Our Dearest Harry
Who would have
thought when you came to us, that you would turn out the way you
did. You were not only a thorough gentleman and companion to us,
but an example to all the upcoming Tibs at Barrajy. You were the
one that told all the young ones how to behave, and what was expected of
them, both at home, and in the showring. You were a hit with all
you met, including all of Tim's young girl friends. They thought
if they pampered and petted you, that would be the way to get close to
him. For all those long hours you stood and showed your heart out
in Child Handlers, and never put a foot wrong, for the many Best in Group
and Royal Best of Breeds, and all the Best in Show awards that you took
out, for your sons and daughters and their progeny you left us,
For all of these things and more we thank you "Harry".
You have
left us, but you will never be forgotten.
You will live
on in our thoughts forever.
Rest in Peace
'Old Man'
Judy and Tim Gard
Harry was the turning
point for Barrajy kennels. Several decades of selective breeding had resulted
in some excellent dogs. But when the decision to put Aust Ch. Barrajy Shem
Mo with Tygil Kennel's own Dzara, the results were beyond all expectations.
Harry was the epitomy
of his breed, both in type and character. And, even more amazing, he passed
all his traits on to his progeny.
Thanks to Harry,
Barrajy Kennels can now be rightfully known as the home of some of Australia's
finest Tibetan Spaniels.
Our debt to dear
Harry can never be re-paid.
