Thank You's
Thank You's I would like to say a big THANK YOU to a few people who have helped me in my endevor to breed and show quality Shih Tzus.
Firstly I would like to thank John Sheppard of "Erintoi" Shih Tzus. I purchased my first Shih Tzu from John back in 2002, "Hannah" (CH ERINTOI SWEET DREAMS) is a beautiful black & white girl. When it came to breeding Hannah, John offered me the services of "Chutney" (CH HUXLOR ERINTOI'S AMBASSADOR imp uk) of which i kept 2 boys to show. I then decided to to breed "Hannah" again and as I was happy with the first liter, I decided to do a repeat mating and 2 of the boys in this litter were also shown.
Secondly I would like to thank Carol & Les Sherwood of "AFGTZU" in the N.T. for campaigning four of my dogs to their titles.
I also would like to thank Phillip Poulton and Kate Sunn. When I decided to breed "Hannah" again Phillip offered me the services of "Cole" (CH/CAN CH SYMARUN'S GETTING MY WAY imp can). Out of this liter 2 girls and 1 boy are being shown. Both the girls did well in the show ring. The boy was a slow starter and with Phillip's encourgement I continued to show him. I am glad I listened to Phillip as the boy is now a BEST IN GROUP winner and has picked up more then 50 points towards his title in 3 shows. The boy also went on to become a Reserve Best in Specialty Show winner.
I must also say a very big thank you Phillip and Kate for "Patriq" (HASHANAH WATCH OVER ME), a stunning black and white boy. I have high hopes for this special boy and hope he follows in his father's (CH/ENG CH HASHANAH HOT SHOT imp uk) foot steps. He will be a hugh assest to my breeding program. Patriq has made his mark felt in my breeding programe, and again a MASSIVE THANK YOU to Phillip for allowing me to own this amazing, typey dog. With out their help and mentoring I don't think BELTZU Shih Tzu's would be where it is today. Again I must say another VERY BIG THANK YOU to Phillip and Kate. When it was time to breed from Hannah again, Phillip and Kate offered me the services of Marley (aka Maitreya Crowd Puller imp Austria). With their help and knowledge of the breed and guidence through the selection of who to show, I have high hopes for my 2 new girls due to hit the show ring shortly.My girls have started their show careers, and THANK YOU again goes to Phillip for his encouraging words with these 2 lovely typey girls. A final thank you to Phillip for allowing me to use 2 more of his amazing dogs to hopefully produce my last 2 litters prior to suspending my breeding programe.
I also have to thank Jenny Campain(Charmisty Kennels-Maltese) and Leanne Campain(Foxstar Kennels-Maltese, Australian Shepherds and Fox Terrier(Smooths). If they hadn't helped me with Perry I don't think he would have stayed in coat long enough to recieve Reserve Best in Specialty Show. Jenny showed Perry in SA for approx 6 months and Leanne was always willing to help groom Perry and Show him in the challenge line up while I took Mr Patriq in. Another big THANK YOU must go to Robyn and Ray Gill for giving me the oppitunity to venture into new bloodlines with KAJUSHIH TALK OF THE TOWN. Ebony is a granddaughter of AUST GRAND CH KAJUSHIH DRESSED TO IMPRESS (JENNIFER). We all have high hopes for a bright future for the lovely black and white girl.
Another THANK YOU must go to Kim Law (Shaddle Shih Tzu's) for taking Bronte (Ch Beltzu Love And Kisses) after she was returned from a failed co-ownership.Kim groomed and loved Bronte and did an amazing job keeping Bronte in coat to allow me to show her to her final points for her title. We wish to welcome and thank Melissa O'Brein, who is currently campaigning Carter (Beltzu Headline News) and Emily (Beltzu heart and Soul). Mel is doing all the hard work with Carter and Emily including doing their topknots at shows. She is doing a fantastic job with Carter and Emily, having already received multible best of breeds/Challengeds with both dogs. Some of these CC's/ BOB's have been over champion and grand champion dogs. she has also has numerious classes in group with Carter, as well as a baby in group with Emily.
Lastly I must thank all the judges who have awarded my dogs. All my dogs have done well under lacal,interstate and international judges on their own merits.
For thoses that I haven't mentioned that have helped me either show or in any othere way a VERY BIG THANK YOU. You are never forgotten and I am always greatful for any and all help I have recieved. Belinda Heersema St Clair, NSW, Australia Phone : 0407001643 Email : beltzu3@yahoo.com.au |
