Charm was a product of my carefully studying brown lines and history, for a suitable stud for my "Sophie"
to bring new lines and enhancing my type, without loosing what I have worked so hard to achieve.
As I had hoped, together, they produced superior boning, kept chest, shoulder lay back
rear angulation eye colour and added nice tail set and even thicker darker coat.
Charm's colour is almost black she is so dark brown

Charm is such a fantastic quality brown, that I asked her handler to keep showing her
AFTER she finished her CKC Championship at MASSIVE expense,
to see if she could Grand Champion and she easily did this with 14 Best of Breed Wins
and earning four Group 4th wins putting "Bijou Poodles" into the CKC record books
as being the first brown female in 127 years of CKC history to accomplish this !

Special thanks to my handler Allison Foley who believed in my Goals and making them happen for me.
Special thanks also to my friend and mentor Laurie for all her help in training
attending events and getting titles on Charm when I was working
and being such a great sounding board for me over the years.

When I shaved off Charms big show coat, I was even more happy to discover
she is just as gorgeous bald as she is with a big fancy continental.
Not many can say this !
Charm is a serious working girl. She loves training and having a job
and of course lots of loving and affection.
If I am too busy to train her, she makes a point of getting my attention
by putting herself between my legs as I'm walking, doing a perfect heel with me.
Charm is a real thinker and is always watching trying to figure out what she can do
to get praise or a laugh and for sure my undivided attention.
Charm is SUPER fast, but again, a real thinker, so it was funny to see her first CARA
race with a new Poodle that came out to race that she had not competed against.
At first she was doing a nice jog, then she looked at the white was pulling a head of her
' She was so not used to loosing, so next race and next race she really poured it on
and we could all tell that she was thinking "No way am I loosing to that fru fru dog"
and she didn't after the first initial shock !LOL
I'm VERY excited to see what her and our Dream produce for our next generation !
For sure "BIG" and dark brown and I'm sure Einstein's of the poodle world !
Charm has produced:
CKC Champion, "K-Lar's So Happy for Bijou"
CKC Champion, "K-Lar's Great Expectations of Bijou"
CKC Champion, CKC Grand Champion, "K-Lar's Graced in Chocolate for Bijou"
