Marricdale The Gold Digger of Dalamanti (Chelsea)

Chelsea is 2 years old bred by Maree Kenyon of Marricdale Dalmatians.
BAER hearing tested & DNA profiled. She is a liver & white bitch with a
lovely character and is maturing beautifully and has so far had a successful
showing career. She has already won numerous Best Of Breeds, Utility Group 2,
Utility Group 3, Best Puppy in Breed & Utility Puppy Group 1, Best Puppy in Show,
and Best in Show, and best of all Reserve (4th) in Limit Bitch at Crufts,
an outstanding achievement considering she is just 2 years old.
The more shows she does, the more she enjoys it so long may her success last!
She also completed the Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme with a Gold award,
with lots of hard work from both of us she passed on her first gold test at just
10 months old! This is a brilliant achievement for a dalmatian especially as
concentration isn't always there! I owe I huge thank you to Alison, Roy and
Jacquie at Northumberland Canine Centre for all you have done for me and Chelsea.
We couldn't have done it without you!

Malibu is my first home bred addition to Dalamanti. Born 11th May 2010 from a litter of 10.
BAER hearing tested normal. She is the daughter of Chelsea and Polo, and turning out to be
very much like her dad already. We have started puppy training with her and she is learning
very quickly. She has just passed her puppy foundation training and will be going on to do the
Kennel Club Good Citizen Bronze award next.
Although her spots are late coming through they are looking great now and our ringcraft practice
is also coming along very well. We are looking forward to November when she comes out in the
show ring for the first time, hopefully alongside her litter brother Riley owned by Nigel and Emma.
She will make her first entrance to the show ring in November, hopefully to follow in her mum's
footsteps, so watch this space!
