Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself to do the thing you have to do when it ought to be done whether you like it or not. It is the first lesson that ought to be learned and however early a person’s training begins; it is probably the last lesson a person learns thoroughly.~ Thomas Henry Huxley (1825-95)British biologist, championed Darwin’s theory of evolution
This is our first homebred Canadian Champion Ryu’s Darwin, and we call him Darwin. He was born 13-March-2004 from Ch. Miskela’s Connecticut Yankee 
and Miskela’s Tony The Tiger. 
Darwin is OFA’d Excellent, Elbows normal, eye clear and Thyroid normal range. He has matured into an handsome 14 inch dog, with moderate bone, small head and a resilient and drivey temperament. This boy is retired and enjoying life on the sofa here at Agile Shelties. He is from my first home-bred litter. 
DARWIN: THE MAKING OF A CHAMPION!
Darwin showed under judges Mr. A Kazmierski, Mr. A Bennett, and Ms. Carmen Haller, with (me) breeder, trainer, handler & owner Renee Hughes, at the Renaissance Dog Association Show at Heritage Park, Chilliwack B.C. Canada. I called this video ‘Fancy Moves’… you’ll see why… no handlers where harmed in the making of this video.
Yes – the judge pointed to Darwin for Best of Winners AND Best of Opposite!
