to Chancery Belgians. I
purchased my first Belgian in 1979, Ch Lorjen Rising Star (photo
to right). "Mandee" was her name. Mandee
was everything that I hoped for. My
first litter was co-bred with Maxine and Roger Ellis, which
carried their kennel name, Lorjen. From that first litter (Ch
Inselheim's Shades O'High Mount x Ch Lorjen Rising Star) came
some recognized dogs which I am very proud of: AM/CAN Ch Lorjen
Heir Apparent CD HOF ROM CGC HIC, AM Ch Lorjen Hawkmaster HOF,
AM Ch Lorjen High Honors CD CGC HIC, and AM/CAN Ch Lorjen High
Hopes HIC CGC.
"Hope" was the daughter that I kept from my first
breeding. (Scroll down for photos.)
I wanted
to base my breeding on soundness of structure and temperament.
With limited breeding in the past 25 years, I am proud
of their accomplishments. I am now on my 6th generation
of breeding. The future has become promising as we look
forward.
I now
reside in Nazareth, Pennsylvania with my husband of 12
years, Mark. We have 2 children, Mark Jr who is 9, and
Leeanne is 6 years old. I have taken a few years off of
active showing to have and raise my children.I have realized
what a valuable part the dogs have become to the family
and what a true family companion the belgian is. It is
a true joy to watch the dogs play with our children. The
children are a big part of our dogs' and puppies' socialization.
We hope
on the next few pages of my site you can enjoy the dogs
too. Please, if you have any questions I will happily get
back to you by email. |
