Velvet Touch
"Velvet"


Velvet
was bred and owned by Kathy
Belville (Romyldale). She is
honoured here as one of Caitlin's
champion children and as the
gentle, sweet soul she was.
I had the very great honour
of showing this beautiful girl
to her Canadian championship.
She inherited a wonderful trait
from her dam - natural obedience.
When Kathy said that I could
take Velvet off lead to exercise,
I was terrified she would bolt
- she didn't really know me.
But when Velvet wouldn't move
away from me, I had little choice
so off came the leash. Bless
her heart - she walked off to
a discrete distance, co-operated
immediately, and then returned
to my side.

Velvet's
possessed an extraordinary front
assembly - her shoulders blended
beautifully into her neckline
and created an outline that
was breathtaking. Her beautiful
eyes "spoke volumes"
and she was one of those dogs
- like her dam - with whom a
silent and profound conversation
was possible. Rest well sweet
girl.
