Memorial …<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sovrin Superman \u2018Kal-el\u2019
December 20 1998 to February 10 2011<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>
\n

    In so many ways he was unique. A once in a lifetime dog. He left his mark on the Pharaoh Hound breed, the sport of dogs and my heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Kal-el was my friend and constant companion for 12 years. We traveled the world and experienced so many \u2018firsts\u2019 together. He almost never had a bad day and his effervescent personality made every day brighter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Kal-el demanded attention and would stomp his feet and smile for food. If I managed to ignore that, he would take my arm or sleeve in his mouth and just lead me over to what he wanted.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

     He knew so many words, I could carry on a conversation with him. He would actually answer, in his own \u2018woo woo woo\u2019 as though he was trying to form words. And he always had to have the last word. If I said, \u2018What do you want?\u2019, he would trot over to whatever it was he wanted and push it with his nose. Which always had something to do with food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     He was not an affectionate boy, yet almost every night, he would eventually crawl under the covers and get as close to me as he could. But that was the only time he cuddled unless there was a thunderstorm. Then he would put his head on my lap and tremble just a little. <\/a>I was happy he felt I was his protector when he did need one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     He loved walking on the beach, chasing rabbits and having fun, but would only come back <\/a>when he decided he had had enough. I remember when he got loose in The Netherlands and when I caught up with him he was covered with the black, smelly mud from the bottom of a canal. He looked like a brindle Pharaoh Hound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>     Kal-el loved the show ring, because he loved being the center of attention and Joe would feed him liver endlessly.<\/a> I had to cook a pound or two of liver for just <\/a>one show! If a piece of liver was not tossed every few seconds, Kal-el would start to talk again.. demanding more. Joe did his best to keep him entertained by doing his obedience routine of sits and downs, which he did with lightning speed. He was a clown and a showing fool and always so much fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Lure coursing was his passion. In his prime it took two people to get him to the line. Me on the front end and Karen with a slip lead around the loin. He always ran clean, he never cheated and it gave me great joy to watch him doing what he was meant to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kal-el, if there is a doggie heaven, I hope there are bunnies there for you. <\/strong><\/em>
I love you and will miss you forever.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n


     And his legacy \u2026\u2026 21 Champion offspring around the world (until 2011) with several more on their way Kal-el was a pre-potent and dream sire who stamped his type in almost every breeding.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
