Eight of Penny's puppies have gone off to magnificent homes and one girl (Zeva) has stayed with us. Her first show was at the Royal Melbourne and she had an absolute ball, winning the Baby Puppy of Breed (we won't tell anyone that she was the only one).
She is now six months old so we hope to be out and about in the ring a bit more now, though keeping her in show coat will be a bit of a challenge due to her getting into absolutely everything.
Nine puppies were born on the 2nd of June. Four black boys, three cream boys and two cream girls, mum and babies are doing well!
May 2011 Update: Penny is pregnant and due 5th of June.
April 2011 Update: Ch Myrana Lady Penelope has been mated to the very handsome Ch Starus I'm Talking (Ramzee). We would expect maybe cream, white and black puppies. If you are interested in a puppy from this litter, please feel free to contact me ASAP as three puppies are already spoken for.
What a great time we had at the 2011 Poodle National in Melbourne. Thank you so much to Zefi for her excellent grooming of Penny, she looked stunning.
Penny came second in Intermediate Bitch from some strong competition. The winner going on to take out Intermediate of breed.
Welcome to my web page.

Just a little bit about myself- I live in the Latrobe Valley in Victoria and share my home with four sons and three standard poodles. I first started dog obedience at the age of 14 with a white minature poodle called "Emile" and my love of obedience has continued since this time.
I have been involved with poodles all of my life, growing up with minatures. When the opportunity arose, I purchased my first standard poodle in 1993. "Lits Rennaisonce" or "Buster" as he was called, he saw me through some tough times. We did some obedience together, however he was never trialled due to my work committments. Sadly, he went to the rainbow bridge at 8 years old due to gastric torsion (bloat).
Then along came "Asha" (Myrana Black Magic C.D) and my friendship with Heather Dickinson. In 2006, Asha had a litter of five pups with "Vegas" (Gr. Ch Capanash Dark Illusion). From this litter I kept "Bear" (Jaredo Thunderstruck CCD CD) we ventured into showing, but it really wasn't his scene. Bear gained his CCD title at 16 months and his CD title at 18 months, we are now working on his CDX but have had nearly 18 months off in between.
Then along came "Penny" (Aust Ch Myrana Lady Penelope). My first Australian Champion, she just loves the show ring and being the centre of attention. I will be starting Penny off in Agility very shortly, as she very rarely walks anywhere, if she can be jumping.
I have had great support along the way and made some great friends, how empty life would be without a standard poodle.
