I didn't think Richard would allow me to keep another puppy, but "Honey" is so sweet, she'd make anyone melt. This little girl has excellent type and conformation, along with beautiful dark almond eyes. Her lovely sand colouring is complimented by a heart-shaped white mark on her forehead, white on the back of her neck and a nice white tip on her tail. Coming and going her movement is true and sound, and she exudes femininity. When I saw how she was developing I said, "she's the one".

Fortunately her half-sister, "Lyndsay", and my Tibetan Spaniel, "Willow", love 'Honey' and enjoy playing with her, which means loads of exercise and fun for all of them. I just wish she didn't like digging quite so much.

Like most Canaan Dogs, "Honey" is a slow maturer and isn't all that happy in the show ring--yet. Despite this, judges have raved about her true 'pariah dog' characteristics and unfaultable movement. She won Best of Breed at the Nordic Open Show in November 2003 because of her movement, and Reserve Best Bitch at BUBA championship show in December 2003 for the same reason. Time will tell the full story, but "Honey" has the potential to be a real star. We have every reason to believe that 'she's the one' who will bloom into a top-winning Canaan Dog and an asset to the breed in the whelping box! Watch this space.
