ALATURKA'S CHAMPIONS
AKC BISS GRAND CHAMPION
EISERNTOR AA MUSTAFA of TÜRKAY
"Moose" is one of our most spectacular pups to come onto the show scene in several years. He started his show career at 16 months old after spending his life prior to that as a working Livestock Guardian living on a farm with goats, sheep, horses, chickens, cats and his family.
In four short weekends he finished his AKC Championship with 7 Winners Dog, 5 BEST OF BREED wins over Champions, 3 Majors and a Working Group 4. The day he finished his AKC Championship he was tied for AKC's #4 Anatolian. By June 2007, Moose was AKC's #3 Anatolian all systems. And, he accomplished all this before he was two years old!! On September 21st, 2007, Moose surpassed all our dreams by taking BEST IN SPECIALTY SHOW at the ASDCA National Specialty; he then went on to take a Group 1 that same day!! He finished his first year in the show ring as AKC's #2 Anatolian.
Since his first show in 2007, Moose has shown over and over that his charismatic personality, balanced structure and stable temperament are his most attractive traits ... both in the show ring and out. In 2010, Moose once again entered the history book by becoming AKC's FIRST GRAND CHAMPION ANATOLIAN!! He doesn't show much, but when he does, he makes it count!
In between shows Moose returns to his pasture to guard and protect his livestock, proving once again ... "from the pasture to the show ring ... Anatolians do it all ..."
As with all Alaturka puppies, Moose comes from quality dogs .. his Sire, CH Kandira's Encore (affectionately known as "Ernie"), is the Dec 2006 Eukanuba Nat'l Championship BEST OF BREED winner and his dam, AKC/Int'l CH Alaturka's SenRuya Eiserntor is a TOP 20 Anatolian. He has two AKC Champion littermate sisters, CH Alaturka's Havali Savasci and CH Island Farm Kolay of Alaturka. Both of his parents and several littermates are also working livestock guardians.

The most common comment heard when Daisy was in the ring was "what absolutely beautiful movement" ...

AKC NS CHAMPION
ALATURKA'S ISLAND FARM ASIRI
Even as a puppy, we knew Siri was meant to be a champion!! With her regal bearing and beautiful appearance, she was already a presence at 3 months old!!
At Siri's first dog show, she showed like a dream and, although, she did not take winners that day, it was clear it would not be long before it would be a common occurrence for her to win!!
Siri went to live with Tiffany Murphy when she was about 8 months old to be a companion to another Alaturka puppy, CH Alaturka's Zor Kafi. Tiffany is responsible for training Siri and showing her to her AKC Championship.
Siri's main claim to fame happened at the ASDCA National Specialty in November 2005, when Siri, shown by Amy Wendling, was awarded BEST PUPPY IN SWEEPSTAKES by Honorable Judge Alice Bixler, then was awarded BEST OF WINNERS by Honorable Judge Paula Nykial from the 12-18mo Puppy class in the regular show.
This was Siri's second 5 point major and a real compliment from these two very distinguished judges.

AKC EUKANUBA CHAMPION
ALATURKA’s TILSIMLI TAKSIRATA
Sira is one of two outstanding females from the Dani/Ernie litter that finished their AKC Championships with very limited showing.
Sira was awarded her first major at 7 months of age when she defeated adult class dogs and champions by going BEST OF BREED her very first show!!
She then went on to pick up two more majors the ASDCA National Specialty weekend in Nov 2005 by being awarded WINNERS at both Saturday and Sunday supported entries.
Her next big win was when she was awarded an AWARD OF MERIT at the Jan 2006 AKC Eukanuba National Championship in Tampa, Florida .... she then went on to take BEST OPPOSITE SEX at the Dec 2006 AKC Eukanuba National Championship, making it a father/daughter win, since her gorgeous dad "Ernie" took BEST OF BREED that same show.

AKC / CKC / UKC CHAMPION
ALATURKA'S DANISKA EISERNTOR
All Championships from Bred-By Exhibitor class!
AKC TOP TEN ANATOLIAN
2005 AKC #7 Bitch
2004 AKC #3 Bitch

First two AKC Majors at 18mo old!
UKC CHAMPION AT 14mo!
CKC's #1 ANATOLIAN FOR 2002/2005/2006!
"Daniska" in Turkish means "the best". From the moment Dani came into my life, I knew she would be special. She has that calmness that is so ingrained in the Anatolian. Everyone who meets her falls immediately in love ... she just has that affect on people. When Dani was bred to CH Kandira's Encore (aka "Ernie") in 2004, and they produced National Specialty Winners and AKC Eukanuba National Championship winners, I knew we had created something special.

BIS CH Alaturka's Kibar Dev of Senflower
ARBA's #1 ANATOLIAN in 1998!
Breeder: Alaturka Anatolians
Owner: Senflower Anatolians
At 14 months old, Dev was awarded BEST IN SHOW at ARBA -- Making him the youngest ASD ever to go BIS at ARBA, the only ASD to do it from regular classes, and one of only three ASDs to go BIS in ARBA's history as of July 1998. Due to an accident shortly after his BIS, Dev was unable to continue his rise to fame. However, as a stud, he has sired several wonderful Champion pups ...
Dev had his 10th birthday on April 3rd, 2007 and is still going strong ... his mom, Karen Sen of Senflower Anatolians, still thinks he is the best of the best!!

ASDCA, ASDI, ARBA, AFC, FIC, WWKC, UKC GR Champion
TILKI BAYAN of ALATURKA, CGC
Tilki born April 7, 1993, came all the way from Oregon and was my first real showdog ... this multi-talented "Foxy Lady" went BEST IN SHOW PUPPY four times out of her first six shows. During the course of her show career, she accumulated multiple BIS, Group and Breed placements ... As of January 2007 (even though she retired in 1998), she still holds the record for the most BIS awards of any UKC Anatolian in the history of the breed ... she was also #1 in multiple kennel clubs during her show career ...
This outstanding female is my foundation bitch ... she is OFA excellent (along with both her parents), thyroid normal and CERF'd annually. She exemplifies the Anatolian breed ... as a guardian, companion and showdog .... and in 1997, six weeks after weaning her first litter of 8 pups (4 males, 4 females), she went BOB 3 of 4 shows and was awarded another BEST IN SHOW!! This was her first time back in the ring in eight months ... to say I'm proud of her is an understatement!! And, although she did not repeat her #1 status for 1997 (she was too busy raising puppies), she did manage to finish as UKC's #2 ASD ... not bad for only four months of showing (and still not leaving Florida!!!).
In March 1998, Tilki became the first UKC GRAND CHAMPION ANATOLIAN! That same weekend, she took another BEST IN SHOW! Two weeks later, she took another BEST IN SHOW!! This winning streak makes her one of the top winning Anatolians of all time!!
