PASCHA


Pascha has recovered very well from her surgery. I thank Bill for her good care.
Yesterday, 3rd October 2009, Georgia took some lovely photos of her.

Pascha turned 10 years old on 15th June 2009 and I am pleased to report that she still bounces around like a puppy! I believe she is currently the oldest Leo in Australia.
But age does take its toll and just a couple of weeks before her tenth birthday she had to have some large benign lumps removed. The one on her tail was/is of concern but Bill chose not to do a biopsy and it may return. Bill promises to send more pics once her coat has regrown but here is one taken the day after her operation.

Pictured below at nearly 4 years old, Pascha is my foundation bitch.
She is aproximately 28 in. (71.25cm) tall and is nicely bodied. She has a lively outgoing temperament and a great sense of humour.
My thanks to Kim Winters for entrusting this lovely girl to me.

Only lightly shown, Pascha still holds the record in Australia for the least number of shows entered to gain her title (11 CCs), although this was not accomplished until she was 6 years old. No other female ever beat her in a show except for Shiraz on a couple of occaisions and once by Cora. A few of the shows listed below:
Challenge Bitch Royal Melbourne Show 2000
BOB and Best Leo in Match, BMDC of Victoria 2002, judge Lotta Petre
Runner up Best Bitch in show, Giant Breeds competition, July 2003
Reserve challenge bitch, Adelaide Royal 2003
Challenge Bitch and RUBOB, Melbourne Royal 2003
Since moving to Melbourne, I am now only permitted to keep 4 dogs and Pascha now has a home with a Bernese who badly needed some company.

Almost 8 years old with yours truly at a Leo fun day
