Am. Can. UKC Gr. Ch. Dayspring Romyldale Rowan

(Am. Can. Ch. Barwoods Impact ROM/ROMC x Dayspring Wind Chimes)

Rowan was an incredible first show dog. Not only is he beautiful, but he has the charisma and showmanship to make even a novice handler (like me) look good in the ring. Many thanks to Cathy Witzke, Mary Householder and Debbie Blazek for their help in handling Rowan to his American title. Rowan's exceptional front assembly, flowing side gait and beautiful (yet masculine) expression were his greatest assets in the ring. Rowan was champion number seven for his prepotent sire, Am. Can. Ch. Barwoods Impact ROM, sire of thirty one champion offspring. Rowan has seven Best of Breeds (three from the classes), a Group 1 (to finish!), two Group 2's and a Group 3 to his credit (American and Canadian combined). He has sired only four litters producing Am. Can. Ch. Romyldale Rory MacRorie and Can. Ch. Kincardine's Captivation.

Take a close look at the wallpaper on this page. This photograph was taken the weekend Rowan earned his UKC Grand Champion title at twelve years of age. Rowan is growing old gracefully here at Romyldale. He is the undisputed top dog and still possesses that ardent soul that endeared him to me from the very beginning.
