> I thought the list might like to know that it is twenty five years ago today
that my first litter of Cavaliers were born.
> The litter were sired by Can. Ch. Napoleon of Sidewater whose sire was Eng.
> Ch. Rosemullion of Ottermouth if my memory serves me correctly and their
> dam was Can. Ch. Bellstone Felicity who was of all Maxholt breeding.The
> puppies were all tri-colours and landed me in at the deep end so to speak as I
learned from the very beginning how difficult it is to breed a good tri.
> We had not long been transfered to Canada from the UK and my Cavaliers were
> a wonderful way to meet new friends, some of which we still have today despite
moving from Ottawa to the other side of the country here in Victoria.
> In Ottawa in those days a specialty would have been unheard of, even
> members of the Ottawa K.C. barely knew what a Cavalier looked like. In the
> early days it was as if Cavaliers were a rare breed and in a lot of ways
> they were. I can vividly remember being asked to go to the end of the line
> when competing for the group (after winning the breed as the only entry)
> and when after the judging I asked the judge why he didn't like my Cavalier
> he said he thought she was the worst English Toy he had seen in a long
> time. He was American and had never, ever seen a Cavalier.I was advised by
> 'the powers that be' not to complain and the very next day the wife of the
> first judge gave my new English import a group third. Evidently both had read
the breed standard overnight as of course Cavaliers were not recognised by
the AKC at that time.
> It has been said that to remain mentally active as you age crosswords etc
> are a good way to go. My preferred method is to continue breeding Cavaliers
and to study pedigrrees and imagine BIS wins, So far it has worked for me (
at least I hope it has ).
> I'm looking forward to the next twenty five years and hope that I can be
> intrumental still in bringing love and companionship into others lives when
they purchase a puppy and learn how wonderful Cavaliers are.
