AUSTRALIAN TERRIERS
To own an Australian Terrier
Is to say you have a friend
A tenacious little warrior
Faithful to the end
The AUSSEE site is a serendipitous collection of people, ideas, cats and dogs of all kinds (especially AUSTRALIAN TERRIERS) that have brought joy and charm to my life. I show and co-own my Australian Terriers with Carol Sazama (WISMISS KENNEL) who has most generously shared with me her love for and her vast knowledge of these wonderful little dogs.
WISMISS has been much enriched by the collaboration with Kim Occhiuti and her wonderful dog, Ch. Aka Inu Zu's Petl t' the Metl , "Mario ."
We also welcome our new collaboration with Sabine Baker and Grace Cartwright and Ch. Aussome Kiss of the Dragon, " Mellie" and our long distance collaboration with Jim Jones(Alazarin) and John Davidson( Rebelglen) of Australia.
Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring--it was peace. Milan Kundera
