MBISS Am/Can Ch Curig FaerieTale Everlasting CGN

Jo was named after Grandmother du Pree, Johanna, as she was born on her birthday. Jo has spent her formitive years in western Canada with Juliana learning about being a show and obedience dog. She spent her summer of 2007 in Ontario attending a few shows and she also ventured into the US to pick up a major towards her American Championship. Her limited showing, with time off to raise a litter, brought her to #2 Corgi in Canada for 2007, top corgi bitch and top corgi at breed level. 2009 saw Jo travel south again where she picked up 2 more majors at the supported entries surrounding the Western Reserve Specialty, by going Best of Breed from the classes one of the days. She completed her US title at the Eukanuba cluster.

Jo was bred to Am Ch Hum’nbird Jack Sparrow for her first litter and had lovely litter of 6 puppies. Four of which have gone on to complete their championships. Jo’s second litter was to Am Ch Sandfox Medaglia D’Oro. We look forward to seeing how these 3 girls grow on.

A fish in a past life, Jo has had the pleasure of swimming in every body of water she could find between Edmonton and Victoria, including the Pacific. She is thrilled to hear that baby sister Nina and daughter Winnie are following in the family tradition of finding each and every possible body of water, big or small to immerse themselves in.
