"Once upon a time..."  Yes, all fairytails begin like that...

It started  1978 when we bought our first papillon, Roxina "Trollet". A red/white bitch from Mrs Kerstin Fredriksson, Tyresö  

Roxina had NordCH Arval Wickliffe "Peps" first part in "Pepejas" as grandfather.

At Trollets 1:st puppy show she was 2:nd HP after Mrs B-M Hanssons Dacapo, Judge :Mrs Cecilia Holmstedt.

1979 Trollet had her 1:st litter with Int-NordCH Pepejas Adras (S SF CH Siljans Pirre- Nord Ch Pikina) witch means that even he hade Peps as grandfather.

There where 3 bitches in the litter and I still get tears in my eyes, when i remember how it felt when Kerstin Fredriksson said to me after the first 2 puppies: Now the 3:rd is on the way so you have to take  over. If you going to breed puppies ...The 3:rd was my Cilla-Gabriella. 

Yes, we called her the whole name and she went NordCH 1982.

We went to many shows with Jennica Lindvall (Chatoys). In spite of varying results, we had a lot of fun. Good judges or bad ones, there was always something to be happy about. Trollet got a few litters more. We kept one male, Roxinas Nalle Puh (Winnie the Pooh), who became our daughter Ann Sofies favourite.

I sat on the board of the national breed club "Papillon-Ringen" in the early eighties. At the time the challenge prize "Darkest Papillon Eyes" was instigated. 

Showing and breeding had to be curtailed in 1985 due to illness in the family, and the situation stayed the same until 1989 when my parents had passed away.

 But new fantastic experiences awaitend me : The grandchildren:

-91 came Camilla

-93 Andreas (grandmother on fulltime)

But we still hade our Papillon's: Siljans Jasmine, Chatoy´s Christian Dior, Chatoy´s Lord Nelson, Pepejas Tussan aso...

Our dogs have all reach a very high age, between 13-17 years old.

1997 I become a dog grandmother to the "Wheaten"  Torsten (Gladöviks Torsten Studebaker) Ann Sofie and husband had him nine months after their wedding. The moral is high you know. (hi,hi)

-98 came there two legging Patrik and my son's Pincher, Nixon (LillaEnebys Nixon)

-99 Rough Collie Sigge (Brighthills Brewster)

00- Niklas, Patriks little brother

-01  we had grief  in the family when Torsten died in a Kidney-disease, barely 4 years old

-02 came instead the smooth collie Merlin (OneWay´s Firetiger)

Somewhere between Patrik and Sigge started my interest for shows and maybe a new puppy of my own again. So when I got to wish what I wanted for my 50:th birthday, it was just that. My husband Kjell had probably spoken to some breeders on the phone during Oct-Nov-99, but didn't dare to surprise me with a puppy.

I got a birthday card with money,  leash and puppy food. A good start ahead. Now everybody thought that I wold run away to the nearest litter box, but not Me....I took it easy

Autumn 2000 we found "Trolle" (Pepejas Rosselini)

-01 it was time again....Now came "Robin" (Pepejas Moliere) and

03...."Trulle" (Pearl Collections Turmalin) , who is an offspring from Trolle, the smooth collie Cessna (OneWays Obsession) and our son-in-law Roberts American Akita "Yosho" (Echo Star's Double Trouble)

2004-03-19 became My daughter Ann Sofiea  partner in the kennel.

Now we are back in the show-rings and with our breeding.
