Stegill Just Perfect for Nikami (Taylor) was bred by Mrs. Gill Sumner of Stegill Great Danes out of a fawn dog (Dangerpoint Chicago at Ravendane) and a fawn bitch (Dinahtron Copy Cat) 3/11/05. He is a repeat mating which produced Stegill Andromena (Rosie) who qualified for Crufts 2006.

A fantastic start to his showing career. At 6 months and 4 days, at his first show (Blackburn & District Canine Association) he went Best Puppy In Show. At the Midland & West GDC Limit show he got 1st in Minor Puppy Dog, and the Northern GDC Limit show he got 1st in Minor Puppy Dog. He has qualified for Crufts at The National Working & Pastoral Breeds Championship Show getting 3rd in Minor Puppy Dog under judge Mr. C. Lunt and also at Leeds Championship Show under judge Miss S Cartwright getting 2nd in Minor Puppy Dog. At Ruthin Canine Society Open Show he went all the way again getting another Best Puppy In Show! His write up was : BPIS Abbott's G Dane Stegill Just Perfect at Nikami, full of confidence and showing well. Good head and pigmentation. Well angulated giving a good outline, good bone and construction. Sound moving. Lovely youngster. (Pictured below left)

Taylor was shown consistantly during 'Yearling' (including Crufts, but was unfortunately unplaced). He is usually in the cards, but only a few firsts during 2007, although he qualified for Crufts 2008 several times. He was shown again at Crufts 2008 in Post Graduate with an entry of 21 dogs but alas wasnt placed. We have next year to look forward to.
His next show after Crufts was Oswestry & District Kennel Association where he won Best In Show under judge Mrs Pat Harrison (Stebel), (Pictured below aged 2 years 4 months), qualifying him for Crufts 2009.
