View Satin's Pedigree

Satin, aka "The Pistol", is proudly owned, loved and totally adored by Susie Manier.  Satin is Beljekali's special girl - one that is the first export to the US, trying her paw at performance and a showing career.  Satin lives in Chicago, Illinois and travels to lots of places enjoying the company of other Belgians and their 2-legged humans.  Satin is from Beljekali's lovable and sweet natured "Nefre" and handsome big Swedish boy "Sharif".  

Satin is a descendant and grandchild from Beljekali's foundation female Grand Champion Darkfire Vegas Vacation, "Jeddah".  We know Satin has those wonderful typical Belgian traits in type and temperament that our Jeddah was well known and admired for and that our lovely boy "Sharif" definitely possesses and is stamping on all his progeny!

^..^ We wish Susie and Satin many, many years of happiness and success! ^..^
