The name “Cordelia” means “heart” and ties back to her registered name and litter theme:  The Shout Outs. Cordie a/k/a "DeeDee" stole my heart early on – and around 5 weeks old I knew she was destined to stay. One of her nicknames is “small but mighty” because she is 21″ tall and 36.5 lbs. Her movement is a balanced and floating single-track with beautiful reach and drive, a correct tail set and she has a pretty and feminine head.

Her temperament is best described as perfection, she is eager to please, loves to cuddle but can turn it on for the birds or whatever I ask of her. She passed her Canine Good Citizen Advanced (CGCA) and with flying colors and earned her Trick Dog Novice (TKN) and AKC Championship (CH) on the same day! She earned her Junior Hunter (JH) in four straight passes with limited bird exposure.

Cordie is a natural in the field with a stylish point (can you see the bird?)

Cordie’s pedigree reflects holds a proven strength in conformation and versatility:

Her Sire “Beckett” (CH HRQ Ask the Expert JH ROM) finished his AKC Championship in a handful of shows from the Bred By Exhibitor Class, earning a 5 Point Major at his show debut (6 mos. old) and 4 Point Major in his second ring appearance (the same month). He later won Best Puppy in Sweepstakes at the 2012 VCSC Specialty in Pasadena. Beckett is a proven producer earning his Registry of Merit (ROM) Certificate in 2018, from three litters. 

Beckett’s Dam “Q” (BISS GCH CH Tivoliz Now Pay Attention, CD RN MH AX AXJ VC TDI ROM) can do anything she sets her mind to! She is a Best in Specialty Show Winner, Group Winner, Multiple Group Placer, Multiple Award of Merit recipient, and most recently won Best Veteran in Sweepstakes and Select Bitch at the prestigious 2013 Vizsla Club of Northern CA Specialty. Not just a “pretty face”, she also loves her birds and earned her Master Hunt Title and the Hunters Gun Dog trophy; in April 2013 (at age 7) she received a Judges Award of Merit in the Amateur Gun Dog stake with 26 dogs (a 5 Point Major). She is also titled in Rally, Obedience, Agility and Therapy. No wonder her nickname is “alphabet soup!”

Beckett’s Sire “Skoda” (CH Tivoliz Expert Witness ROM*), is a Top Producer for 2012, and has twelve (12) AKC Champions (from four litters) including a Best in Specialty Show Winner (BISS), along with several Winners/Best of Winners and Best Puppy in Sweepstakes at Specialties. I have met Skoda in person and besides good looks he has a faultless temperament, both of which he passes onto his progeny. He qualified for his Registry of Merit (see vcaweb.org) in August 2013 (*pending submission).

Her Dam “Zene” (GCH Moonlight’s Rock’n Ow’t, RN JH CGC) completed her AKC Conformation Championship with a 4 pt Major; earning the majority of her points from the Bred-By-Exhibitor class. In 2011, she also won back-to-back Best Puppy in Sweepstakes at the SCVC in Walnut, and VCSC in Pasadena. The day after finishing her CH title, she took back-to-back Best of Breed wins for two 5 Point Grand Champion Majors – and she made the cut both days in the Sporting Group; she went onto finish her GCH title with FIVE GCH Majors! She easily completed her JH (Junior Hunter) title and Rally Novice (RN) title.

Zene’s Sire “Rocky” (GCH/Can CH Captivatin’ Ain’t He A Knockow’t, ROM) finished his AKC Championship at 7 1/2 months old with 5 Majors in only 8 shows. Before age 18 months, Rocky was awarded several Best of Breed wins and earned multiple Sporting Group Placements — all owner handled! With relative ease, Rocky finished his AKC Grand Championship (owner handled) in August 2010. In December 2015, he received his Registry of Merit (ROM). Rocky sired five litters with four females. His offspring include two (2) Best in Specialty Show Winners, Multiple Champions and Grand Champions, Agility, Obedience and Hunt titled progeny.

Zene’s Dam “Csilla” (CH Tamaron Okos Piros Csillag, CD RN JH CGC ROM) is a proven producer earning her Registry of Merit (ROM) Certificate; she produced a Best in Specialty Show (BISS) Winner, five (5) Champions, three (3) Grand Champions (two others are Major Pointed), seven (7) Junior Hunters, and a Rally Novice (RN) titleholder; along with Multiple Best of Breed, Group Placing, Award of Merit, and Multiple BBE Group Placements. Csilla has consistently passed her faultless temperament and good looks to her offspring. She hails from a successful litter with siblings earning (Multiple) Best in Specialty Show wins, and a Best in Show.
