Tanze
Adara Ridge Tempean Tanzanite was born May 17, 2021 and is a ginormous bundle of energy! She is AKC and WBBA-registered and earned a first place gold medal in her age class at the 2023 WBBA Conformation Show! (she got bronze at her first event in 2021 and silver in Spring 2023). Tanze also took silver in her age class at the 2024 Boerboel Expo. This girl has gorgeous top half conformation and an absolutely stunning head. She weighs in at around 110lbs. and stands nearly 26″ at the withers. Tanze comes from a long line of amazing farmstead working dogs (predominantly Blackwell/Mizpah) that are healthy and live a very long time. She has a ton of drive, but is very trainable and eager to please. I expect great things from her. Tanze passed her OFA echocardiogram, has OFA excellent hips and normal patellas, but one mild elbow. She had her first litter of pups (13 of them!) in Oct. 2024, with Onyx. I am currently planning two more breedings with her. Tanze has also had Embark DNA Health testing done. https://ofa.org/advanced-search/?appnum=2367896 http://embk.me/adararidgetempeantanzanite?utm_campaign=cns_ref_dog_pub_profile&utm_medium=other&utm_source=embark
Zora
Oozora (formerly Olga) is a beautiful, athletic fawn Mastiff girl, born September 8, 2018. I acquired her from Stacy’s Mastiffs & Corgis (Rochester, IN) in 2023 and she has whelped a couple of litters already. Zora is a very energetic girl that loves to play and hump, but also has a very sweet and cuddly side. She is a smaller girl, standing 26 1/2″ at the withers and weighing around 120lbs. Zora has thrown only 10+ pup litters so far, and she didn’t disappoint in Nov. 2023 with a litter of 12, out of Theo. Zora followed up with her final litter of puppies (12 again) in Sept. 2024. Zora has been OFA and GenSol DNA health tested and passed hips, elbows, patellas, and eyes. Certificates and radiographs available upon request. https://ofa.org/advanced-search/?appnum=2221254
