Leiborschy Ulsan Von Haunsperg SH CM , (Henrik) seeing such potential in a dog from our first litter we decided to retain co ownership of Henrik. He is owned by Diane and Keeley Newman Jones and has given Keeley a memorable time in the show ring. In May 2005 he was awarded the breeds first Kennel Club Show Certificate of Merit. His full, younger sister Yendah followed in her brothers pawsteps achieving the Sh CM in Nov 2007. Henrik has delighted us in the ring and the results speak for themselves Henrik is hip scored .He sired his first litter to Moricroft Makin a Splash in April 2008 and his second to Lanspar Reti Purge in May 2008.

In the summer of 2007 Henrik started a new life in North Cumbria . Diane removed her co ownership and Keeley now campaigns him as his owner. Sadly, in August 2008 Henrik died suddenly , just 6 years old.
