Thames - affectionately known as "Timmy" - is the pick female from our River x Emmy litter and a full littermate to our boy Haku. She is owned and adored by Claudia Stockebrand Sandoval in Chile.
Thames began her show career in the United States, where she made an early impression by earning a Puppy Group First in the 4-6 Month Beginner Puppy competition. After relocating to South America, she continued to exceed our expectations, earning an impressive list of accomplishments including her Junior Chilean Championship, Chilean Championship, Chilean Grand Championship, Uruguayan Championship, and Uruguayan Grand Championship, along with multiple Best Puppy awards and specialty wins.
A beautifully balanced girl, Thames combines lovely breed type, sound structure, and effortless movement. She is especially admired for her smooth, ground-covering side gait and feminine expression. Beyond her accomplishments in the show ring, Thames possesses the temperament we strive to produce - happy, confident, outgoing, and always eager to enjoy whatever adventure comes her way.
In June 2026, Thames returned to the United States to continue her journey toward her AKC Championship, and she quickly picked up right where she left off. In just a few weekends of shows, Timmy has already earned all of the single points needed toward her championship and is now searching for her majors to complete her title. Along the way, she has been awarded multiple Best of Breed and Best of Opposite Sex wins over specials, making her return to the AKC ring an exciting one to watch.
While here, Timmy will also become part of our breeding program at Hightide, with plans for a litter expected in early 2027. We are incredibly grateful to Claudia for the love, dedication, and care she has given Thames throughout her career, and we are so happy to have Timmy back home for this next chapter of her story.
We look forward to watching all that this special girl accomplishes in the years ahead, both as she works toward finishing her AKC Championship and as a future contributor to the Hightide program. |
