2000 - These two outstanding puppies from the first Australian litter of our American import Am Ch Highcroft Caliente, are currently at Vedamea Kennels in N.S.W.
LochWind Artov the Deal - "Arty"
Sable & White Male
The pick male of the litter, Arty was only ever shown on one occasion and he placed second in his class. Unfortunately this most promising puppy injured his hind leg in a kennel accident which consequently ended a promising show career. Luckily Arty went to Vedamea on the understanding that LochWind retained the right to breed to him, so all may not be lost with this incredibly handsome young male.
In January 2003 I visited Arty at his new home off the coast near Mona Vale in NSW. Arty lives on Scotland Island where he has three and a half acres of running room. Access to the island is by boat only, so Arty is quite the "old salt". He certainly has landed in the lap of luxury in his new home with Kym, Cher and their two children, Charmaine and Ryan.
Lochwind Artistique - "Remy"
Remy has been to three shows in Sydney and remains as yet unbeaten. Awarded the Best Baby Collie on each occasion. Placing second in group at her first Championship Show. Now she can claim a fifth placement in a class of 18 at the Sydney Royal Easter Show 2001. Remy was by far the youngest pup in the class and aquitted herself very well, under the Nordic judge Mr Ede.
Following up on her excellent showing at Sydney Royal, Remy took Best Minor in Show at her next outing 20th May 2001 at The Ladies Kennel Club of NSW Championship Show handled by Carol Mulcahy.
2004 - The next generation. From LochWind Artistique by Vedamea I Spy My Fantasy. (Ch Vedamea The Diamond Beau x Fantasy's Fait Accompli - [Imp USA]). Remy produced two lovely white factored sable bitches. Leah is so enthusiastic about her two girls she tells me she will never part with either of them !
