SIRE: Ch. YanKee Parader ROMX
DAM: Am/Can BISw Ch. Markwright's Promiscuous ROMX, 1988 KCA Select
WHELP DATE: 06/12/1991
BREEDER: Donna Stekli + Kathryn Stekli-Barker
OWNER: Barbara Cobean + Donna Stekli

Delilah was a very "special" girl from the time she was a baby. She had that something extra in her attitude and carriage that said "look at me!". In a litter of 6 girls + 1 boy, Dee was a stand out!

Barbara Cobean had put in an "order" for a special girl and Delilah was hers from the start, although, as a breeder, it was very hard for me to send her on that plane across the country to Seattle. She was a keeper.

Delilah did some early winning as a puppy, beating much of the north west competition easily. Her handler was Sherrill Kennedy, as Barbara didn't like going in the ring herself. Dee proved herself to be tough and competitive, finishing #2 Kees Show Bitch for 1993, right behind her 2nd cousin, Am/Can Ch. CopyKees Ashwood Alliance.

Dee has excellent carriage, up on her toes, nice length of neck, cobby, good color, silver undercoat and stands at 17" tall. She is one of the most excellent female kees I have had the pleasure of having my hands on, let alone, responsible for producing.

Dee was sent out to A*starz in 1995 to be bred. She produced a lovely litter of four pups on 07/03/1995. Two of these pups, Candee and Julian, are American Champions. Their brother, Robbee, is a Danish Champion and Spitz Club Dog of the year for 1996.

Dee, in her golden years, is a proud grandma with puppies born in 1998 out of her daughter, "Candee", that are impressing the kees world, most notably, her grandson, "Marcus" Am/Can BISw Ch. A*starz Patriot. We are truly thankful and proud of Dee and her contribution to keeshondom with her best attributes being passed on.

Delilah is happily retired at home with Barbara. Dee rules the roost there and will always be the queen.
