Great news from earlier yesterday. I had to call the Kennel Club to check on something and while I was on I asked about Re-Registering my old Affix I used when I showed dogs previously (I didn't think I would be allowed)

They have said that after I pay the re rgistration fee (same amount as if applying for a new affoix I can be)

BRONHEIM

once more

Having shown Bostons & Boxers a number of years ago, and since I lost my last Boston 8 years ago, I have felt the need to have another.  I have always thought of them as little people on 4 legs and such great characters.

I have had my eye open and ear to the ground for about 5 years looking out for something special to come along and then finally, in January of this year - it did

AND NOW

***

Since my last Boston died about 2009 I have been hankering after another. I had had the feelers out and made enquiries for quite some time, but the right dog just hadn't come along - that was until late on in January of this year.....2018

She was bred by Kelly Homer over near Middlesborough & although Kelly doensn't show (yet) she has bought her foundation stock very well

......and when I saw this picture of a puppy for sale online, I knew right away, here was the one I had been looking for

This is young Alice, learning to free stand, without me on the other end of the lead

Roxxilu American Gentleman x Ir.Ch.Basterberri Mermelada (1CC 1RCC) - Imp Spain

Bred by Paula Hamilton - TAKAIRA, Northern Ireland

arriving soon

Pet Name  StanLee

I have to say a HUGE thank you to Paula for entrusiting me with this lovely young man. He has been loving and expertly brought up so far with love and & and that will not change when he moves over the water in a week or so.

He is already showing a superb temperament, ideal for a show prospect, full of himself and with confidence in bucket loads.

Paula originally called him 'Marvel' due to the 'American Avenger' part of his kennel name, however, as I like all my dogs to have human names, STANLEE (Stanley) is how he shall be known here at Bronheim.

I wanted to keep a 'connection' to his orignal given name, and as Stan Lee was the creator of the 'Marvel Comic dynasty, StanLee appeared very appropriate.

I look forward to posting more pics of him as he grows up and keeping you all posted of his progress in the Ring 2020
