CH GAYEL'S POOLSIDE MATINEE

MATTIE HAS HER CHIC NUMBER

CH Gayel's Poolside Matinee

Mattie is often on our home page as she often has reason to "brag". Poolside just received Mattie's CHIC number (46500) making her the 7th Japanese Chin to qualify. Her housemate Kimberly (CH Langcroft In Style ROM) was number 5.

Poolside has always considered the combination of health and type to be of equal and vital importance.

Specialty wins (BOS National Sweeps, two consecutive AOM at JCCA National Specialties) and dam of two litters with one Champion (CH Poolside Sorcerer's Stone) and one major pointed (Poolside Heaven and Earth) and two 5 month old promising show boys plus "almost" a granddam from son Poolside The Magic Dragon X CH Langcroft In Style ROM. Not bad for a 4 year old who shares her show attitude with all her kids.

Poolside thanks again Mattie's breeder, Gale Rivers for letting us have this very special girl. Way to go Mattie!
We have just completed MAJOR UPDATES AND REORGANIZATION of our website. Please take a look when you have a moment. Thanks.

The pictures on this page and other portrait type pictures unless indicated otherwise are copyrighted by Sunshine ProductsWelcome to Poolside Toys where our dogs are members of the family. Poolside Toys is a very small show kennel. We have had the privilege of acquiring our first Japanese Chin, Kimberly, from her breeders, Marie and Harold Langseth, Langcroft Kennels, followed shortly by Mattie, breeder Gale Rivers. Additional foundation dogs, Charlie, breeders Marie and Harold Langseth, Kinsey, breeder Gale Rivers and Magic, breeder Tony Galliano complete our crew. Our original Toy breed was Pomeranians but with the health issues in this breed we have chosen not to have any more Pom litters. Our goal remains breeding for health and breeding to the standard.

Poolside is the younger sister kennel of our first show venture -- TipTop Terriers. We are the proud breeders of 14 West Highland White Terrier Champions, owners of 5 more Westie Champions and 1 Norfolk Champion. Our wins have included National and Regional Specialties and the Breed at Westminster. Our last Westie living at home, CH. TipTop's Baccarat, died unexpectedly on June 4, 2003. Please see Gone But Not Forgotten.

On rare occasions, puppies or older dogs are available to approved homes. All dogs sold as pets are spayed or neutered before they leave our home. All dogs are sold with "first right of refusal" for the life of the dog.

Breeding for health means to us that we take careful stock of pedigrees and that we remove from our breeding program those dogs with a high likelihood of producing genetically transmitted problems. We are in the process of testing all breeding stock for soundness of patellas, eyes, hearts and thyroid. We highly support the recently created Canine Health Information Center (CHIC), a centralized canine-health database which will maintain test information recommended by the parent clubs such as the Japanese Chin Club of America.
