Tribute For Kaya

Fame

In the spotlight.....
Being famed...being a celebrity....
Some love it, others don't....
When you have certain qualities it will be noticed one day and there you go.....
Publicity....into the light....
And there you go...you suddenly have a manager, a promoter...
Photos are shot, autograph hunters.....a paw....
Dogs......
Some have a happy life, but the majority is suffering and is, in the best case, housed in shelters...
It's good to know that there are so many volunteers doing their utmost for trying to bring them a better future....
At our place the chows have a good life. We give them the best possible and when one of them is suffering everything is done to bring comfort.

This page is dedicated to the 'publicity' and the fame Beer, Pau Lin, Shadow, Kaya, Xiong and Kiang got and will get.......
The Chow Celebrities.......Happy Dutch Chows !
Unfortunately we had to say goodbye to our beloved Kaya on July 16, 2008.

	NetChows is a successful Chow search and news source for the chow lover. Part in it is the famed chow calendar. The photo contributions can come from everywhere. Of course it's an honour learning that Sir Beer, for September 2003, and both Master Pau Lin and Sir Beer, for August 2005, became selected as 'chow of the month'. No better Tribute to these two fine chows, who once were the drive to start the Chow Cousins.

The Show Must Go On !

Of course people loving their pets like to show them to the world. Being excited means sharing and telling all who wanna know how happy you are with your pet. For that shows are a nice outlet and then...a champion in house. That's it. I have no objections at all in dog shows and when this is properly done we all can learn and hopefully breeders are then able to preserve the so-called breed-standard.
Showing in a ring....I have to admit I don't like it at all.
I prefer to show my excitement for the furkids through the world wide web and this "Happy Dutch Chow Site".
Kaya was showed twice and our late Pau Lin once. Yes Miss Kaya Best Puppy Of Show..... But so what?
Most important is....keeping your pets 'sound and healthy' and give them your love!

Miss Fawn got Best Puppy Of Breed and Best Puppy Of Show (Almelo, August 22, 2004)

	Vita-Texla Kaya was present, together with her grand-father Pau Lin at the Club Match of KC Almelo upon invitation of the Anhwei kennel. For Anhwei this clubmatch was the official goodbye in the successful breeding of Chows. Kaya 'came, viewed and won' easily.It was an excitement seeing beautiful Anhwei Chows!
All these bocals....A Champion?		Prosit on Peter's little girl....the champion.

In Russia the Happy Dutch Chows regular can be found in a web contest....:
