| Christine
began her breeding program in 1970 and since
that time has won about 100 Best in Shows on
Chriscendo Pomeranians. With a relatively small
kennel, usually less that 15 adults and about 6
litters a year she has been fortunate to breed
several outstanding dogs.
John became involved in
the showing and breeding of dogs in 1965. His
original breed was Pembroke Welsh Corgis of
which he bred several Canadian and American
Champions as well as the greatest winning Corgi
in Canadian history—a record that has only
recently been broken. John gave up breeding
Corgis to move into a successful handling career
from which he has recently retired. Chris and
John combine their knowledge and efforts to
breed the Chriscendo Pomeranians. Much of this
success has been due to the outstanding
producing ability of our foundation sire
Can. Am. Bda. Ch. Millamor's Rock Medallion.

As well as breeding
Pomeranians, Chris has contributed to the breed with her
artwork and articles. One of the highlights was doing
the artwork for the book The New Pomeranian
by Sari Tietjen. Another was updating the club logo for
the American Pomeranian Club. She & her husband John,
were also involved in the making of the Pomeranian video
for the American Kennel Club.She has also made a
grooming video for the Pomeranian Club of Canada Another
project was a series of articles entitled A Closer
Look, appearing in the Pomeranian Registry and
other Pomeranian magazines. Chris is currently involved
in her artwork, and devoting time working with the
Pomeranian Club of Canada.
All of our dogs are
participants in the genetic reaearch program currently
funded by both the American Pomeranian Club’s Pomeranian
Trust & the A.K.C.. We continue to send samples of each
successive generation to aid in this research. We also
support statistical pedigree research that may be
beneficial in providing more insight into the problem.
We believe that it is the responsibility of all breeders
to become involved in finding a scientific solution to
this problem. We hope that through informed, selective
breeding choices we will eventually eliminate the
problem from our breed. |
