Celeste
Pedigree

Céleste is the first born puppy from my Nova. She is the 'scandinavian side' of Knightcastle. She is exactly the type of dog I was looking for with this litter : the quiet temper and skills of her mother Nova, and the exuberant side of her father, Bowie. She is my 'action girl' and probably my best dog!

On November 17 2006 in Ottawa, on the day after her first birthday, she obtained her Canadian Championship ( CH ) by being 'Best of Breed' against 3 adults. I always handled her, twice making the final cut in the 'Sporting Group'. She is my second home-bred Canadian Champion.

On April 21 2007, in 3 concecutive trials, she earned her first obedience title ( CD ) and o
n her only trial of the year, she earned her first hunt title ( WC ) on September 8 2007.
Working with me and having a duck in her mouth, these are the things that matter for her ! She is also a great swimmer and tracker ! On February 15 2008 in Carp (Ontario), she earned her second obedience title ( CDX ), it took her only three trials to achieve that, her lowest score was 194. She also has one major in the US for her american championship. On June 22 2008, Céleste quickly completed her Junior Hunter ( JH ) title.

On September 12 2008, Céleste gave birth to eight puppies from her breeding with the beautiful Exel. This is Knightcastle's second generation. Performance people, breeders, hunters and those who simply wanted a new friend came to me for that litter. It was the 'King Arthur' litter.

Since March 2010, Céleste and her daughter Holly are now 'Therapy dogs' with 'Therapy Paws of Canada'.

On May 16 2010, Céleste, who was 3 weeks pregnant, completed her UD title ( OTCh ) in Peterborough under the same judge than her mother, Cheryl Bishop. She is my third UD dog but the first dog that I train alone at this level. She currently has two OTChX legs but we took a long break from competition due to a leg injury. Now she is back on track and she completed her Canadian and American Rally novice ( RN ) in autumn 2011.

On June 24 2010, Céleste gave birth to nine puppies from her breeding with superstar Roman. This is the 'Great Movie Stars' litter, her second and maybe the last one.

She is a stylish female with a very beautiful head. She is also very curious and she doesn't miss a thing, especially an airplaine, the moon or the shadow of a bird flying by ! Have to tell you a secret: she is my favorite one !
