My first Champion was CH MONTMARNE MANDINGO (DARIUS) who I bought from Bette Euston in Moe Victoria. "Darius" was my first Best in Show winner, which was The Poodle Club of Victoria in 1964. Darius went on to win 2 royal challenges at both Melbourne and Adelaide shows, he also won 5 Best in Show All Breeds, and was the sire of 26 Champions.

My next star was the beautiful silver imported Miniature bitch
CH JALAHALLI FRENCHES SILVER BUBBLES who took me to the heights in those days 1966 to 1968, in which she won 12 Best in Shows all breeds and 11 Best Opposite in Shows. Her finest being Best Opposite in Show at Melbourne Royal 1968. She was the Dam of 5 Champions and died much to early at the age eight.

In 1970 I went overseas to the USA and UK and fell in love with the Mini Dog called TRANCHANT PHILESMAR PABLO in the UK. I could not buy him so I bought a bitch AUST CH VORTON YVETTE (NETTA). I mated her to him and bought her back with me. The resulting litter of 3 produced 2 champion who in turn produced for other breeders.

I also bought back from England a Black Miniature male CH TRANCHANT SWAGMAN (Swaggie) who was a Best in Show winner and a Silver Toy CH SILCRESTA SILVER SQUIB (Impy) who was the sire of many Champions.

While I was in the U.S I fell in love with Standard Poodles so when I came home in 1972 and moved to NSW I was determined to get one for myself. He was cream and his name was CH MILLBROOK SUPERSTAR (J.C) and was a Best in Show winner as well as the sire of 5 Champions.

One of my greatest thrills as a breeder was at the Melbourne Dog Club in December 1972 judged by the renowned poodle handler and Judge FRANK SABELLA (USA). I won bitch challenge from the puppy class with JEUNESSE JUSTA JOIE owned by John Edwards, then Puppy in group. Louise Searle won dog challenge with CH JEUNESSE JUST NICE, then Best in Group. We both went on to win BEST PUPPY IN SHOW and BEST IN SHOW under Virgil Johnson (USA)

I went on with Miniatures until in 1988 then I thought that toys might be easier for me to show and present. My new toy was a white male CH SAVARIN SURE THING (Hamish).

Then I bought the black toy bitch AUST CH SAUVAGE SENSATIONAL, who became the basis of my Toy Poodle breeding and was the dam of 5 Champions and granddam of 4.

I also bought CH LEZEST STORMYS DELIGHT and he won BIS at the Toy Poodles Society show under Lady Potter AM.

I then purchased CH JOIEDEVIVRE BARBADOS and he went on to do very well in the ring and he was a group winner. His daughter was the granddaughter of Brittany (AUST CH DEBROYD RAVISHING RUBY) who herself is the dam of 2 Champions already.

Then I bred a white male from a Hamish daughter I have. His name is
CH JEUNESSE A LIFE OF RILEY and he is by U.S & AUST CH BERNIS BLACK MAGIC.

My next champion was a home bred male CH JEUNESSE DIRTY HARRY  from Ruby by CH SOLNES IT HAD TO HAPPEN (imp NWY).

I am slowing down with my breeding and only breeding a couple of litters a year now.  I have recently titled my latest stud dog CH SAUVAGE SOLITARY MAN. I have bred 52 Champions over 40 years and at the rate of breeding now, I might make 60 with good luck.
