Oliver		Happy
Blossom		Zorra
Zoe		Woody

Named after a film with knights and all that magical stuff of medieval times, Oliver is the "man of the family". He was returned as a puppy because he would knock down the 2-year child of the family with his boisterous ways ... He is the living proof that OES puppies and small kids are not a good mixture!

When young, he loved to steal every toy he would find unattended. He particularly liked the furry ones and his favorite passtime was to pull their noses out (which eventually would reappear in his stools ... I'm glad it was not the eyes. Can you imagine, a dog dropping looking at you?) His eyes can melt anyone's heart. He is the sweetest dog we have ever had. "Velcro" dog sure describes Ollie well.

He is our second homebred Champion, and he finished his title by gaining the CAC at the World Dog Show 2001, which was a very big thrill !

Happy was named this way because of her less-than-ideal body markings - and she really fits the name perfectly. She was the smallest but also the smartest of the "D" litter. With her low profile way of doing she manages to ilude Fanny's bossy ways. When lights go off, she jumps on the bed and she stays there all night long. She sure has a wonderful temperament. On the "minus" side - she's always hungry, and steals everything edible at her reach (and sometimes even what is not at her reach. Well, supposedly ...).
 
 

Blossom has a very sweet, yet mischievous look. By the way she jumps, one would say she has springs in her feet. She is a sort of Jekill and Hyde character - when she is alone, she is the sweetest girl you could imagine; with the other dogs, she is the most boisterous and the noisiest. She loves playing ball, though her true favourite passtime is chasing flying hair ...

Though she doesn't like shows she managed to finish her Champion title, which makes her our third Champion.
 
 

Zorra is one of the latest daughters of our Oliver. She has a truly wonderful character, and loves people. Her best pal, quite surprisingly, is Blossom, and the two are always finding some new funny things to do - in their opinion, of course ... 

Zoe is our youngest, and much wanted, litttle one. She is our first Old English Sheepdog - that is, she is the first one that is not a Bobtail, and has a beautiful, always wagging, tail. She has a wonderful character, very sweet and playful, though she is a bit noisy. She is also very smart. She is named after a film whose title I've always loved (the film itself is a little bit silly ...), starred by Meg Ryan (so, in fact, she should have been named Meggie, but my daughter mixed up the names ...)

Woody is our latest adition to the family. He has the compact body, the solid, wide rear and effortless movement that characterizes his line. Besides, he has the most wonderful character you could wish for. He's not much of the kind of begging for attention, but he's always following me. When I think of where he might be, I just look down at my feet, and there he is. OK, he seems to be always hungry and steels every bit of food he finds unattended (and also attended, but not much... ), but no one is perfect. We hope he will be a great asset for our breeding. He made friends easily with "Noisy" Zoe, who has not always taught him the right things ...

We deeply thank Martin Doherty (Auriga Kennels) for the trust he has put on us and for chosing us this wonderful dog.
