Vader is my little dark horse and she comes to Ehana from Shareen and Glen of Caleebra Lapphunds.
I met Glen a number of years ago in Darwin and was dumbstruck when I discovered he knew Finnish Lapphunds and even more so when he told me that he and Shareen bred them. I made contact through their website and told Shareen that I would *eventually* be looking for another puppy. Fast forward the beginning of 2016 when Leah, who was driving down to Victoria to visit her beloved Alleria and puppies, offered to give me a lift. I’m so glad I accepted as when I laid eyes on Vader it was love at first sight. We cuddled for hours and she seemed so content to just stay in my arms, I was truly smitten.
I (rather impatiently) awaited the assessment results for the pups hoping and crossing everything that little Vader might be coming home to me so when I finally got the phone call from Shareen, I shed a few tears of happiness!
Vader is solid black with a tiny little tuft of white fur on her chest with tan spectacles and toes. She is a very well put together girl with some lovely angulation, a gorgeous sweet expression, nice movement and a coat I just can’t help but marvel over. She is a little pocket rocket, always pushing the boundaries trying to see what she can get away with but then making up for it by giving kisses and nuzzling her way in for a cuddle. She is incredibly intelligent and knows how to work the system, if she doesn’t want to do something she won’t and will make a point of telling you how much she doesn’t want to.
Vader loves her food, any and all of it which makes it very easy to get her motivated and switched on. She also loves her ball, a lot, and has been known to collect all the balls in the house and hoard them on her bed, a trait I hear she shares with her aunty Squiggle. Vader has such a happy go lucky personality and even though some of what I say might fall on deaf ears, she is submissive towards people and just loves to please and be involved in whatever I'm doing.
She is already making her mark in the Show ring around NSW taking out a number of BOB’s against much older competition. In an attempt to show up her brother Ryker, Vader earned herself the honor of being named not only the Finnish Lapphund Club of NSW Opposite Show Dog of the Year but also walked away with the FLCNSW 2016 Best New Talent award, a well deserved win for my little black beauty.
Vader gained her Australian Championship title on the 12th June 2017.
She is a joy to watch grow every day and I just cant wait to see what her future holds.
