Star is truly a star here at Nyrakym/Samaljankan kennels. She is intelligent, sound and a real show-off with effortless movement (just like her Mom and Dad!). Star was bred to Mr. Wookie in the spring of 2003 and had one puppy - Skye. She's a real chip off the old block! Star has also showed much promise as a hard working sled dog and
Jari has big hopes for her in harness in the coming years.
Star
finished her Canadian championship before reaching 12 months of age &, first time out as a special, at just 12 months of age, she won a Group 4th in a very competitive working group. She
qualified for the AMCC Top 25 event in 2002 by coming in 8th place overall (males and females) in the 2001 AMCC top Malamute standings. Using the AMCC ratings (for number of Alaskan
Malamutes beaten in conformation competition) she was the 3rd placed female
in Canada and the top winning female in the Mid East area (covering Ontario [East of Thunder Bay] & Quebec) in 2001. In 2003 she once again
qualified for the AMCC Top 25 event despite very limited showing. She finished her championship in the US with both majors won at Specialties under breeder judges. The first was awarded at the New York/New Jersey AMCA Area Specialty in October
2003 and the second at the AMC of Wisconsin Specialty in July 2004. In 2005 she once again placed (Group 3) in a very competitive working group, on her only outing in Canada.
