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. |

Talia
- Ch. Burbrook Tequila Sunrise Jan. 29, 2006 |
| Talia is a granddaughter of Tiana and is a small, compact blenheim. For the first two years of her life, I thought she'd be too small, however she has now matured and at 2 1/2 weighs in at 14 lbs. Her sire is Ch. Woodmere's Lord Byron. At the Canadian National Specialty in Prince Edward Island in September 2007, Talia garnered Reserve Winners Bitch under UK breed judge, Jenny McAlpine. Also in PEI, she got the same award at the Regional Specialty under US breed judge, Karen Heron. Talia earned her Canadian Championship at the Guelph Kennel Club All-Breed show in April 2008, all championship points won from the Bred By Exhibitor Class. She is such an easy girl to live with and we are looking forward, with much hope, to her first litter. | |

Erin
- Wugs 'N Kisses For Burbrook Mar. 15, 2008 |
| In
2005, Tiana had her last litter - 2 puppies, a boy and a girl. The
girl, Burbrook Piece of a Wug Puzzle went to live with Lisa Lott
and had a stellar show career, gaining her first 4 points at the
tender age of 6 months. She was a champion before she was a year
old. Lisa offered me the pick of Puzzle's first litter when the
time came. Well, the time came this past March and Erin was my choice
from the 3 girls and 2 boys. We had our first litter ever when we
lived in Erin, ON and the name seemed a fitting tribute to our years
in Cavaliers. Erin is a little spitfire and has fit so well into
our Cavalier family. We are grateful to Lisa for parting with Erin
and we hope she follows in Puzzle's & Tiana's pawprints. Her
sire is Ch. Sanickro Magic Star (Finley), owned by Laura Lang in
Cleveland, OH |

Kristy
- Barrington Burbrook Firefly May. 26, 2008 |
| Kristy came to us from Pat & Harry Barrington in late August of 2008. From a casual email, commenting on a picture of 3 of the puppies in her litter, in which I said to Pat "I'd love a ruby girl like that one day" came a phone call offering her to me. It took all of about 5 minutes discussion before we knew we had to have her. She's a spunky tyke who has fit in well with our other girls and is loving and affectionate. Kristy is a wonderful addition to our family and we're grateful to Pat & Harry for entrusting her to us. | |
