"Kate"

Well what can I say about my "Kate"!! I had placed an order for a BC bitch in 1991, finally on the 17th October 1993 my long awaited girl was born. Oh! how lucky can one be, Kate was the only girl in a litter of four. Arriving in Townsville at the age of 3 1/2 months, along with a BONUS (Harvey her litter brother). With Kate's outstanding performance in the Show Ring, we have thoroughly enjoyed every single win. I hope you enjoy reading all her many achievements just as much as we did winning them all.

"KATE" has been sparingly shown since 2000, yet has still managed to gain awards along with another BEST EXHIBIT IN SHOW in 2001, she is currently sitting on 1760 Challenge points. We mated her to our home bred boy "Royce" AUST CH TASTOWN HARD TO RESIST and she produced her first litter for us in July 2000 ( 2 boys and 3 girls). Sadly one boy Tasman ( Tastown Hard Game T Play) died at the age of eighteen months due to a snake bite, the other boy "Cailean" has gained his Championship Title and I am pleased to say that his three litter sisters are all on their way.

The sire we chose this time round for "Kates" second and last litter was a lovely dog from New South Wales from the Nahrof Kennels called "Cooper" AUST CH NAHROF MOONLIGHTING. Out of this particular mating we had to keep the girl. We have named her "Freya" TASTOWN DESIGNER LADY, this lovely girl will make her show debut soon and if she only wins half as much as her mother we will be over the moon.
