I have a lot of updates to give about the Wynion family, but to kick us off I want to start with our dear matriarch "Aus Ch. Arithon Myfanwy" aka Myffy.
On the 24th August, we ventured to the Nowra all breeds shows. I drove to Nowra that morning after a HUGE week at work. Myffy hadn't been groomed properly, and to top it off, she had a greasy neck from the only tick repellent I could get my hands on.
My very enthusiastic 8yo neice Evangeline was my star handler that I entered old Myffy for ( Nikola Penelope). She took her around the ring beautifully and proudly, and despite my shortcomings where grooming was concerned, got a Neuter in Group with her. Evangeline went straight to the shop to spend her prize voucher on treats for Myffy, while I groomed her for when she had to go for Neuter in Show. This was more than I personally had handled Myf in.
Once groomed up and fed up with Evangelines treats, we went over for the General Specials (each groups best competing against each other.) Evangeline once again, took pride in the welshie on the end of her lead. She did an interesting reverse stack, and ran around the ring anticlockwise (the wrong way 😂). Myffy did move beautifully, and stacked like a star for the line up.
I will admit that it was still, to my surprise, to have breed specialist judge, Mrs Sylvia Crozier, award Myffy and Evangeline Best Neuter in Show. She loved Myfs face and head, and obviously saw what she needed to stacking and movement wise.
It was a true delight to be able to chat with her and her husband Bill afterwards, and share that Myffy's heritage originates from her prefix, and that our first welshie from years ago "Zeta" we also bought from them. So, thankyou Sylvia, for seeing in our dear Myffy, what we too see and adore!
I told Evangeline she could buy Myffy whatever toy she wanted and I'd make the difference, and I am not sure she could have smiled any harder. I am super proud of them both, and feel very privileged to have the beautiful Myffy in my life. (Thanks Jane Gregor !)
