Snowstorm February 6, 2010 is leaving LOTS of snow behind!
I have a lovely female puppy
that I'd like to co-own with someone living within about an hour of me, so she could be
shown
and possibly bred in the future. If that sort
of arrangement interests you, please give me a call. I'd be happy to let you
speak
with someone I have a dog with in the same
type situation, so you can get a feel for how I am to work with.
Ashcroft Talk Of The Town,
Marquis, was WD for his first point at just over a year old in West Friendship,

If you are
considering importing a dog from Sweden, talk to the Lidsells of Sandy And Blues
Bedlington Terriers. Elvira (Ashcroft
Lucky American Dream) produced
beautiful puppies in her first litter; her
second litter, born in early December, has 5 females,
2 males - a lovely group to select from. You can reach
Lena Lidsell at

Ch Sandy And Blues Silvia Of Sweden
(Vicky, ViVi, Victoria - depending upon
her behavior!)
September 27, 2009 my lovely import "Vicky" became new
Champion Sandy And Blues Silvia Of Sweden. Named for the current
and much loved Queen of Sweden, Vicky is a lovely bitch
with an Ashcroft dam, and a Swedish sire who goes back to some
outstanding English dogs. My sincere thanks to the
Lidsell family of Sweden for letting me bring her here, and especially to
Victoria Lidsell, who takes such loving care of her dam
Elvira.
I am THRILLED to announce the first Ashcroft-bred
dog with an Earth Dog title. Karen and Al Miller's lovely sandy female
Ashcroft Sangeo Savanna JE completed the
requirements for an AKC junior earth dog title 10/30/09. Their younger dog,
Ch Ashcroft Orion is right on her heels with one leg
toward his title. They also competed in an AWTA trial and BOTH earned
their Certificate of Gameness! Orion and Savanna represented the breed at the AKC Meet
The Breeds event in NYC in the
breed booth and at the earth dog demonstration.
October 5, 2009 Ashcroft Sangeo Savanna earned her
first JE leg for owners Al and Karen Miller - now each of their dogs has
one leg toward their earth dog title. Savanna covered
30 feet and 2 turns underground in 7 seconds!

Ashcroft Orion continued his enthusiasm for earthdog events, and
earned his first JR Earthdog leg!
Roger finished his AKC championship with 3 majors. Now
CH Ashcroft Rogers Tivoli,
his first litter is on the ground here at Ashcroft (see puppies page).
May 23-24 a group of Bedlington folks went earth dogging at Crosswicks farm in NJ. It was great fun -

win during the Harrisburg PA circuit.
