September 2008 Export/Quarantine News (Australia)
Ch Snoweyriver Rain Spirit (Senna) and Snoweyriver Lilac ‘n Lace (Lace)
started their quarantine in September en route to Australia.
We believe that Senna will be one of the first registered/purebred WSSD’s in Australia
and certainly the first WSSD to be exported to Australia from any WSSD kennel
in our country bringing them a refreshing new bloodline. We wish our special friends
Rob, Sue and the ‘girls’ Heather and Rebecca a great future in their new country.
My dogs will miss ‘Aunty Sue’s’ delicious homemade pets meal and gravy’!
