My "heart dog" was an Irish Setter 34 years ago and I now wish it hadn't taken me so long to have another. I am enjoying every minute with this crazzzzy girl (Kizzi) - it takes me back in my memories. Kizzi shares her home with me, 3 Papillons, a Persian cat, a Quarter-horse and a quarter-of-a-horse.We have a couple of acres to romp on and the beach is only a 1km away, for a change of 'romping' scenery.
Well its a while since we had a chat i thought id better let you know the latest news.
well Ashley came home for good for now.Hes not planning on Aust again at press but poss elsewhere. Anyhow he came home a complete surprise and took the wind out of my sails lets say. Now hes trying to get a job which isnt
easy. Shadow turned 13 on good friday see new pics. It will be willow birthday 24th hardly believe she will be 2. And not had a season yet.

Thankyou for the link to your Mum's kennel - I didnot have it. She has some really beautiful dogs. Sheila has several relatives in common on her father's side and similar English lines on her mother's side, to some of your Mum's dogs. My red & white girl, Nina, is mainly from English lines and the tri baby is her grand-daughter.
So I have been discovering in the last year. A late-comer to computers, as I am allergic to the old CRT screens. Now, with the new LCD screens, I am trying to catch up on everything I have missed over the last 20 + years.
hello Susan, thanks for your comment. here in Europe we show with short ear feathering, though i like it longer and keep it much longer than others (and you should see the girls now, very long and untidy, haven't been to any show yet in 2009). last year we had lots of UK judges and i was kind of forced to trim the hair away from the ears - they are used to that :-) good luck with Kizzi's first show, hope to hear from you soon. what is her breeding, btw?
greetings, laura
you got beautiful papillons.
my mother is a breeder of papillons in the netherlands.
do you know her?the kennel name is "from gemini's home"
gr,Suzanne
Well i dont have plans to visit him we are hoping to see him in august when his visa will run out after 2yrs over there. He had a 6mth one twice and last aug took out a 12mth one. He works for nci interntional if that helps though he has to finish come the end of feb.He did go out to Alice ~Springs well further on from there on a ranch of cattle , he also did a spell at a Stud Farm .And he also had his first experiance on a ranch with cattle and sheep .He then left there and set off from Adelaide to melbourne where he stayed for a while before going on to sydney jan 2008.But the condidtions of the visa is for him to earn and go on these things so although he got this job at nci hes come and gone from it a few times until now.He stopped for a long time at the hostel in central railway ...Since then he has shared houses and appartments at different times then back the hostel accordingly. We have a large collection of pics now from the different bays and bridge and opera house etc.Plus he has done different trips here and there so pics are bulging.
