Paddington while being gold & white also carries both Black and Blue

Paddington was named after the famous Paddington Bear due to his being basically the same colour.  He is my young clown who is always on the go and ready to play.  Paddington gained his Championship in style finishing with a 5 point major at the end of last year and then four 3 point majors early this year.

Paddington is currently living in Texas with his coowner Carol Watson of Bismark Kennels.  Carol is starting out Paddy's training for agility .....something that this young boy seems to excell at.  Paddington is known for being a ham when there is a crowd on hand for him to entertain.  At shows he loves to be out where he can say hello to anyone who walks by.......the larger the crowd the more he plays to it.

It was fun to show this young dog in conformation but we did manage to cause quite a few judges to go and look at the standard.  As a baby Paddington was a very pale cream colour and as he grew his colour darkened to the lovely rich gold that you see today.  His gorgeous head and lovely colour make many take a second look.

As well as agility Paddington will be starting his herding training this summer.  From his first few times on sheep he showed a natural ability.  At home he practises his skills on the other dog......crouching and flanking them to make them do his bidding.  Hopefully this behavoir will flow through to the sheep.

I want to say a very special thank you to Dr Jaime Montalvo for the priviledge of being able to own this lovely golden boy.
