Amhurst and The Premier of Western Australia

Australia overall is ruled by the Prime Minister, and each state is ruled by the Premier. In Western Australia's case, the Hon. Colin Barnett is our leader, and with his wife Lyn and son Sam, has bought two Labrador puppies from us, bred under our Burberry Labrador prefix. They have patiently waited about nine months for us to be able to assist them with the baby girls, both from different litters, and collected them last week, with the photos taken for the newspaper.
Over the past ten months or so,we have come to know them, through their regular visits to see all the dogs, and I am pleased to say that Colin has a soft spot for the Irish.

Comment by Laura Kolbach on January 31, 2009 at 5:51am: wow Myra, that's great, you are even more famous now! (Mr.Barnett looks a bit like the leader of the A-Team in that tv-series :-))) )

Comment by Nicole Wilson on January 31, 2009 at 11:00am: Ha, ha, George Peppard, you're right, Laura ;-)) Excellent to have such nice puppy buyers and well done for making it into the newspaper!! Maybe they'll come back for an Irish soon?

Comment by Dee Rance on January 31, 2009 at 3:03pm: Famous!!!!! do we have to pay to talk to you now Myra.......I disagree Laura, the poor man looks like my ex husband, I wouldn't sell a puppy to him!!! though I am sure that Mr Barnett is a better bet...Ha Ha

Comment by Kristina Brannlund Westin on January 31, 2009 at 3:48pm: Ha, ha Dee you are so funny!
Myra the puppies are so cute!

Comment by Myra Thomas-Rhodes on January 31, 2009 at 3:58pm: Hello Everyone,
Thankyou for your comments. George Peppard - I will tell Colin - think he will be chuffed!
They are a super family, very caring, and nothing too much trouble for him. Think I will add a few more photos later, to do with three Swedish lads who have been staying with us. Colin has entered in to the fun!

Comment by Myra Thomas-Rhodes on February 2, 2009 at 3:29pm: Ooooh! You are wonderful, Marta! It was last week!
