Visa is more than just a show dog—she is the foundation of my breeding program and an irreplaceable part of our family. Co-owned with my dear friend Krista, Visa has brought so much joy into our lives, both in and out of the ring. I am incredibly grateful to have her and for everything she has contributed to our home and future generations of Schipperkes.

A Pedigree of Distinction
Visa comes from an extraordinary lineage of top-winning Schipperkes.
Her sire, Multi-BIS/Multi-BISS GCH Rivendel’s Barefoot Bandit “Colton,” was a record-holder with an incredible 44 career Best in Shows, making him one of the most accomplished Schipperkes in breed history. His impeccable breed type, movement, and show presence set the gold standard for the breed.
Her dam, Multi-BIS BISS GCHS CH Delamer Suzi Sells Sushi On The Boardwalk “Sushi,” was also a force in the ring, earning multiple Best in Show wins in the double digits. She exemplified the intelligence, drive, and structure that make Schipperkes such a versatile and eye-catching breed.
With such a powerful pedigree behind her, Visa carries forward the legacy of excellence that defines her bloodline.
Life at Home – The Wildebeest
While Visa is a star in the ring, at home, she’s our resident clown. Affectionately nicknamed "Wildebeest," she keeps us laughing with her goofy antics and larger-than-life personality. Whether she’s zooming around the house or demanding attention in her unique, mischievous way, Visa is always the life of the party.
Beyond her playful nature, Visa is also an amazing mother and even an auntie to all the puppies in our home. She dotes on them, teaching them manners while also showering them with love. Her nurturing instincts make her an invaluable part of our breeding program, and we couldn’t ask for a better foundation bitch.
Visa may not be shown frequently, but every time she steps into the ring, she reminds us why she is so special. More importantly, she is an irreplaceable part of our family, and we feel so blessed to have her.
