Bonnygate Lady Whisper of Valleypoint
dob 27/10/2009
We have a new addition to the family, Fifi! She was to be called Phoebe, but Issy kept calling her Fifi so that has stuck!
Fifi joined us from Linda and Arnot Wilson's Bonnygate kennels in January 2010 and very quickly settled in to the household. Her showing career started well in puppy, qualifying for Crufts at her first champ show in May. Her puppy career far exceeded my expectations with wins at Champ Shows, numerous BPIB awards, puppy group placings and two Reserve Best Puppy in Show Awards at general open shows. Fifi has also already been awarded two best of breeds at open show levels.
From a young age she has impressed me with her personality and style and it is clear that many judges have thought so too. Although she's not a big dog she is well constructed, balanced and certainly covers her ground with ease. She excels in movement being very sound and moving with great reach and drive.
In the field over this year she has just got faster and faster!! She is very birdy, but also, luckily for me, quite biddable. She is picking up the training quickly so hopefully we will build on this in the coming months to enable us to enter her in some trials.
Fifi has qualified for the East Anglian Supermatch 2011! We are over the moon, as you can imagine!
Fifi has continued to mature throughout 2011 and she really is becoming a beautiful young lady, she has an army of fans on our local walks and greets them all with her happy demeanour and waggy tail. As well as being a lovely "show" dog, she's a super character to have around the house!

It's a hard life being a puppy!
