Jonquilow - Our Dogs

In 1999 both Aust.Ch.Jayzer Cozette and Aust.Ch.Bigglesmere's Liv'n Doll (Imp.U.K.) were mated to Aust.Ch.Bigglesmere's Jolly Swagman, and both whelped five puppies each within 16 days of each other. From those litters we are proud to present the first Jonquilow Lowchens.

B.I.S.S. Aust.Ch.Walzn Matilda - "Matilda". d.o.b: 18/06/99
(Aust.Ch.Bigglesmere's Jolly Swagman (Imp.U.K.) x Aust.Ch.Jayzer Cozette

At the age of 10 months, Matilda took the Best in Specialty Show award the Lowchen Club of N.S.W. Specialty Show, judged by Mrs Janet Edwards (Cleeview, U.K.) With a record entry of 72 Lowchens, Mrs. Janet Edwards is a Breed Specialist Judge and breeder of Lowchens of 25 years standing. It was, therefore, a very special thrill for us at Jonquilow when Matilda won Best Exhibit in Specialty Show under such a knowledgable and experienced Judge.

Matilda has since gone on to achieve her Australian Championship title at 13 months of age. In addition to her Best Exhibit in Specialty Show award, she has gained multiple Best in Group, Runner Up Best in Group, and Class in Group Awards. She has continued to build on her early success and fulfil her potential as a Lowchen of classic type and temperament. She attracts admiration wherever she is shown being of lovely type, with beautiful sound movement. Matilda is a great "character" with a wonderful mischievous temperament. Matilda, like all our Lowchens, shares our homes as much loved members of our families.

In October 2001 B.I.S.S.Ch.Jonquilow Waltzn Matilda, and B.I.S.S. Ch.Jonquilow Mozarts Pride achieved a unique "double" when they won Best in Group and Runner Up Best in Group respectively at the Southern Highlands Kennel Club show, under judge Miss M. Joyce (Vic)
