Sire: RE Fandy Black de Condivicnum (Frn) - Dam: Shary del Castel Sardo (Imp Ndl)

Gina was a kind natured and gentle girl, born in Australian quarantine, she was a daughter of the gorgeous and famous French stud dog RE Fandy Black de Condivicnum.
She liked to cuddle and was quite content to curl up on my (her) bed. In her younger days Gina's favourite pastime (when I wasn't home to follow around), was to run around barking, stirring up the other dogs.
In her youth Gina’s goals in life were simple - to get her paws on my bantam chooks (for her own devilish purpose), or, chase the cows.
In maturity although she would still have liked to play chase the chook I suspect, she discovered there were other things more important like "FOOD" and "PUPPIES" .... anyone's puppies - Gina would often help to look after any of the other girls pups.

We said goodbye to our sweet and gentle girl on the 5th June 2005 - given sleep due to cancer of the stomach.

My fondest memories of Gina;

Gina lying with her head on my pillow stretched across my bed, waiting for me to get in before she moved to her special foam basket by my bedside, where she slept each night from the time I was blessed with her.

Looking into those beautiful and intelligent eyes.

Gina retired from showing in 1997 mainly due to her boredom with it all ....... lol.
My funny girl, who used to lie down in the show ring when she was bored, or the weather reached over 22 Celsius.

Gina was the most wonderful mother, she loved and took the greatest of care of her own puppies and felt it was her duty to help take care of my other girls puppies when they had them as well. She would sit for hours starring longingly into the whelping box or room of whovever had puppies, she'd help clean them if they let her.

Gina loved everyone and she was loved by many people in return, she had/has some very special friends who will miss her nearly as much as I will.

Your four legged family will miss you too, once again reunited with your best friend Roxie, God bless my beautiful girl....
