Delighted to read my dog's name, Azenda Frankanuff ('Frankie') mentioned in your blog. I presume you're talking about the same one, the great-great grandmother of the Crufts winner. She died in 1995 and, amazingly, because my wife and I didn't show her although we knew Veronica Tudor-Williams and she was keen to mate Frankie with her Australian champion, whom she believed to be really good (he was) but at the time was not as highly regarded as she wanted him to be: his subsequent performance confirmed Veronica's view. (She was an amazingly astute and interesting - original - woman). You won't believe it but we were sold Frankie, whom we instantly loved, in 1981, as the runt of the litter ('too long in the back' as the fearsome Margaret Christy-Davies said to us). But Frankie had a sweet nature and obviously carried the genes as the Crufts win some years ago proved. We couldn't believe it at the time; couldn't believe it. She had more hits on the internet than I had! She had four puppies; three bitches and a really sweet boy who did his best! Best wishes, Stephen Guest London UK
