Illy is the first born puppy from the Koffie en Thee nest at Suaralayn Kennel from Janneke de Graaf. She is the only tricoloured daughter from the half African male Fulani And female Aoide. Illy is owned by her breeder, Janneke de Graaf, but co-owned by us. She will remain available for breeding at Suaralayn and we are so excited she is allowed to live with us!
During the planning of this litter, we were allowed to be involved every step of the way. From the selection of the Sire to the honour to be there when the puppies where born. In addition, Marieke had the opportunity to puppysit 2 days a week so she really got to know and observe the puppies and their development. Each and every one of the puppies from this litter hold a special place in our heart.
An elegant appearance with a strong sense of justice and a mind of her own. Illy loves to run, play, wrestle and snuggle with Beau, Finlay, Maeva, Aoide, Mirtillo and Mazzer who we see on a regular bases. Illy greets her canine and human family with a tiny yodel and a huge wiggle. She is completely content if she can lie next, or on top, of you beneath a blanket.
We passed the puppy course, obedience basic, obedience continuation and obedience advanced with almost perfect scores. After that we did a short course Rally-O, we really liked doing this but it was to pass the time until Illy could start with Agility. We have been doing this with great pleasure and success since the end of summer 2020. Every lesson is great fun for Illy and Marieke. As a team they also participated in their first Agility Competition and obtained the 3rd place!
The Agility training is even more fun because we train together with Maeva, Femm, Finlay and Mazzer.
Illy is easy to motivate and enjoys working together! She is very social and has good communication skills, which she shows during her training, but also during walks and on dog shows.
We started showing in the youth class, in which Illy obtained some wonderful successes. She became BISS Baby at the German Basenji Clubshow 2019, Best Junior Bitch/BOS at the IDS Bleiswijk 2019 and Best Junior Bitch/Res Best Female at the Christmas Winner Show in Gorinchem 2019. This show also awarded her with the Junior Winner 2019 Title and a Crufts Qualification for 2020. During the IDS Martini Dogshow, Groningen, Illy became Best Junior Bitch/BOS and this was her last point to achieve the Dutch Junior Champion Title. After this show the covid-19 pandemic hit us and we where unable to show again until the summer of 2021. Illy is fully pointed for her Dutch Championship Title but can only activate this title after winning a show when she is older than 27 months. Illy competed in the Open Class at the International Dogshow Maastricht and became Best Bitch and BOB, thus obtaining her activation point for her title. She may now call herself Dutch Champion.
She has also achieved considerable success on the racetrack. She was the fastest Baby during the Basenji CavomRen, Oude Pekela and fastest Junior Bitch during the Tonda Cup 2019, Velp. She also obtained the 1st place in the Open Female Class during the Tonda Cup 2020! On the track she is a real speed devil with an acceleration that amazes many.
Currently Illy and Marieke are having a lot of fun participaging during International FCI Agility Competitions at Level 1. And not without success, Illy obtained two 1ste places and one 2nd place during the International Winner Show 2022 Agility Competition.
We are extremely proud and honoured that Illy was allowed to become part of our family. We are very much looking forward to her developments, which we will share here, and enjoy her every day! We are currently planning her first litter for the winter of 2023/2024. More information about Illy's litter can be found on the page of Illy's breeder Janneke de Graaf from Suaralayn Basenjis.
