Kenya

AKC and Int Ch Roycroft Heartsong Kenya RN C-RN C-RA

Kenya is pictured above at just about five years old  She is a beautiful girl -- small, but solid and four-square; well-proportioned and nicely angulated; pretty head and sweet expression.  Below, Kenya is pictured as a graduate puppy on the left and a mature bitch on the right.

You see, a very pretty girl!  But actually I did not buy Kenya just because she is beautiful -- I bought her for her pedigree.  (Though I wouldn't have bought her if she'd been plain, I admit.)

Kenya combines Sanickro and Homerbrent lines and should be long-lived and healthy, not to mention a producer of puppies with those qualities.  Her father, AKC and CKCSC Ch Sanickro Enchanter at Heartsong, was a top-ranked dog in the CKCSC in 1999.  Enchanter never developed a heart murmur.  He lived to eighteen and was a producing stud dog until he was sixteen.  Kenya's mother whelped her at age eight and was heart clear at the time of her death a few years later.

Kenya has not been a good producer, but I hope that a son of hers will eventually be the cornerstone of my attempt to breed glamorous Cavaliers with outstanding longevity and vigor.
