This family starts off with an unregistered bitch called Miss Perfection. She was born in about 1897. Unfortunately, there are no other details about her except that she heads this family which is still going on today with two blue merle bitches being shown. Further research has shown another line with a bitch being younger than the other two bitches.
This became a huge family of very well known bitches, especially during the 1970 to 1990 period when the breed was very popular with very large show entries and Kennel Club registrations. It seems very strange that there are only one or two bitches born in the last few years should be left for the family to carry on.
In just four generations from Miss Perfection we come to a bitch by the name of Edel Excellence born 17/3/1906. And no, she was not an Eden. But most of the early Eden’s came down from her as she was the dam of several Sonnenburgh dogs and bitches that were very prominent in the early 1900’s. she is important because not only does she carry on this family line she is in just six generations the paternal granddam of the very famous Ch Glenack Kingfisher who was born in 1927.
This bitch is also of great interest for us as she was the dam of two bitches owned by Barbara’s Grandfather when he became interested in the breed just before the First World War. One was a bitch he bought in called Bel Ch Horthfield Princess. She was a Belgian Champion sired by probably the greatest winner the breed has ever had Ch Squire Of Tyton. He was unbeaten at all the shows he attended in this country; he was then exported to the States where he continued his unbeaten show career.
Edel Excellence was the first in this bitch line to have puppies producing other puppies to continue the line. She was the dam of two Champions, the aforementioned Bel Ch Horthfield Princess and her litter brother Bel Ch Horthfield Model. They were both by a dog called Master Willy who was a very popular sire at this time probably because his sire was the great Ch Anfield Model and he did not inherit his sires extreme nervousness.
She was also the dam of another bitch owned by Mr Tom Anderson, Barbara’s grandfather. This one was called Kennington Kitty. Kennington being his Kennel Prefix at this time. However, I suspect that he had her name changed as I have another bitch on the database called Branston Kitty with the same breeding. Edel Excellent’s bitch puppies failed to carry on the line for more than a few generations other than the next in this family line[JB1] Sonnenburgh Symphony. However she is very important because of the males that came down from her.
