"Valor" is an exciting sire that we imported from Katrine Rahe in Denmark as a pup in spring 2013. We watched his dam, Snjös Blue Deera HXAc, compete in the Advanced class at the 2012 National Specialty, where she went Reserve High In Trial. (See more info on her below) Valor has proven to be a powerful young sire, producing progeny much like himself-confident, easy going and very trainable. A pup from his first litter, Spader I Found My Thrill UD CDX PCDX BN GN RN IPOBH HIC DS (owned by Terri Miller), won Obedience High In Trial at the National Specialty not once, but twice! Valor really stamps his pups with great minds, powerful working style, great conformation and the ability to always be in the right place at the right time.

Snjös Blue Deera HXAc, 2012 National Specialty
We really liked Xena's power on stock, outrun and genetic testing results (PRCD A, BAER Normal, great hip score), and afterwards made plans to secure a pup out of her in the future. The next spring, she was bred to a great male dog that we exported some years back, Edde Spader. We were delighted to get "Valor", a striking blue male from this litter. Valor is a very handsome dog, and is growing into a big dog with great movement. We really like his disposition and type, and are excited for his future. Valor is a really nice blend of confidence with a strong desire to please his handlers. He loves a game of fetch!
