Our Cavi Boys

All our breeding age dogs are regularly heart and eye tested by specialists, and regularly certified as to their overall health by our veterinarians.

Our dogs are photographed in their natural state and habitat - they are not primped and positioned for these sessions

	Cavalrite Ned Kelly (Neddy) We have waited, and waited, and hoped and hoped for that special little man to come along and bowl us over since we lost our Benson. It took a bushranger to do it :) Little Neddy was claimed from birth. No-one else was having this little boy and as we watched him grow more like a little puppy and into a youngster, we haven't been disappointed in him in any way. His lovely happy disposition and readiness to cope with any given situation, sweetness and ability to blend in anywhere has only delighted us more. Neddy will start his show career in March 2014. We wish him every luck and every enjoyment in his new endeavour.
	Cavalrite Saltbush Bill (Willie Wonka) We have been patiently waiting for our Banjo to provide us with a protege for us to breed on with. We particularly wanted a tri boy to continue on from his father but it took a couple of years of producing beautiful puppies before our Willie Wonka arrived. At first sight we knew he was the one and he hasn't failed to cement that thought in our minds. The same gorgeous sunny personality and looks enhanced by both his father and mother, Willie has taken all our hearts, including the grumpy grannies of the household. To say we're delighted to have this little man in our lives is putting it mildly. He beguiles all that come into sight of him.
	Cavalrite Man From Ironbark (Barty) To be honest, we didn't need another boy when this little man arrived, but there was something 'special' about him from the time he was born. Somehow we never could bring ourselves to present him for adoption. In the end we named him and so the decision was made. His good looks and lovely sweet, soft but confident little personality have led us to believe that fate took a hand with this boy. He copes with two older girls with calm confidence and loves bolting around and rumbling with them. Call him in and he will squidge with delight to receive cuddles and adoration. He's such a lovely mixture and a joy to have in our midst. He'll grow up to be a handsome young man and we're busy working on him having plenty of girls to bedazzle with his sweetness.
	Cavalrite Dan Kelly (Danny) Son of Ned Kelly, this little man is shaping up to be a fitting chap to carry on the good work of his father. He seems to have Neddy's approval too because he's the only boy to be allowed to eat in peace without being yelled at, at meal times !!! Still a fluffy baby and keeping all the other boys on their toes with his love of playing and tugowars with the toys, we're totally enjoying watching him grow up. Watch this space :)

In Memorium

Roswell Just Connor (Connor)

On the evening of the 21st January, 2010 our beautiful little Connor took it upon himself to mouth a Cane Toad and despite our efforts to save him we didn't even have time to get him to the vet before he died. Folks it took 15 minutes for the poison to kill our adored and beautiful boy, so please be careful of your dogs and cane toads. It is commonly thought that Queensland bred dogs seem to have an inate knowledge of the dangers of these toads, and we have certainly found this to be seemingly so, and have only experienced interest in the vermin from dogs born down south, but don't take any chances. We had missed a very big one in our nightly patrols to keep the cane toad population down. Try to keep your yards as cane toad free as possible, and express to your dog that cane toads are off limits. I certainly wouldn't want any of you to go through the distress of trying to save an adored little dog the way we have just experienced.

Connor left us a beautiful girl - Ebony - and we have also used his handsome son Max in our breeding programme.

Cavalrite Zane Gray (Zane)

We were absolutely devastated with the loss of Zane's daddy when he mouthed the mother of all cane toads. We believe that at the time he was protecting his girl (Zena) from the nasty monster.

Connor had already mated with Zena and we looked with fingers and toes crossed for a boy in the litter to carry on Connor's good work. If we were to lose Connor, this mating was the best we could wish for to keep his protege from.

Zena gave us two boys and Zane was our choice to carry on for his father.

When, despite the fervent efforts of our vets, we lost little Zane in September 2010 as a result of concertina'd bowel caused by him chewing on a long length of string, words can't describe the devastation.

This little boy had both his parents' sweet and loving nature and has left a huge gap in our daily Cavi love doses.

He will always be sadly missed, just like his beautiful daddy.

Winjax Just Benson (Benson)

Benson is one of our three Winjax dogs. He has the element of 'quality' of conformation and markings that we have come to expect from this line. He has lovely bone and a wonderful, placid and sweet personality. He is loved by both humans and dogs of all ages, easily mixing with all. He's a perfect 'gentleman' with the lades who are quick to become coy in his presence. He is well balanced with younger male dogs, showing a placid and patient nature, but will bring the young fellas into line if necessary.

Sadly, our Benson is getting on in years now and only sires a litter here and there.
