"WOW"
Yes "wow" really does sum up Lily. She is really is "all that"
I had no intentions of keeping a puppy from this litter/breeding "yet"
but I could not keep my eyes off of Lily, who screamed "look at me, I'm special"
and it was then, I knew I was going to keep her.
I'm proud to say, that Lily is the 4th generation of my breeding.
Lily is a bigger girl, (throw back to her Grandmother Java)
with thick, super rich dark brown colour, like all our Dream pups have.
She has good shoulder lay back (so rare today) and amazing reach and drive with a sweet face.
Lily has her mother's easy going nature and her daddy's goofy playful personality
Lily gets along with everyone and is always searching for someone new to play
"keep away" with. She even indulges our 12 year old girl Ruby
by slowing to let Ruby catch her, which our old Ruby just loves doing.
Which I have to admit, Lily's respect for my elderly Ruby, endeared Lily even more to me.
Lily is always looking for new toys or someone to play with.
I can almost hear her laughing as she drops toys from the couch
onto a sleeping Ruby or Glory's head, and almost giggles waiting for their reaction.
She will repeat this until they either play with her
or leave the area not giving her the satisfaction of her seeing them notice.
I really wish I had a video camera to capture her games.
This has earned her the nick name of "Silly Lily"
Heaven help me if I fall asleep in the living room
as I will wake up to Lily giving me a bath, any exposed skin is fair game.
Lily does enjoy being groomed and is such a good girl on the table
tolerating me, never complaining, as I pulled and yanked out knots
and learned how to comb in little pig tails
in her top knot, to keep that precious show coat
all the while, she knows I have "0" idea of what I"m doing.
Lily achieved 4 CKC (Canadian Kennel Club) points as a puppy
with Allison Foley, before we got her back
8 months later we entered her in a CKC show with Foreign Judges
(aka ... blind to politics and products) and we were right !!!!
We managed to hire Emily Burdon to do final grooming and handling...
Aunt Crystal, did all the brushing out and initial grooming (Laurie doing the bathing)
I have "0" ability or desire to learn about show grooming so it does take a village.
Lily finishes her Championship with a Best of Breed win over Canada's #1 Poodle and Specials !!
and a Group 1st placement over Canada's Top Dogs.
Something that would never happen with a Class Dog, but especially a brown.
Little did we suspect that her brother Oscar would win Group 1st two months later !
Talk about receiving Professional confirmation that this is an amazing brown breeding !!
Lily is a new CKC Champion and finished with a BANG !!!
proving all along, that we not only produce sound, structurally, correct Poodles
but that they are also poodle "pretty"
Lily produced our gorgeous brown Champion Gucci
and my future Stud dog Dunnie

Lily retires with

who provided such a great home to her Grandmother
2018
Lily is not even 2 years old yet and still has some filling out to do.
Lily shaved down with a #7
I could not wait to see what she looked like under that show coat
and I was not disappointed ! She is so dark brown and just so stunning.
She needs to be stretched back a tad, but you can see how nice and square she is.
I had to lighten the photo a bit to have her show up.
Look at that chest !

Lily WINS 1ST PLACE !!!!
Lily achieved 4 CKC (Canadian Kennel Club) points as a puppy
with Allison Foley, before we got her back
8 months later we entered her in a CKC show with Foreign Judges
(aka ... blind to politics and products) and we were right !!!!
We managed to hire Emily Burdon to do final grooming and handling...

Well doesn't Lily beat 7 standard poodles, including
black specials bitch, who is #1 Poodle in Canada, for BEST IN BREED win
handled by Kayla Wade, (Emily's Assistant).
The amazed Crowd cheered, and i was flabbergasted because :
1. A brown beating a black (so rare)
2. Class bitch beating a specials bitch (meaning they are already a champion) NEVER
3. Unknown handler beating one of the top handlers and faces in Canada
4. We used no fake hair (aka wiggies or switches) and as usual, no dye.
5. Judge finally appreciated proper movement, good structure, type and was blind to politics and products.
Well we were not done being shocked yet !!
We still had compete in Group. Ten best, of the best of breeds, representing.
Judge pulls out Lily in what appears to be Group 4th. Crystal and I are cheering
But wait, what is he doing ?? He points at Lily for the GROUP 1ST WIN !!!!!
Group 1st win, handled by Emily Burdon !!! YES A BROWN BITCH !!!
IF you can't guess... I"m really relishing this shocking and deserved win
as will probably never happen again in CKC.
Lily is a new CKC Champion finishing in 1 weekend and finished with a BANG !!!
