I acquired my first Samoyed in 1969. I began showing samoyeds in 1970 and
since then have bred and owned twenty-five New Zealand
champions. Our kennels, Nikolaevsk, holds the breed record for the most
champions bred in the South Island, including the first South
Island bred Grand Champion samoyed. Bear, NZ Grand Ch
Nikolaevsk An Bye Lay, is the breed record holder, winning Best in
Show at the Dominion Samoyed Clubs annual championship on six
consecutive occasions. In 1974 I imported Carwood Snow Nanette, bred
by Gladys Varney in the United Kingdom.
When I married Brian, I inherited his Tibetan Terriers, O.E.S., and
Elkhounds. Together Brian and I have owned or bred one hundred and twenty-four New Zealand, Australian or US Champion Samoyeds, Tibetan
Terriers, Old English Sheepdogs and Elkhounds.
In 1989 I was admitted to the New Zealand Kennel Club’s Judges Panel. I
am at present licenced to judge all seven groups at championship level
and to
award CC’s to all breeds in those groups. I am also licenced to judge
Best in Show.
I have judged in New Zealand, Australia, USA, Ireland, South Africa
Russia, China, Canada and the UK.
I have awarded CCs to Samoyeds in both the North Island and the
South Island here in New Zealand. I have also awarded CCs in
the breed in Australia, Green Stars in Ireland and judged a samoyed
specialty in the USA . In 1995 I judged
the Auckland Samoyed Associations Open Show.
In 2000 I was made a life member of the Dominion Samoyed Club.

I began showing dogs in the early sixties with my parents Pembroke
Welsh Corgis. Then in the early seventies I acquired my first
Old English Sheepdog. I showed a number of O.E.S. to their New
Zealand titles. I also at this time purchased my first Norwegian
Elkhound and have owned or bred twelve New Zealand champions
including my USA import NZ Ch Windy Cove Brut N Rodnas
Banjo, who was shown with some success in the U.K. for me, by Joe Cartledge.
In 1977 I acquired my first Tibetan Terrier NZ Ch Granton Milord
Argyle from Sue Wilson in Australia. Bobby was the first T.T. to come
to New Zealand and the first T.T. champion in this country.
I followed this up with the purchase of Tibetan terriers
from Jill Gould (NZ Ch Arkatagh Sarabande) Cindy Hewitt (NZ Ch
Chiangtzu Berillium ), Joan Cain (NZ Ch Jemecs Briareus and NZ
Ch Jemecs Endymion ) Krista Guziolek (NZ Ch. Boshanti Tyson) and
Audrey Flockart (NZ Ch Qinghai Ga Dongge Imp. Aust.).
To date I have owned or bred eighty-two Tibetan terrier champions
in New Zealand, Australia and the USA.
When I married Louise, I inherited her Samoyeds and to date we have owned
or bred twenty-five Samoyed champions including the South Islands first
Grand Champion Samoyed. Together Louise and I have owned or bred one
hundred and twenty-four NZ, Australian or US champion, T.T.s, O.E.S., Samoyeds and Elkhounds.

Russia, China, Slovakia, South Africa, Canada and Ireland. I judged the Tibetan Terrier Assn.
Championship Show and the Northern Samoyed Soc. "Samoyed of the
Year Contest" in 2002 in the United Kingdom. In April 2004 I
judged the New South Wales Samoyed Club's Championship Show in
Sydney. in 2018 I judged the Slovakian Samoyed club Samoyed specialty and
