Oban came to us as the result of our quest for a suitable male for our Eden (Ch. Delirious Gates of Eden) We wanted sperm from "Starline's Reign On" or from Reign's son "Starline's Sovereign". Thanks to Lori Lawrence (Starline) and Dani Jacobsen (Sunbeam) we were able to import a Sovereign son; Oban.  His mother is Fendi, a sister to Ch. Starline Chanel, the top wining whippet in the US at the moment. Oban has many lines to the whippets we admire and with him we hope to continue our breeding plans.
 

Oban made his showdebut by winning Best in Show at the Junior and Veteran Specialty 2010 of the Dutch Whippet Club, BOB puppy at the International show in Wijchen & the title Reinland Jugendsieger at his first show in the junior class under breeder/judge dr. T. Munch! At the show in Oss 2011 he won his last junior CAC to become a Dutch Junior Champion at the age of 13 months! He also has 3 CAC's towards his "adult" Championship (he needs for 4), but he can't finish until he is 27 months old. In July 2011 he won the last junior CAC te become a German Junior Champion!

In the late summer of 2011Oban stayed in America for a short show "holiday", where he was exclusively handled by Lori Wilson.

NEWS FLASH: Oban finished his American Champion title within 2 months of showing!

In the spring of 2012 Oban came home. We are so pleased he did so wel in America and want to thank Lori Wilson, Lori Lawrence, Dani Jacobsen & Donna Lynch for all their help along the way! Without you it woudn't have been possible.

 

Now Oban is home, where he will stay. He finished his Dutch Championship in aug 2012, just after 27 months age requirement! And he also won a few German CAC's, but has to wait one year to finish...

 

 In the capable hands of Timo & Kirso Aalto (Whiptals whippets) he finished his Finnish & International show title in his first 2 shows!

Already a senior, he enjoys his life on our sofa.

 

Oban gained his coursinglicence so he can participate in coursingevents. A film of a coursingtraining:
