but the babies made their debut at our local show with Ako Baby of Breed
Xanda
No words only tears so I will let this poem say it all ....
A
bright shining star
Rides a broomstick today
You've gone to a place
Where we can no longer play
A magic wand is what we needed
Just a magic wand is for what we pleaded
We searched we looked we even got mad
But no matter what we did none could be had
Just one more day
Would give anything to have it that way
One more bark one kiss one hug
But you let us know you'd had enough
Five is not so old
But you told us it was time to be with the man of gold
Max will again take care of you
Just like he use to
We made the tough decision to give you your wings
To ride free on your broomstick
Even though such pain it brings
Our world seems empty tears flow like rain
Right now there is so much pain
So
go ride your broomstick
Have fun again
Go find your pixies and dragons
Go have fun
In a world without you
For us there is none
So tonight we will try to be brave
Wipe tears away and look through the haze
For that shining broomstick riding star
Watching over us from afar

Wrapping Up to 2014
Kuma finished 2014 as National #1 LSC Rising Star
with multiple Classes in Group,
two Classes in Show and Best in Group at just 11 months and Kirei had a
strong finish
to the year with some lovely challenges - looking forward to 2015!!!
ACT Fundraiser - Bungendore Palerang - Harden
Miss Kirei returned to the ring at Harden and was rewarded with Bitch
Challenge
& Reserve and
Kuma had a blast collecting 2 x Puppy in Groups, Puppy in Show
and his final points for
his title!
Coota -
Cowra - ACT Ladies - Yass
Mainly been Kuma out and about with Gibson coming along for company on
occasion
as Kirei, her sister Sakura, and Xan are in their bikinis. Kuma,
who is well on his way
to his title at only 8 mths, continues to achieve picking up BOB's and Minor
& Puppy
in Groups. Gibson has also been a good boy but more recently
thought he'd prefer
to spend the day his chair rather than participating in the ring ....
Jake, Aust Ch Kybota Kings High

the past 12.5 yrs - you will be missed by all who knew you - run free my
