19th October 2024 Tibetan Spaniels: the Tibetan Spaniel Association Champion show, judged by Ian Prentice, saw Zaya (aka Parloueve Make a Wish for Maursett)once again winnin her Baby Puppy bitch class.  Onwards and upwards for this "stunning" (not our words, but an experienced breeder said this to us at the show) little girl who is certainly making her mark in the Maursett household:

 

Thanks to Maria Ottens for this lovely photograph of Zaya after winning her class at the show

25th September 2023 - Clumber Spaniels: tonight another star shines brightly as our lovely girl Beatrice - Cape Lewisporte Make A Wish for Maursett (Imp Bel) - was given sleep after a very short illness.

Bea was never destined to be a show girl, but she revolutionised our Mob and we are forever grateful to Danielle and Jan for entrusting us with her.

Mother of Maursett show champions Maursett Mathos, Maursett Mercy and Maursett Mycate of Kiswahili and not forgetting Maursett Morveen of Vanitonia, mum of Lee Cox’s BIS Winner Sh Ch Vanitonia Soloist, as well as Maursett Mhairi Res CC winner at Crufts in 2020. Her grandchildren include show champions Maursett Malfoy, Maursett Marnie and Maursett Malachie at Molvonia. 

Her impact goes even further with grand and great grandchildren Maursett Masikean, Maursett Muttley at Molvonia, Maursett Marvella of Bebacova, Maursett Mordecai at Rocabec, Maursett Moruisg and Maursett Mimi of Maiank all winning CCs and Reserve CCs.

Bea was the sweetest of girls and loved everyone and was a joy to live with, even if she did have a love of Jaffa Cakes.

God speed Bea over the Rainbow Bridge.   

 

Tomorrow is never promised so everyone give your dogs an extra hug tonight.
