At Geelong Kennel Club Claire and her Peggy (Oliver/Gypsy) picked up a lovely Best Baby Puppy in Group Congratulations everyone. Our babies are growing well, hopefully new pictures by the weekend and then letting prospective parents know what is available!.

April 27, Paris picks up another Australian Bred in Group along with Bitch Challenge under breeder/judge Mrs B Hales.
April 24 Thank you Angela for piloting Paris through to another Australian Bred in Group award last weekend in Queensland
April 16 A big thank you is in order to Angela Findlay for finishing Paris to her title in Queensland over the weekend. It took a lot of persuading on Angela's part for us to let her go for a showing holiday but we are grateful that she persisted :) Paris finished with a Best in Group (Group 1st) which means ALL 3 litter mates in the showring are Best in Group winners
April 09 He has done it! after what seems like forever (but really wasn't when you know how many show he has been to!) Lyam titled yesterday under Mrs Jean McErlane of NZ, he started accumulating points at this show weekend 2 years ago as a raw 7 months old minor puppy. Then today we have a confirmed pregnancy for Lyam and Dion.
April 03 We would like to thank everyone for their interest in Marvin, it would appear that he has a home.
March 18 Time has certainly passed since I have updated the website. Not a whole lot to report really, a couple of shows have been attended Oliver, Lyam and Paris have all added to their tallies. Oliver has picked up a Runner up to BEST IN GROUP (GROUP 2ND) Whilst his daughter at her first show collected Baby puppy in Group, congratulations Peggy and Claire. Finger crossed we have babies on the way more as their pregnancy is confirmed. On the puppy note Samantha Buckley of Kirrieloch Kennels has available a Tri boy and girl - see the Available page for more details.
