           I first showed a Miniature Pinscher for a friend    Russia Alkahest Kleo and immediately fell
           back in the early 90’s and at that time had no      in love!!! Pat kindly agreed to let me use Kleo
           desire to get one myself as I was too involved      at stud when he was old enough. This mating
           with showing my Dobermanns. Many years              produced 3 puppies, Boris won 4 green stars
           later after judging a beautiful Miniature Pinscher   while he was being shown, Ivan is at home with
           owned by Sinead Kenny I booked a puppy              me, a bit tall for the showring and also very shy,
           from her for my Grandson. Eventually I got          and finally Ruby, who was the only female in
           Clanreh Ananya with Assisi who was born             the litter.  I had promised a friend that I would
           in 2010 and her sire was Sinead’s Russian           give her disabled son a female puppy as he
           Import Multituli Annegin and her Dam was            wanted a small dog and even though I only had
           Ch, Int Ch (CiB) Dobenar’s Amazing Grace.           one female I couldn’t go back on my promise so
           Little Chanel won 3 green stars at the age of 6     unfortunately didn’t get to keep Ruby myself. I
           months and was also Celtic Junior winner 2012.      did however get to handle Ruby (pictured above
           But unfortunately she decided that she didn’t       with me) in the ring for a couple of years and
           like showing, and besides that my grandson          two years later I repeated the mating and my
           preferred the Dobermanns, Min Pins were too         little `Angel’, Assisi Fallen Angel Jun Ch, was
           excitable for him.  After a few years I saw Pat     born.  As I had been unsure if Chanel would
           Quinns new puppy that she had imported from         have another female puppy I had decided to
                                                               import a female from the Alkahes’ kennel. Little
