Boppaleulah : Colpatron Secret Dreams of Flatmeer
(Ch Boreasvale Bargeboy x Colpatron Devine Charissa) born 15.01.97
She was only shown a few times as a puppy as she didn't like the ring,
but upon becoming a grandmother Boppaleulah
changed her mind and has had a successful show career as a Veteran.
Winning several brace classes with both her daughter Chakka
and grand daughter Fortune, a couple of Best of Breeds at Open Shows
and as a runner up in the Eukanuba Golden Oldie of the Year,
Boppaleulah ended 2004 by being Best Veteran in Show
at the North of England Keeshond Club's Championship Show
and winning the Club's Annual Vanglede Memorial Trophy for the most
wins at the Club's Shows - not bad for an oldie!!
Showing in 2005 was somewhat limited by the arrival
of her great grandchildren, but she made an appearance at the
North of England Keeshond Club's Open Show in July and was Best Veteran
in Show; followed by 1st
Veteran Bitch at Darlington Ch Show.
