First birthday!! 7.10.2011. Happy Birthday kids!

Mum : Can Ch. Chetcote Dottie's Dream of Kilfinan (Dottie)

Dad : Caldermist Wild Rover (Paddy)

As Dottie and Paddy's kids leave puppyhood and enter their teenage years we have marked the event with a page of pictures sent by their long suffering owners.....

Below is Holly owned by the Macgill's and living in Scotland.Note how she has muscled in on her big brother's bed ( she hadn't been there 2 minutes!)

"Mmmmmmmmmm............my Birthday bone!"

This is Izzy who lives with her family, the Draycott's, in Shropshire. Love this line of photo's showing her in her various stages of development

...and obviously not averse to the camera!

and now for the lovely Lola who also lives in Scotland but with the Unick family and would appear to be crossed with a Hippo!

She certainly likes water!

and is partial to a bit of comfort...

and we now know why she is called LOLA!!!

The next few pictures are of another Holly who also lives in Scotland with her family the Grays.

Who said Beardies should be out herding sheep? .....give me a hug from a bee any day!!!

Spoilt.? ........ me?

Spot the photographer!

Next is Cassie, proudly(!) owned by Brenda Hemmings and they live in Kent with their two small, long suffering companions...

This was Cassie when she first arrived, she seems to have settled in well!

Too well !!!

Cassie is a little older in this picture ....however the theme seems to have continued!

A bright enquiring expression is a distinct feature of the breed.... or are they just plain nosey??

Harry lives in Liverpool with the Marshall family. They already had a Kilfinan and were brave enough to return for another 5 years later.

Oh dear, this is what happens when you have 2!!

Harley and Harry looking demure on their white sofa... . Don't let this look fool you!!

... and Harry looking windswept , interesting and innocent..Was the ball a starter before he ate the chair leg?

Last, but certainly not least, Gypsy, who now lives in Canada with the Smedley family who bred her mum from 2 Kilfinans. She appears to be enjoying the Canadian experience as you will see.........

Gypsy and David herding the ducks!

Gypsy and David strutting their stuff!

And finally....Gypsy looking demure ( for once!)
