My
beautiful Cody came here to Kalnovitch as a member of the much widely
anticipated "Silvertips Secret 7" litter in 2003. This same litter
produced one Grand Champion (also a Specialty BIS Winner) and two other
Champion boys (one of them also a Specialty BIS Winner). Cody stepped
foot in the ring as a baby puppy (winning back to back in show awards)
and never looked back, winning countless Puppy/Reserve of Group awards.
He was a multi qualifier for the 2004 Pal Puppy Supreme awards.
Cody also won at Best of Group level, and did quite well at the
specialties as well, winning Dog CC and RBIS under Debbie Parker in
2005.
Cody is now
semi-retired, his exuberance and zest for life and being out in the
showring made showing him always quite the grand event. He gets
soooo excited that he just couldn't possibly keep all four feet on the
ground, or couldn't possibly show without his "crouching tiger, hidden
dragon" act where he crouches slightly, before jumping all over me or
leaping off to race me around the ring! Showing Cody is always rather
theatrical, full of big "Cody sighs", full of screaming ringside if I am
handling another dog. Judges either found his exuberance quite
charming and they loved it, or they didn't find him that amusing at all!
Cody sired a
litter to Kaitlyn (BISS RBISS CH Kursharn Nova Kaitlyn), producing
Nessie (CH Kalnovitch Ultra Wicked Ness) and Teddy (Kalnovitch The
Wicked Sinner). Both progeny have had some great success in the
ring, and both definitely carry the "Cody stamp".
Cody's theatrics
extend to home life as well. He is extremely well behaved, but
there are days when Cody just doesn't feel like doing what he is told.
He will grudgingly do whatever he is told though, usually complete with
a "Cody sigh" - the "oh what a chore, what a chore" sigh! Cody
races me to the shower each morning, and Cody tries to stick like glue
to me when I am home. I think that Cody believes that if he lived
in a world of just moi and him, it would all be just wonderful. I
am sure it would too, there certainly wouldn't be any dull moments!
I am so
extremely grateful that Jude McCormick of Silvertips allowed this
gorgeous boy to come to me. I love Cody to bits and could never
imagine being without him!
