August
I have to start with the loss of 2 people who have been involved with vallhunds from the early days of the breed ,both will be missed
Susie Reynolds has sadly lost her brave battle with cancer ,I send my sympathy to Chris and all of her family . I know a large number of you wont of known her as since her mum passed Susie then has owned and shown her beautiful Eurasiers I used to enjoy catching up with her at shows when i went with my friend gill to show her Bostons so same day . Last time i saw her and hubbie Chris was at Bournemouth champ show ,thats when she sadly told me of her starting her fight with cancer . I wont forget how they welcomed my daughter and me into our breed and encouraged us with our waggy tailed valls (only full tailed valls shown ) They had become good friends to us and were well known for encouraging new people in Sv ,Susie and her mum June Pearce was there at the start of swedish vallhunds in the uk and although you may not of been lucky enough to of known them if you look back in pedigrees you will find their dogs .
They owned Ch Norsled Mac ,bred by Shiela Haddon , he was the very 1st male champion in the uk in 1985 .they also made up Ch Norsled Fennela also from Shiela . I was talking to Rosie at w+pb about Susie and she said she always remembers Susie with her hair in a long plait and she always handled their dogs so well ,Rosie also said how welcoming they were and reminded me how Susie and Chris Millard was close friends . Susies husband and her family organised a celebration of her life , there were a large turnout of her friends ,and they all spoke of their special memories with Susie .Rip lovely lady.
After shocking Chris Millard of the sad loss of Susie ,he wrote the following piece ,;
Susie and I go back many years she showed 2 very significant dogs Ch Norsled Mac and Ch Norsled Fennela .Mac and my 1st vallhund Delators Likely lad often competed together Mac usually won as he was the better dog .Susie also showed her mums dogs under the Jundra affix . Jundra Amelia and Alicia being the most significent .Susie bred a litter which contained Jean Banks Ch Foxon Banquee at Rodilla and his brother Nellies Lennox at Karmore , Bruin .I will never forget when i went to collect him Sues mum Junehad prepared a lovely buffet lunch ,unfortunately Bruins dad , Norsled Luke has other ideas ,when we went to eat Luke was on the table enjoying his own banquet .Susie was a happy and generous person and great company , also a great handler .We lost touch when she married Chris and left the breed .I was delighted to meet her Paington show 2 yrs ago where she was showing her Eurasers.My sympathy goes to all of her family ..
The other loss was Mal Allens hubbie Mick ,extra hard and stressful as Mal has still been recovering from her stroke ,Mick was surrounded by his family and Alfie at the hospice ..Mick was such a lovely guy ,we didnt see him much in their earler days with valls as he loved going fishing , but since Alfie ,Kintalis Tangled in Tinsel, joined them we had seen them at shows together and we were able to catch up ., Rip Mick no more suffering your family will look after Mal .
From Chris Millard , Mick was a generous man and would help anyone .He helped the late Jacqui Bayliss in her last days .He was great company dog showing wasnt really his thing he was more a coarse fisherman and i teased him about what tiddlers he caught as im a sea fisherman ,but in reality he landed some pretty hefty Carp .So tight lines my friend and rest easy perhaps with a glass of red ,Im glad to of known you .
