About us
| We have loved and owned newfoundland dogs for about 15 years. Our first newfie, Woody, a landseer was given to us by some friends who were going to live and work in Italy. Woody was about five years old when he came to live with us and our springer spaniel, Sam. When Sam died at age 17 we knew we wanted another newfie to replace him. Eventually, through the best efforts of Mrs Lindsay May of the Trinity Fair Kennel, we discovered the Fhirabhata kennel and ordered our first puppy, Bodie (Fhirabhata Lord of Tahg). By the time Woody died, aged 15 we had two more newfies, Rufus (Merrybear Masai Warrior) and Annie (Fhirabhata Anaise) and showing had taken over our lives. | ||
In April 2007 we had our first litter, which produced Saffi (Solwaybay Skip a Beat) then the following year Mira (Solwaybay Samira) was born. Both girls are out and about in the show ring and have delighted us both by many good results at Championship show level. In 2008 Ebony (Sandbears Perfect Stranger at Solwaybay) came to our kennel, from Mrs Sue Blake. Ebony, at the age of two obtained her stud book number at Blackpool. Well done Ebony, we are so proud of you.
Although we have not had many litters we propose to carry on trying to continue our lines taking care of health and breeding for longevity. We will continue enjoying our showing career with our girls (and if we are lucky, a boy) and having fun with all the friends we have made in the dog world. |
