Dara was Ashley's 18th birthday present. Dara is a daughter of our CH Sting and we saw a lot of him in her. She was born on lucky 8/8/08--one of 8 puppies in her litter! Her name has everything to do with the date of her birth--the 2008 Beijing Olympics started that day (and 8 is the Chinese lucky number). Dara Torres is an US Olympic swimmer who won the gold medal, so Dara was named after her in the hopes that she would grow up to Go For The Gold also. Dara is an excellent show dog, she loves being in the ring with Ashley. She was completely owner/handled by Ashley to her championship, which she finished on Aug. 31, 2013 with a 5 point major. Along with finishing her championship she also has two Best Puppy In Specialty wins.
After 2 litters Dara is now retired and lives a great life in California.
