Bloodlines
Mrs Jean Blandford - Flaunden
Jean has been involved with dogs all of her life and is a well respected judge having officiated all over the world.
The Flaunden affix produced 12 miniature dachshund champions in all three coats in the
1960/70's and 5 deerhound champions in the 1990's.
Put to Ch. Rosslyn Highlander (sired by Ch. Killoeter Onich), Ch. Flaunden Agatha Christie produced two daughters, both of whom we thought were extremely sound and of lovely breed type,
Ch. Flaunden Flora McDonald and Ch. Flaunden Betty Burke.

When it came to mating Stoorie, we asked Jean if there had been a dog in Flora and Betty's litter and discovered there was a male in a pet home in the North of Scotland. A mating to him produced the first Cotherstone Deerhounds. We kept a bitch from this litter Cotherstone Devil In Drag , who was then mated to a son of Flora McDonalds (ie. cousin to cousin) and this line bred litter produced the two champions we are currently enjoying great success with
Ch. Cotherstone Shot & Steel and Ch. Cotherstone Duchenne.

Mrs Nell McBean - Killoeter
Nell has the enviable distinction of holding both the dog and the bitch breed records with Ch. Killoeter Onich (37ccs) and Ch. Rosslyn Carric (40 ccs & Onich's Dam).
Both these records were set in the 1990s/2000 and will take some beating, if ever!

Another very experienced dog lady and respected judge, Nell bred Killoeter Lamlash at Aonachdubh (owned by Robin & Jan Cunningham) who is the sire of our Ch. Cotherstone Shot & Steel and Ch. Cotherstone Duchenne.
Nell has bred two other champion deerhounds.
