* The In-House Dogs! *

Irish Champion and International Beaute CH. Montblanc Talimeena. CW 06 (Holly)

Holly is a Japanese Spitz, another of the spoilt babies. Born here at home, Holly is 7 years old, is a real human mummy's girl. Is very successful in the show ring. Always bringing home lots of rosettes and trophies, and a CC the 1st English championship show she was ever at.......which made the human mother very pleased :-) Affectionalty known as "Yip-Yap" Although the human mother makes no difference with any of us she tells us that we are all her champions. Holly spends quite a bit of time out playing with us but really prefers clinging to the mother's coat tails!

" Tikka " Rodina Kishanda at Montblanc

Tikka the mother of Holly. Born in Ireland. Is almost 10 years old. Spends NO time with us Huskies. She's very snooty towards us and must be very proud of those white teeth of her's because she's always showing them to us! Goes everywhere with the human Mother seems she is more human than canine. Occasionally watches us playing through the windows but never comes out to play. In my opinion a real Prima Donna. I would love to play with her! Tikka has now retired from the show-ring to leave way for the Firecracker...

Lindberg Akiko Kimba at Montblanc (Kimba)

The Japanese Shiba Inu Kimba (also known as Bear) Very confusing for visitors but she answers to both names! 7 years old this summer, Kimba is one of the human Mother's spoilt babies along with the 2 Japanese Spitz. Kimba was born in Ashbourne Ireland. Does not partake in any of the usual activities such as walking on a lead, she refuses to do so. Has this frightening high-pitched scream that sometimes I get the blame for. But she asks to come out and play with us in our run and chase games. Very hard to catch and when one of us do she screams, we get told off, and we have to put her down again! Apart from playing a few games with us Huskies Kimba's favourite pastime is sleeping. I don't think she's a cat!

Irish Champion Merryn's Firecracker At Montblanc SH.CM.CW.06 (Summer)

The rather aptly named Firecracker... 5 years old.....Summer our Red Shiba Inu, who has destroyed our house..Beaten up our Spitz's and generally caused havoc.. But we love her to bits, has been very successful in the Showring winning her first Green Star as a Puppy, also been to Crufts and placed 4th in her Puppy class, much to my delight. Summer has 3 CACIB'S now, one more to go to get that International Beaute Champion title.......
