Bono is a Slovakian import and an amazing powerhouse of a male. He is extreme but is also clear headed and has the ability to settle when not working. Bono is also an exceptional slow, methodical, precise tracking dog receiving 97 points in his IPO1 track. Bono is a dog I have watched train over a couple of years, and I simply think he is a good match for Khaleesi in pedigree and being the type of dog he is. His IPO2 scores are 99-90-96 285 pronounced.

Her dam Alma Modra strela produced a very consistent litter of 8 females with Rosso. She is an extremely clear headed female with good drive and aggression. The dam line goes to Nike Eqidius who was a powerful, hard female with a lot of aggression and natural tracking abilities. It is easy to see how the type of dog Nike was passes up the dam line to Nancy to Kora to Alma and then to Khaleesi. Overall, Khaleesi is no accident. She comes from a long line of powerful, drivey, strong nerved dogs.
