| Dam: Ch. Yashanti's Adagio v Silber Wald (Ada) OFA Excellent GSC-2530E24F-T Thyroid-Normal Features: The most impressive thing about Ada's appearance is her incredible and unusual substance. She represents the standard of the GS as it outlines a dog that is a larger, more robust version of the standard schnauzer. Often when people go over her they respond... now that's a Schnauzer! With substance often lacking in the breed she has much to offer. Ada is not only substantial but she is also short bodied, square and very muscular. She has an outstanding front end, forechest, and depth of chest as well as a lovely rear. Her eye is dark and sharp- the hallmark of the giant expression. Ada moves like she is floating on a cloud traveling ever so effortlessly, sound and correct. Ada is a sweet, quiet lady yet she has a powerful presence like that of royalty. Tho she is always respectful of others she really just enjoys being with her family and seldom cares to make a big deal of visiting with strangers. She will be friendly and after awhile decide that the affection of visitors appeals to her but she really is fulfilled by being near those she loves. Ada too is incredibly intelligent often learning new tasks in a matter of seconds and with only one simple demonstration, She desires to express this intelligence and delights in working and playing with her loved ones in any sport introduced to her. She is ready to be titled in novice when she is back on her feet. Ada is also an outstanding dancer with an extended trot that can only be described as breathtaking. Ada finished her championship in real style having won both her majors at specialties. Each were 5 point majors and the one time she competed in Puppy Sweepstakes she won Best Puppy. To top that all off she won a Group 3 out of the puppy classes at Salisbury, Maryland in 1998. |
