I am so happy:  My wonderful Amber is on top of her show career. The first puppy ever born in my kennel of Gwyn Paw, now fulfills all conditions for International Champion at the age of 3 years 10 months.  She was the first puppy of my first litter and I immediately knew I would keep her. I fell in love shortly after birth! Because she had her first litter in may 2024, I couldn`t show her for more than one year (coat condition). So I`m especially proud of  her results during the last 3 months.  From June to August she won 3 FCI-CACIB (1 BOB, 2 BOS). 

And I´m also very proud of her first daughter Carolynn Celtic Rose of Gwyn Paw (by Cataleya Rose Ball of Fire). Cora also fulfilled conditions for C.I.B.-J (intern. Junior Champion) at the age of 13 months and meanwhile (15 months old) won 7 FCI-CACIB-J in 4 Countries, 3 BOB, 4 Junior Best of Breed and 2 Crufts Qualifications.

Unsere geliebte Bonni, mein Seelenhund, ist über die Regenbogenbrücke gegangen. Wir sind unendlich traurig. Sie ist fast 17 Jahre alt geworden. Sie war der intelligenteste und verlässlichste Hund, den ich je kennengelernt habe.  Wir vermissen sie unendlich!

BACK From CRUFTS 2025

We had an amazing trip to Birmingham.

Black Bumblebee of Gwyn Paw has competed in Yearling Class Bitches. 

Entries: 29 bitches.

We were not placed but it was an honour to compete at Crufts with my lovely bitch bred by myself.

And I`m very proud of her: First she won Crufts Qualification at the age of 19 months against Champion and open class bitches at Geneva International Dog Show.  And she managed the long trip and all the exciting impressions at Crufts in a perfect and relaxed manner!

Thanks to all the nice people we met, thanks to Priscilla Jansen for Handling my lovely "Bambi" and thanks to GWYN PAW family and friends at home for taking care of the other dogs.
