I do hope I've posted in the right place! If not feel free to delete me and I'll try again. I've owned Old English Sheepdogs since 1973 plus the odd cross breed and Polish Lowland Sheepdog along the way. With my husband Michael I purchased my first OES from John Smith and Stuart Mallard (Lameda as they were in those days). My affix is Paddipaws and I have bred selectively only when I've wanted a dog myself. I've been honoured to work for my breed on several committee and served aterm as Breed Council secretary which was an eye opener. Some may recognise me from my column in Our Dogs where I write Everest Bites Back! I work as a journalist, author and jobbing writer. Although my specialism is the canine wold in general I can write about many topics all it needs isto cross my palm with silver! I'm always prepared to stand up for the world of pedigree dogs but if I see any breeder or owner letting the side down I will speak my mind. Corrupt committees, dodgy judges - let me at 'em!I've made some fabulous friends in dogs and come across a few rogues. The good thing with Facebook dog folk is that we can 'like' the goodies and 'block' the baddies! I've enjoyed the Facebook Groups and hope that the Union is a great success and that I can help it grow to something great. Now to push 'post' and see if this vanishes! |
