Our Dogs |

Tiana
- Can/US Ch. Brinklow Timpani of Burbrook |
| Through the generosity of Norma Moffat once more, I was able to purchase Tiana from her Brinklow's Rosybells last litter. Tiana too, was the only girl in the litter. She has turned out to be my foundation bitch for our particolours. She obtained her Canadian and American championships in short order, garnered a best opposite sex at the CFSO regional specialty in 2002. She has produced 5 champion offspring out of a total of 12 puppies. Tiana is my ideal Cavalier. | |

Becca
- Castlewood's Burbrook Rebecca Feb. 6, 2001 |
Although
not our first black & tan, Becca is the most 'interesting'
one! I was lucky enough to get Becca from Gloria Watkins in Winnipeg
(Castlewoods) and she is our wholecolour foundation. Her personality
is second to none, and her exuberance for life in general makes
her a challenge. Showing her proved to be too much of a challenge,
so she's been retired to mommy duties. Becca's idea of showing
meant taking the ring on two legs, and when all four feet were
on the ground, you practically run. She has produced some lovely
puppies and two of them are now Canadian Champions - a feat she
has been unable to accomplish herself. |

Paige
- Holubs Front Paige at Burbrook Oct. 10, 2004 |
| Paige came to us from our good friends, Mavis & Jerry Holub when she was 10 weeks old. They didn't want to keep her with all the white on her chest and toes, and although it didn't matter to me if she was shown or not, I wanted a ruby girl. Paige made her show debut at the CFSO specialty in June 2006 and noted judge, R. William Taylor, who placed her second in a class of 5, said of her: "solid body which could be a shade shorter, good tail set and carriage, pretty head." It seemed the white didn't bother him at all. So, I took her to an all-breed show in September and she got Best of Winners for 3 points. We are looking forward to her first litter! | |

Talia
- Burbrook Tequila Sunrise Jan. 29, 2006 |
| Talia was the only girl in Micki's first litter, who along with her 3 tri brothers, came into the world 5 days early. Knowing Tiana was retired, the decision to keep Talia was a no-brainer. To have her look so adorable was icing on the cake. Not a freckle to be seen on her body and she is maturing nicely. She seems to have inherited one of her dad's traits though - bug chasing! Flies are one thing, but she came in close contact with a couple of wasps this past summer as well. Hasn't deterred her though. Talia's sire is Can/Am Ch. Woodmere's Lord Byron. | |

Robin
- Burbrook Velvet Ribbons June 6, 2007 |
| Robin
is a daughter of Micki and Can. Ch. Dreamaker Tristen at Sharpcies.
She's very much like her mom - she's becoming 2nd in command as
resident face-washer! Micki & now Robin, make sure everyone
has clean eyes and they are obsessive about it. We look forward
to seeing how she matures. So far, she's enjoying handling class
and hopefully she'll hit the show ring in 2008. |

Laney
- Ch. Burbrook Twinkle of Laney Nov. 20, 2003 |
| We are pleased to welcome Laney back home. Unfortunately, due to health issues of her first owner, they had to make the difficult decision to let her go. We gladly brought her back at Thanksgiving and she has been a wonderful addition to our family. Laney is a daughter of Becca and has all of Becca's spirit plus more. Her favourite place to nap during the day when I go out, is on top of the kitchen counter or stove! She's affectionate, loving, full of spirit and fit into the dog family like she's always been here. | |
