Sired by Australia 1st Grand Champion, who was in his own right one of Australia's leading Cocker Spaniels during the 90's, her dam was Manunga's 1st Champion and home bred bitch. A fantastic show bitch and her cockery nature in the ring helped Delta accumulate many top awards from the Minor classes onwards. Some highlights of her career include:
-
Australian Champion at 12 months of age.
-
Queenslands Dog of the Year Qualifier, 1997. She was the 1st Cocker Bitch to qualify for this event.
-
2nd in the Puppy Sweepstakes Brisbane Royal Show, 1995.
-

-

Whilst still a top winning bitch, she was retired at 4 years of age. As a handler (Matthew Sticher) "I will remember this bitch for her great movement and showmanship and for putting Manunga Kennels on the map in Cocker Spaniels".
