Zebedee has proven himself over the years at all levels and under some of  the top Judges and
breeders of our time from all over the World.  I can physically only mention a few But my heart
felt thanks goes to all who have placed, appreciated or supported us honestly.  Zebedee has
continued to improve as he has matured and watching him go from the crysalis stage to the full
butterfly has been a pleasure, even if it sure took its time and with patience not usually my
fortay.

Zebedee is not a dog who  can be missed or ignored by those who know soundness and what
a true butterfly is.  He  makes everyone aware of his  presense just by standing there and  his
soundness is seen so clearly on the move, which is as near as perfection as possibly.  His
body is as well made as they come and even now at 11 he has a full set of teeth, a spring of rib,
depth of chest and a coat to die for.  He knows he is the best and has never let me or any
judges  down who have appreciated him.

However Most of all Zebedee is my Heart boy.  My Right hand man who brings much joy and
love in an other wise Dull life.   He has pretty much done everything there is to do, including
being the youngest ever registered PAT dog ( pets as Therapy ) when he passed his
assessment at 6 months to the day, passing  with flying colours.

He has also taken part in Agility for fun and exercise both here and in Ireland.  He also Took part
and passed his
Bronze, Silver and Gold Good Citizens Tests, and Won the first ever Good
Citzens class at
Crufts, where his daughter won the BCC/BOS.  He has also taken part in and
passed a basic gundog test,  where the pheasant was bigger than him. <G>

Zebedee  won UK  top stud 04 from his 1st  sired litter (of 2)  which produced,  2  champion
Bitches, one of which was a  Club BIS winner ( who actually beat him  for BIS the day he won
his Ir  Ch. Title, he got RBIS )  and both bitches  Finished Top Papillon Bitches in 04.
 Hope has
now gone on to produce a 3rd Generation Champion in her Daughter
Saffy -  Ch. Spinillons
Saffire JW SH CM who at 15 months is my youngest ever champion and also the youngest
Papillon/Bitch to Win her SH CM title.   Zebedee was the first Papillon to ever win his SH CM title
in 5 straight Shows, so looks like a bit of family rivalry there lol.

Zeb was  retired for a bit while I showed my other dogs and was accidentally pulled from
retirement  for a day out at Darlington Ch. Show  where he surprised us (not having shown for a
year )  giving us his all and then  going on  to Win Best Veteran and  the
1st Veteran Toy Group
Ever
to be  held at Darlington (Sep 06),   he was then put back in the ring for some fun and went
on to win his 8th BIS beating a full line up of  dogs that were much younger than  him. <G>

On the 9.4.07 Zebedee went with my Friend Karen to the Papillon Butterfly dogs club CH. show
and out of 302 entries,
More entries than at Crufts won his 9th BEST IN SHOW under Claire Ann
Ahern and Michael Quinny.   
WAY TO GO ZEBBY  !  

Since then barely shown he has picked up 11  Best Veteran in Shows, another Group 1
((
( Darlington 09 ) and group 3 placing there too and a few more RCC's.  Zeb is a dog who has got
better with age and who looks far better now than he did as a youngester.  Thank you to all the
judges who have honestly appreciated, realised and not penalised the fact he is better as a
Veteran.  I  did retire him again after his last BVIS but  showing is in his blood and he is looking
well, ever the Bright Spark  so he will come out again for the odd show club show here and
there lol   
 and just to prove it  Zeb was back in the Ring in Ireland  for the St patrick show 17.3.
10 and he wins Best Veteran and BOB.
 From this win he adds another title to his name CW 10 -
celtic winner 2010  Not bad for an old boy in top condition and a full set of teeth too. <G> Way to
go Zebedee !!!!!  You still Got it and I just Love Ya boy!
