Compass
Renaissance Stones of Iron

            SBIS Ch. Ontime Red Sky at Night  ex  Ch. Renaissance Normandy Coast 

Compass sings the direction of my heart.  She is an intelligent, strong, sweet girl.  She plays mother to our puppies, both Silken Windhound and Borzoi, and is a constant source of entertainment and affection for our family.  She is just a few points shy of her LGRA title, and only 1 point short of her breed Championship, having one four and two three point majors.  I am so gone on the temperament and intelligence of this handsome girl!

Dharma is a lovely girl that Kitty Sawyer of Katz Borzoi was kind enough to share with me.  My plan for Dharma was also a "victim" of our personal circumstances, so she hasn't been able to get out and show much.  Thanks to Kay Cassela of Borzoi On Konza Prairie, who was kind enough to take her for a while and got her to the 2007 RMBC Specialty.  There Dharma showed her quality, going RWB with stiff competition under breeder/judge Jon Steele (Auroral).  I hope to have her out more in the coming year.   She has movement to die for, and a temperament worth living with. 

Corvette
Renaissance Seas of Silence
     

SBIS Ch. Ontime Red Sky at Night  ex  Ch. Renaissance Normandy Coast 

Sister to Compass, Corvette is a gorgeous intense red, with too much coat and body.  She is a power mover - a trait she got from her dam - and has a beautiful head and expression - from her sire.  She is a lovely sweet companion and a hard headed brat who never quits trying to crawl, most sweetly, into your lap.  

Naya
Renaissance Lady of the Lake

Ch. WindNSatin Komazuar  ex  SBIS Am/Can Ch. Virshina Renaissance Topaz FCh CD CGC 

Naya was a very slow maturing girl who is just now coming into both her body and her adulthood.  She is full of joy and when she smiles and laughs at me she reminds me very much of her dam, Taz.
