2010 News
28/12/10 Exciting times at Malicloy Park today, Stormie' pups are now 9 weeks old and heading to their new homes..... They have all been such characters and we know everyone will have so much fun!! Stormie has been the best Mother to these puppies and is by far the most attentive Mum we've ever seen. We are so proud of her.... 19/10/10 Stormie's pups are now 3 weeks old. They are so cute and Stormie is doing a great job of looking after them. We managed to get a few photos today of the pups out in the sun. They were so cute and we can start to see each of their little personalities.
25/9/10 Some good news today..... Holly's favourite dog Stormie had 8 puppies via 'C -Section'. All are healthy and Storm was kind enough to give a fair selection of each sex to choose from, 4 boys and 4 girls! Mum and puppies are doing really well. All 8 puppies would like to extend their gratitude towards their dad 'Clarence' for being such a Handsome sperm donor.
15/9/10 Well done to Tom & Chantelle for passing Bosco's Bronze Companion Obedience Class. He definately takes after his father 'Angus' in that regard as well as in the looks department.
7/9/10 Today, our girl Lucy (Vegamo's Lady of the Midnight Sun (imp. NOR)) won Best of Breed at South Australia's largest All Breeds Show..... the Adelaide Royal Show. Lucy's daughter Daisy also won her class and showed like a trooper. Throwing in a kangaroo hop every now and then just to make sure people were looking at her. Thanks to her owners (David and Leanne) for bringing her down and helping answer all the general public's questions on the breed.
21/8/10 Fabulous news today!!! Stormie has been confirmed pregnant. We're very excited and we would really like to thank Monash Vet Clinic in Melbourne for being so helpful and for being so instrumental in getting Storm pregnant. Fingers crossed now, hope all goes according to plan.
27/7/10 We have mated our girl Stormie (Branbern Storm in a Teacup) to a dog in Victoria called Clarence (Zollikon Dream Machine). Many thanks to Emma Sankey of Zollikon Bernese for making this possible. Clarence is a lovely big, broad dog who has an impeccable temperament and weighs in at a whopping 57kgs. He's huge...!!! Clarence has a hip score of 6:6 and he has clear elbows, 0:0. Stormie has a hip score of 3:4 and clear elbows, 0:0. Clarence is exactly what Stormie calls for and we can't wait to see what this litter produces. Litter will be due around the 25th of September. Below are pictures of both Clarence (left) and Stormie.
28/6/10 Our dearest Stormie received her PennHIP results back today.....she was scored in the 70th percentile. A great result...!! To look at other PennHIP scores of dogs in Australia look at our Data base on the Links Page
27/6/10 Today our little girl Daisy went to her new family in Adelaide. She will still be visiting us periodically, however we are so happy she has found such a loving home with Leanne & David + the cat Samantha and resident 2-metre Carpet Python! *********************************************
25/6/10 We have launched our new business "Barossa Horse Drawn Weddings" with the purchase of an imported 11-seater vis-a-vis limousine to be pulled by two of our Clydesdales, Annie and Magnus.

Whilst advertising and web design are still being finalised, some 2010 Bookings for Spring have already been accepted and further enquiries are welcome. *********************************************
13/6/10 Fabulous news..... our Pingu won Reserve Bitch Challenge at the 10th Anniversary BMD Club of Victoria National Specialty Show, and only at the tender age of 19 months old! It was an amazing day with an astonishing 106 entries, the largest entry recieved at a single show in Australia. We would like to thank Satu Yla-Mononen from Finland for her recognition of our girl. It was a pleasure to have met and showed under such a lovely judge and one so well respected around the world. Pingu won her Intermediate class from an entry of sixteen bitches and was awarded second best Bitch out of an entry of 49 Bitches for the day. Not to be forgotten also, is our little boy Derek, he was awarded 3rd in his class of 6 Baby Puppies. Below is pictured Ben showing Pingu on the day of the Specialty...Satu said of 'Pingu' (Malicloy Against All Odds)......"Medium sized, excllent proportions. Feminine head, could have a little more stop. Excellent chest and body, excellent bone and angulations. Correct tail set and carriage. Moves well, excellent coat and markings."
29/5/10 Such an exciting arrival was bestowed upon Holly and I today. We welcomed our little baby girl that we called "Millie Grace Edna Taylor" into the world (Poor kid...what a mouthful!!! He he he) She was born at 6:41pm and weighed 6lb 8oz's.
11/5/10 Tom and Chantelle have sent some new pictures of Bosco through. Apparently he can Sit, Shake Hands, Lay down and has almost mastered Rolling Over. All at only 9 weeks old! I wish Derek and Daisy were half as obedient..... Hmmmmmm......
7/5/10 We have now created a new Data Base which contains PennHIP results from various dogs throughout Australia. Anyone with results they wish to submit is welcome. It is meant to be an open Data Base where hopefully everyone doing PennHIP within Australia will give results freely. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly! Look at www.malicloy.com/PennHIP.html it is on our website under the Links Page.Also we have added a page which contains all the Malicloy Litters and their litter information. Look at the bottom of "Our Dogs" page to find the link or follow the link on our "Links" page.

30/4/10 Malicloy Black Velvet (called "Bosco") has gone to live with his new family today. Bosco is such a happy little pup, he didn't even look back as he went off to his new home. We wish Tom and Chantelle all the best as they start their new life together.
3/3/10 We are to happy announce our girl Lucy has given birth to 3 healthy puppies. 2 boys and a girl. Lucy was put to the same stud dog (Angus- Anahera Epic Steam) as our "A" litter. Therefore both Pingu and Missy are half sisters to these puppies.
