Newsflash!! Louie is now Irish AND International Champion!!
Hello and welcome to the home of Fabiana Lhasa Apsos
My name is William Totton. I have owned Lhasas for 4 years and have been
exhibiting for the last 3 years, and what a wonderful 3 years it has been. It was when I met Mr Aaron Brown, a well known exhibitor of Shih Tzu's, that I really got the bug. With all his help and expertise I decided to give it a go.
I was introduced to Mr Stephen Lloyd of the Owenavera kennels here in Northern
Ireland. After carefull consideration this was were I got my first show girl 'Owenavera Miss-Tique' a beautifull gold bitch.
After showing for a while and having great success with her, I decided to get a kennel name of my own.....FABIANA......
In 2005 Asha qualified for 'Show Pup Of The Year', I was having such a great time with her I decided I was ready to get myself a dog
puppy. I scanned papers looked at web sites, by chance came across a gold and white parti dog advertised in 'Dog World Newspaper'.
This is when I met Miss Naomi Hardman of the Nemmi kennel in Birmingham. She had bred him herself and was reluctant to let him go, but after thinking about the home he was coming to, she decided i could have him. I was overjoyed.
Little did I know that this puppy would turn out to be my first Champion! Irish Champion Nemmi Shine On Me at Fabiana, and the sun did shine at Dundalk. This is when Mrs Marrion Spavin gave him his final
Green Star at just 20 months old, to gain his Irish title.
It didnt stop there though. Mr Stephen Lloyd had asked me, would i show a bitch for him 'Owenavera Glitz And Gossip'. A grey and white parti girl. I loved her! She was half sister to Asha, and i never thought twice about it. Asha was out of the ring after having puppies,
so i enjoyed showing Pheonix instead. After getting a 3rd with her in limit bitch under Madelene Lewis at Crufts, it was back to Ireland to get her final Green Stars.
So in Aug 07 at Limerick Ch show Mrs A O'brien awarded her, her final Green Star. Meaning i had made up two champions in one year, I was ecstatic!!
Thanks for taking the time to read my introduction, I hope you enjoy the rest of my site.......William x
