Beckvilla Danielle's Delight - Louis

Louis was our first bichon who came into our lives in 1990.  After making many enquiries and looking into every aspect of owning a bichon, we decided this breed was perfect as a family pet for our family with 3 children aged 12, 10 and 7.  Little did we know how much this decision would change our lives! 

Louis had a wonderful character, beautiful expression and super coat and we were persuaded to show him.  He loved the show ring and after some success we were hooked.  5 years later he was joined by our first bitch, Pepsi .........

Rusmar Dancing Rainbow at Manoir (Pepsi)

I had admired Dawn Russell's Rusmar line in particular Int Grand CH Rusmar Magic Rainbow. I was thrilled when she let me have a daughter from him.  Pepsi was shown successfully and became my foundation bitch.  She won 21 1st's at Championship level and gained a Res CC as a junior.  My thanks to Dawn for her guidance and advice in those early years.

I mated Pepsi to Janpals December's Boy at Honeylyn owned by Brenda Ellis. In her first litter of 4 she produced Manoir Dancin White Blitzer who went on to become Top Sire in 2002. It was a wonderful mating and the qualities of both Pepsi and Boysie are still seen in my bichons today.

Her second litter was back to her grandson Topper and this mating produced  Am Ch Manoir's Miracle Dancer

For her third and final litter I repeated the mating to Boysie and from her litter of 6 puppies came Nor Ch Manoir's Walibis Dream who went on to sire the World Winner in 2002

 Rusmar Magic Princess at Manoir (Princess)

Princess was mated to Blitzer and what a marriage in heaven that turned out to be!  From this first litter came Ch Manoir's Topper & Tails for Pericraig JW and Ch Manoir's Celebration A repeat mating produced Ch Manoir's Miami Vice at Elancie and Ch Manoir's Chatanooga JW		These four Champions have provided the backbone to my breeding programme. I feel very lucky to have had such a good start from two fine Rusmar bitches and Brenda Ellis's very lovely Janpal  December's Boy at Honeylyn. Princess became Top Brood Bitch and Blitzer Top Sire in 2002
