Willa was Best in Sweepstakes at the Oregon Specialty Show, and took back to back major show wins at the Puyallup, Washington shows in Januray 2005, both from the 9-12 puppy class. Willa finished easily in Canada, and was a multiple group winner at only a year of age. Willa is energetic, busy and loving. She wants to be on your lap one minute, doing tricks to cadge treats the next, and swimming after geese in the lake in the blink of an eye. She doesn't much like the show ring and so she wasn't a career girl beyond getting her championship.

Willa was bred to Ch Parador Duke, a Rudy grandson on the other side, sired by Ben. Duke is a Canadian show champion but he never sought an American career, and he lives the good life in Ladner. These pups were born on February 19, 2008 - and from this litter I kept Rylie (Ch Parador Syringa)

Willa was also bred to Am Ch Kempfer's By A Landslide JH (Sly) and produced eight lovely pups in February 2009. From that litter I kept "Tory" (Am/Can Ch Parador Serengeti) and pick male puppy went to a lovely family in Winnipeg, that pup being "Talis" (Ch Parador Talisman)
