your Australian Champion title is an achievement.
Every CC certificate that is issued states on it
"I am clearly of the opinion that this exhibit is of
such outstanding merit as to qualify for the title of Champion"
and the judge signs their name to the CC certificate.

Since the "Mantle" colour was accepted by the ANKC on 1/1/2007
there have been two "mantle" dogs/ and one bitch (Rorlyn,
Warpaint and Hildydane) who have gained their Aust Ch title and
my statement above does not in any way demean or denigrate
their Australian Champion title.

I am merely stating a fact.

To be able to state this fact I refer to the ANKC Great Dane
"Mantle" colour standard which states first and foremost:

Solid, black blanket extending over the body.

The three previous "mantle" dogs all had a break in their
blanket contrary to the Great Dane Mantle Colour Standard.

Congratulations Australian Champion Arndane Devil Inthedark,
Australia's first Mantle Champion!!!!

PIA IS NOW AN AUSTRALIAN CHAMPION at the age of 14 months!!!!!!
What a great achievement!!
PIA is a beautiful dane, true to type, very flashy - that head, that top-line,
those rear angles - all make for a magnificent
looking bitch who is an absolute credit to her breeder Leanne Arnold.

Pia is a beautifuly marked harlequin, moves like a dream, is very outgoing and has the
sweetest personality. Watch for this lovely young lady on the

Sire: Arndane Awesum Duco

Lucy was awarded Best Harlequin In Show at The Great Dane
Club of NSW Specialty Show, and is now being shown by Morgan,
who is 13 years of age.

Morgan and Lucy make a great team, Lucy's always calm,
patient and solid as a rock in the ring for Morgan.
This is a testament to Lucy's wonderful temperament and a
typical example of the great dogs bred by Arndane Great Danes.
Lucy is harlequin bred and "colour pure" for many generations.
