Xander is from the first Cardi and Russet litter, and lives in Virginia with his co-owners, Ella and Al Mortimer. Xander has a wonderful personality and is a chill boy. He gets along great with other dogs and enjoys traveling, going to work with Ella, and his dog training classes. His owner has done an amazing job getting him out to many shows and working really hard with him.

He inherited his mom's stunning headpiece and was awarded 4th place at the 2022 Nationals for Head Type. Xander also competed at the AKC National Dog Show for the Top Ten Owner Handler event.

Xander won the Best of Breed and Best Owner Handler at the 2023 MASCUSA National Specialty at Purina Farms, shown by his owner Ella Mortimer. Judge Sulie Greendale-Pavez awarded Xander Best of Breed over the top specials in the breed. Xander also earned an Award of Merit under Judge Mr. Fred Bassett at the Parent Club Specialty. Xander and Ella were also invited to attend the Top 10 Owner Handler Showcase.

Xander has a strong and solid front assembly, ease of movement, and a nice amount of bone. He will be an asset to girls who need more substance. Xander is standing at stud in Virginia to approved girls. He has had a full Embark panel, which is clear. Please contact Kim regarding his stud services.
