ENG Ch. Keyingham Branwell. There
was nothing more glorious than
watching Branwell showing in the ring
at the UK Club Show and Crufts. He is a
beautifully made dog that carries breed
type and excels in showmanship. It is
amazing to see how he developed as I
saw him at around 8 weeks in the
whelping box. We were friendly with
the Parks and visited there on occasion
to share a piece of Mary’s scrumptious
lemon cakes and tea and treasured all

Sanickro Made by Magic. Sadly, Jezz’s
breeder, Gill Tomlinson, passed way
unexpectedly while we were in
discussions about this and the English
Kennel Club at the time did not allow
for AI’s shipped in that fashion. We do
have Ch. Sanickro Inspiration aka
Morgan, a bitch from Jezz’s first litter,
and she is sprite and lively at 13 years
of age. Jezz and many of his offspring
have tested A on MR for SM.

Show at The Donner Trail Kennel Club
under Judge Mildred Bryant in Roseville,
CA. Chips had 20 Group Ones with
limited showing mostly in Northern
California. The Toy Group in California
is one of the most competitive in the
country and breaking the barrier for a
Best in Show for a Cavalier is no easy
feat in this country. This was a heart
stopping moment for us as it was the
