What can one say about such an incredible dog ?  He was just exceptional.  Thank you Judy Russel for sending him to South Africa.  Storm Czar definitely set the standard for quality Sibs then and now.

He accumulated so many wins that it is difficult to remember them all.  He was the first Sib to win a BIS in South Africa.  He accumulated over 100 BOB,  Multiple BIS,  Epol  Supreme Dog of the Year,  the Working and Herding Dog of the Year (twice), and in his old age Veteran of the Year.

A Special moment for me was his last show weekend at age 10 when he went BOB from the veterans class on to Group 2 and then Best Veteran on Show.  What a way to end his show days ! 

Storm Czar sired some of the great dogs in our breed in Africa.  Through himself and his progeny they founded a linage still to be found in many kennels of current time. 

In harness he was really good.  He was a natural born leader ( in those days he taught us about sledding.  We put a harness onto him and off he went in lead and we never looked back ! )  He worked in harness right through his life and was always a super athlete - think that is one of the reasons that he aged so well.  He had a great nick name here, people called him "the Pocket Rocket".  I think that says it all.  We were very fortunate to have been able to share our lives with him.
