CH Sandylands Mark

"THE LEADING SIRE IN BRITAIN"

         "The Black Labrador, Ch. Sandylands Mark, owned and bred by Mrs. Gwen Broadley, one of the greatest dog breeders of all time in Britain, holds the all-breeds stud-dog record for show dogs in Britain, being the sire of twenty-nine British Show Champions which came out of twenty-six different bitches.
          Mark was born in 1965 and was sired by Ch. Renacre Mallardhurn Thunder, a very short-coupled, sturdy son of Mrs. Broadley's influential sire, Ch. Sandylands Tweed of Blaircourt.  Mark's dam was Mrs. Broadley's beautiful quality bitch, Ch. Sandyland's Truth, who came from the famous winner-producing union of Sandylands Tan and Sandylands Shadow.  Mark's influence on the breed worldwide in wellknown."
