History of the Silverglow Kennels

I have been building the Silverglow Pomeranian bloodline since 1980, and the Silverglow Chow Chows bloodline since 1994.
I have owned/bred 30 champion poms, and bred/owned CC/BOB/RBOB/Group Placers and also a "Best in Show" 1st and placings.
I have owned/bred 6 champion chow chows as well as CC winners and "Best in Show" placings.

For more information please contact us.

 I have been involved in dogs since I was 13 years old.
 I lived at that time in Northern Rhodesia, (now Zambia).
 I first did obedience work with my 2 cross breed German Shepherds.
 When I married my husband in 1970, we bought 2 registered German Shepherds and
 I became a member of KUSA, I bred and showed the dogs.
 We moved to Botswana in 1974 with our daughter Arlene,
 where my youngest daughter Tracey was born.
 I had my own quarantine kennels.
 I started an obedience school training the local people’s dogs,
 as there were no clubs or dog shows.
 I did this for 6 years while we stayed in Botswana.

 We then moved to Margate in 1980 to live on my father’s plot.
 While there I decided that the girls were old enough to have a dog of their own.
 I was looking for a toy poodle breeder, when I stumbled on a breeder of small dog.
 There were loads of them I found out they were called Pomeranians.
 I bought the girls one each, and when the dogs were old enough to go into the show ring,
 I told the girls to take them into the ring.
 Later on when collecting the girls they told me that the one pom,
 FAIRWINDS DOMINIQUE OF SILVERGLOW had obtained several first’s and a cc.
 Well I thought that beats running around the ring like a fool,
 and looking like a limp rag at the end of the day,
 I decided to rather breed and show pomeranians.
 After several bad buys not knowing what to look for I decided to buy 2 poms,
 an orange bitch NOWENDS MINDY OF SILVERLOW
 and a black/tan male NOWENDS BRIGHTSTAR OF SILVERGLOW,
 from a lady leaving Southern Rhodesia (Zimbabwe). 

 The dogs parents were out of some very impressive old UK HADLEIGH lines,
 the dogs themselves were a little bigger than what was being shown in the ring,
 but still lovely specimens.
 I bred them together and Ch. SILVERGLOW DONNA was born, a beautiful cream/sable,
 she took the show scene by storm and was a Champion at 12 months,
 obtaining a 2 point cc at 6 months.

 I had only been in the breed, and show ring for 2 years, I was thrilled to have done so well.
 NOWENDS BRIGHTSTAR OF SILVERGLOW gave me 2 more Champions
 Ch. SILVERGLOW ELFAAN GEM, and Ch. SILVERGLOW MUSIC MAN
 brother and sister litter mates, they were made up in 5 shows.


Champion Silverglow Cherry Blossom

Champion Silverglow Zandra Zoe

Champion Silverglow Cassius Carlo

  I then bought Ch. MONILENE CHINKY OF SILVERGLOW a lovely cream.
 he was a Champion at 12 months, the first KUSA NATIONAL POMERANIAN,
 at the first KUSA NATIONALS, winning 4th in the Group finals.
 He also won many All Breeds Best Veteran in Show’s.

 In 1986 we moved to Kempton Park, in South Africa.
 Ch. MONILENE CHINKY’S daughter Ch SILVERGLOW TINY SNOWDROP also won a 2 point cc.
 At 14 and half years old, she won a cc, best of breed and went on to win BEST VETERAN IN SHOW.
 She also won many other BEST VETERAN IN SHOWS at all breed shows before she died at 15 years.

 I bred Ch. MONILENE CHINKY OF SILVERGLOW to Ch. SILVERGLOW DONNA.
 unfortunately, she was only 3 years at the time, when she died having a caesarean.
 The resulting male SILVERGLOW YURI CHARM was a little too big to show, but was a lovely specimen.
 He was the father, of Ch. SILVERGLOW IVAN THE GREAT OF BROWDEEN,
 who was the father of Ch. SILVERGLOW CASSIUS CARLO,
 who was the father of Ch. SILVERGLOW ADORABLE ALEXIS,
 Ch. SILVERGLOW PEGASUS PAUL OF DE CHATALET and
 Ch. SILVERGLOW KOBY CASSANOVA OF TRISHCA.

 The latter was the father of Ch. CAROLERA BLADE OF DE CHATLET.
 SILVERGLOW YURI CHARM was the father of Ch. SILVERGLOW GARNET OF SUNRAY
 who was the father of Ch. SILVERGLOW GRACEFUL LADY OF DE CHATALET
 and the grandfather of Ch SILVERGLOW GISELLE GINA.

 I did very well in the following years with a very limited amount of showing.
 To improve my bloodlines I used a lovely red dog imported from Canada,
 (Ch. ZIM) (Ch. USA & CAN) SHARIAN ROCKIN ROBIN OF TINYTOT on two of my best bitches.
 Ch. SILVERGLOW ROSE PETAL a daughter of Ch. MONILENE CHINKY OF SILVERGLOW,
 she was also grandmother to Ch. SILVERGLOW PEGAUS PAUL OF DE CHATALET.
 SILVERGLOW YVONNE’S DREAM, a daughter of the imported Canadian dog,
 although not a Champion herself she produced 5 Champion’s.

 In 2005 I bought a stud out of SA.UK and USA bloodlines, ANJULA MARKUS AT XANTAH
 he produced Ch. SILVERGLOW ZANDRA ZOE who in some very stiff competition,
 from the puppy class, become a Champion at 18 months.
 All her awards have been almost exclusively obtained by overseas judges.

 Great news was that Ch. AUS. Ch. FIN. SILVERGLOW TINY TIM OF EBERDENE was exported to  Australia.
 While he was in Finland he was made a Finland Champion, in a few shows,
 thanks to the well known Finland breeder Esa Ruotsalainen.
 While in Finland he was mated to SILVERGLOW KARINA KATEY who produced 4 pups
all of which are Champions and the one bitch is now a International Champion and Top Dog of Finland
and other countries.

 Esa imported a male puppy from me in 2010 who is out of ANJULA MARKUS AT XANTAH
and SILVERGLOW SHINNING SHEREE, DAUGHTER OF Ch. SILVERGLOW GISELLE GINA.
 I wish him all the best and look forward to the pup becoming a champion.
 
 TIMMY is now in Australia and in a few months was made an Australian Champion
 winning multi Best of Breed, multi Group’s and multi Group Placing.
 
 I am looking forward to getting a puppy from Ch FIN. Ch. AUST. SILVERGLOW TINY TIM OF EBERDENE
 and SILVERGLOW KARINA KATEY.
 
 We started 2009 with Ch. AUST. CH .FIN. SILVERGLOW TINY TIMMY OF EBERDENE’S son
CHAMPION EBERDENE BLADE OF GLORY OF SILVERGLOW.
 At nineteen months he became a champion, winning 5 c.c, and 3 Reserve Best of Breed,
 and obtaining a excellent at a FCI show, all by overseas judges, 
 He is a beautiful cream.

 His half sister EBERDENE RHAPSODY IN BLUE OF SILVERGLOW has 3 R c.c. 1 cc and a Best of Breed.
 She is a dark blue, the only blue’s in South Africa.
 
 Ch. SILVERGLOW ZANDRA ZOE has a lovely dark red boy ,

I am pleased to say that I have completed my exams for the UTILITY AND TOY GROUPS and have passed,
 so will be able to judge at Champion shows in 2012.
 In the meantime I am judging at open show level the HERDING AND HOUND GROUPS.
 I have passed all my reports for HERDING AND HOUND GROUP’S and can now do my part two exams this year
 and hopefully after passing I will then have four groups that I will be qualified in.

 In 2012 my husband of 43 year’s, after contracting a bad dose of flu, passed away in a few weeks.
 He was on a ventilator,  and a kidney machine and had had emphysema for 13 years, due to smoking.

 I decided to sell my plot in Vereeniging, and have bought a new plot in Benoni.

  I have decided with great sadness to give up the chows. Unfortunately I am unable to care for them properly,
 as I have been  diagonised with type 2 diabetis and find I am now too tired and too weak to control the chows,
 as age progresses.

  I have done some judging in 2016 and my up and coming new show bitch
 Silverglow Angels Jewel has won a best in show and numerous other awards.
