26th September 2010 -  "Hi Ian and Jill, we are rapt with Solo, so far so good. She has the most endearing temperament, a real tribute to Geilo. Her mother has a great temperament as well but I almost call her too pushy. Solo, just is a polite gentle pup who just won't leave my side when she is off lead.. she is just gorgeous. I saw Freya on your site, she looks really nice". (Felicity Broome, Bernation, Australia).

 

 

13th June 2010 - Congratulations to Felicity and Geilo's frozen puppy Bernation Solo (Solo) for their great result at the Australian Speciality Show on Sunday 13th June 2010. Solo was 2nd in her class, she was beaten by Nicole Lennon's puppy girl, another girl Rush from an older frozen litter from semen imported from New Zealand by Felicity was 3rd to Solo and her sister was 5th. We believe that Solo was one of the youngest in the class. In Australia puppies can be shown from four months old unlike the UK where it is six months old. The judges critique for Solo is as follows: Graded very promising: Strong very promising, correct bite, stong female head, not full pigmentation on the nose, good neck and topline, Excellent body and tail set. A bit soft in the pasterns. Moves with good drive, bit loose in the elbows. excellent termperament. Short coat, good markings. 

We are also very pleased for Felicity and Solo, the judges critique is very good - all we would say is that where the judge stated Solo was loose in her pasterns and a bit loose in her elbows and also that she did not have full pigmentation on the nose these are only to be expected in a very young puppy.
