There have been plenty of news updates and posts about the incoming cyclone, so here’s some rough housing kids to fill your feed and a little update on our show results:

On Saturday 01 March 2025
ENVY - Cuddleston Hocus Pocus - Tookout baby puppy of breed and then brought home BABY IN GROUP 🥇

Envy is pushing 6 months now and has brought home several baby of breeds in her short time in the show ring and has received lovely encouraging commentary.

I am very proud of this wild child.

She pulls me around the ring something chronic but we are working on her exhibition manners.

Believe it or not she walks so lovely on the lead everywhere else 😂

I hope you have enjoyed photos I’ve attached of Envy, Genie, and Daisy.

Stay safe and do not go outside during cyclone weather! 🌀

BEST EXHIBIT IN GROUP 🐾
BEST INTERMEDIATE IN SHOW 🐾
Last weekend at Allora Championship Show!

And my sweet Daisy (not pictured) came home with Bitch Challenge and RUNNER UP BEST OF BREED!

They both made me very proud ❤️

We took the four legged overlords to Stanthorpe show on Friday. Unfortunately we were unable to make it back for Saturday, and honestly I don't think anyone much minded staying home, we were all exhausted from our big day out.

Genie - Am. Ch. Absolute Multi-Platinum Thriller (imp USA)
He was not a fan of the hot earth under his paws, and despite not exhibiting at his best, we still managed to obtain Reserve in Dog Challenge against tough competition.
So thank you to the judge on the day for recognising my beautiful boy.

Seamus - Cuddleston Madcap Prince
Sire: Am. Ch. Absolute Multi-Platinum Thriller (imp USA)
Dam: Cuddleston Quest For Love

Seamus, previously known as Rabbit, had his first exhibition experience and got to meet his lovely new humans who travelled all the way from the Gold Coast just to hangout with us.
I am so grateful to these beautiful people for offering my little man a loving family home, and essentially providing a guardian home agreement, which is perfect because Seamus is currently the end of my line from Ch. Gunnadootafu All or Nothing.

Envy - Cuddleston Hocus Pocus
Sire: Am. Ch. Absolute Multi-Platinum Thriller (imp USA)
Dam: Cuddleston Pixie Styx (AI)

Envy was known as Poppy from our Nice Sprites, and my gosh how beautiful she is turning out to be.
Envy ran well for her 2nd time out and about, and is a very enthusiastic baby puppy, pretty much chasing her competitor around the ring haha!

Enjoy these cute pictures, my favourite is definitely carrying Seamus around the ring 🤣

**these photos have been added to Genie’s album due to both puppies being his prodigy whelped by different dams.**

I just love him so much ❤️

Handsome boy!

Sweet little Crystal! Now known as Lily.

Cuddleston Sapphire Lily (Dogs QLD pending)

Sire: Am. Ch. Absolute Multi-Platinum Thriller (imp USA) - Genie
Dam: Cuddleston Quest for Love - Xelda

Lily is the granddaughter of Ch. Gunnadootafu All or Nothing (aka Brax) and my gosh how much she does resemble her mum Xelda, with a touch of her daddy Genie 🤭

She is a Mighty beautiful little lady! ❤️🎁

I love seeing my pups grow up, really they are all so very special to me. I see so many relatives that I love so dearly in each of their little faces ❤️

I finally had a chance to play with my Christmas present today.
These photos were just taken for fun, no glamour shots. Just raw natural higher quality home photos of my girls.

We are working on an alternative pet name for Rabbit, which is really sticking to our vocabulary!

He will hopefully be known as..
Cuddleston Mad Hatter (pending DQLD)

If anyone wants to drop a name suggestion for this handsome little s***k do so in the comments 🤭❤️

NFS, He’s staying here for now 🎉

Last night, wow!
Envy (first image) got baby puppy of breed against some incredibly beautiful and well bred baby puppies.
Daisy (ranga in the 4th image) placed as Open of Breed! Against very strong competition!

And my sweet little Genie placed in Intermediate Dog, however he fell short for Intermediate run off.
He was up against a stunning intermediate pocket rocket 🚀

I am so proud of my dogs, they all performed so well last night, but most of all I am proud of myself for consistently going out the front door and showing up for my dreams and for them!
Consistently training, exercising, providing healthy diets, going to regular chiropractic appointments, and just being a generally responsible human being. It’s a lot of work to be so consistent, and then when a judge points at your dogs once in a while.. it really makes it all feel worth it.

Friendly reminder: You are your biggest fan!

Thanks for reading ❤️ I’m just so proud of these rug rats.

Cuddleston Drops of Jupiter - Daisy, mum to Paris who I had to pull this show cluster.

Oh and me… getting my brain licked 🙄😂

Edit** it’s the last day of 2024 and Genie was awarded Runner Up Best Of Breed at the open show tonight! Again against some tough competition! What a great end to the year!

Precious Crystal, now affectionately known as Lily, has landed in her forever home in Adelaide!

I am smitten 2 of my Cuddleston kids have gone to live with XanderBlue prodigy this year!
One in SA and one in VIC.

A big Shout out to Mumma T for entrusting me with my first Stafford, Xanderblue Xena Grey Bear, and giving me so much support the last 6 years ❤️
Don’t ask me how it’s been 6 years of pestering Terri but it has been such a blessing 😂🙏

I look forward to all the updates on Lily’s new life with her big brother Gizmo 🤭

25/12/2024

We hope everyone had a Merry Christmas 🎄
Rabbit and Crystal (now Lily) who are keeping each other company until Lily fly’s to her new home next week 🥹

Cricket (now Loki) spent his first Christmas with his new family, and Clover has apparently been a complete Angel in her new home, which is a very different experience to the one I had with her while she was with us, she is definitely naughty AND nice!

Rabbit is currently looking as if he will be a show puppy, because if he doesn’t find the right home obviously he will stay with me until the right human comes along.

If you would like to enquire, I need a well thought out written introduction of your home, lifestyle, experience, whether you have kids and if so their ages, do you rent or own blah blah blah.

I will be slow to reply, but I will reply.
Remember it’s school holidays and the holiday season plus I am taking care of these remaining Rugrats.

Parentage DNA clear of genetic and hereditary disease.
Parentage opthamologically tested clear of PHPV.
