For her second litter, Nova went to Minnesota again where she was bred to Thor (Canadian/American/Dutch CH Flat Castle's Olympic Torch). Again we were helped by Leonie Galdermans (Swallowsflight), Traci Spires and Wayne Heikes (Shannara). He is a direct descendant of the best British lines, particularly with his great grand-mother Maddy (Waverton Medeira), who gave to the breed the 2003 Top stud dog in England, Waverton Toby Ale, a liver dog. Thor completed his Canadian Championship in two week-ends in April 2007 and his American one in 3 trials on June 23 2007. Eight puppies were born on July 9, all healthy (5 males and 3 females).
