Kristopher

February 18, 1988 - December 16, 2003

This page is a tribute to a very special dog.

Few breeders have the privilege of producing an exceptional dog like Kristopher. We may be lucky enough to get a show dog, but it is a special gift when you produce one of the great ones. Kristopher certainly was one of the great Yorkshire Terriers. He not only surpassed the record of his time by winning 20 Specialty shows, but he achieved many other honors along the way. An added gift was that he was a top producer, leaving his own distinctive mark on the breed. We were truly blessed to share life with this little soul; a soul that captured hearts around the world.

Kristopher’s accomplishments were many. He was always handled by his breeder and owner. When he retired from the show ring, he traveled with us everywhere and spent every night in bed with us.

"He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion” (author unknown).

Kristopher’s record includes:

• 20 Specialty show wins, including 6 National Specialties and 5 back to back wins.
• 3 All Breed Best in Show wins.
• 36 Group Firsts with 154 total group placements.
• 207 Best of Breed wins.
• Best of Breed at Westminster 1993.
• Pedigree Award Winner 1991, 1992 and 1993.
• YTCA Top Winning Yorkie 1993.
• YTCA Stud Dog Award 1995 & 1999.
• Sire of 60 Champions (including Specialty show winners, Group winners and several All Champion Litters).
