Pudelicious Poodles

Last Saturday I held my beautiful boy for the last time. A sudden and rapid deterioration in his health led to that day we all hope will never come.
Neut Ch. Aus Ch. Autunm Kiki of Whitout (Imp NZL) - Jaffa. 5.9.2010 to 24.8.2024.
My love and constant companion - his love and loyalty beyond any human relationship I have had. He saw me through on so many occasions and literally saved his family from a house fire.
We did so much together - he was always willing to give 100% no matter what we did. My first show poodle - he put up with my inexperience and mistakes and the slights from others about his colour, we went on and tried Obedience, Tricks and Agility. He was always a great ambassador for the breed at so many Expos and Poodle stands. In 2015 we became Pet Educators for the Victorian Responsible Pet Ownership Program - where we attended Schools and Pre Schools meeting, greeting and education children.
My foundation stud dog, he not only produced but also loved to be involved in the raising of his puppies. He produced numerous conformation and sporting titled progeny.
For nearly 14 years, he has been always right by my side. His love for me like a beacon in the dark. Thank you my Boy for giving me so much of yourself, looking out for me and your love. I will miss you for the rest of my life.

In the quiet moments of life's trials and bends,
When the weight of the world upon us descends,
We don't always seek advice or a sage's decree,
Sometimes, all we yearn for is a heart that can see.
A hand to hold in the darkest of nights,
A gentle touch that brings warmth and light,
Not words of wisdom or counsel profound,
But a presence that soothes without a sound.
An ear to listen, patiently and kind,
To the echoes of our heart and troubled mind,
No need for answers or solutions to find,
Just a comforting silence, leaving worry behind.
And a heart that understands, without a need for words,
A kinship in empathy, where understanding occurs,
Where judgments fade and acceptance stands tall,
In the sanctuary of compassion's gentle thrall.
Sometimes, amidst life's chaotic fog,
When our spirits are low and emotions clog,
All we truly need to clear the fog's dense smog,
Is the unconditional love of a faithful dog.
With eyes that speak of loyalty so pure,
And a presence that offers solace, secure,
In their silent companionship, we find a retreat,
A haven of peace where troubles can't compete.
For they ask not for explanations or reasons why,
They simply offer their love, unwavering and nigh,
In their simple existence, they teach us so much,
About patience, about joy, about staying in touch.
So when the world overwhelms with its fast-paced demands,
And advice feels like echoes in endless sands,
Remember, amidst life's bustling catalog,
Sometimes, all we need is the love of a dog.

Because of my health, it's taken a while (and sometimes a village) but my boy Pepsi can now be known as Aust Ch. Pandella Black on Gold. Yippee!!

A heart of gold, Pepsi has always given me 100% in the ring, added to this he is a great ambassador for the breed at events such as Dog Lovers and the Pet Show where ho loves to meet the public, and as an educator to young children working for the Responsible Pet Ownership Program.

Thank you to all those that have helped and sometimes come to my rescue on show days - Gail Stynes-McIlrath, Michelle O'Donnell, Lyn Jones especially.

And to his breeder Pam Poole of Pandella, thank you for trusting me with this boy who gives so much and makes everyday a joy.
