Introducing
TAIRNBACHER WINKIE
WOO 'A'Z' BSC.1
(R.I.P
2008)


After many years of fighting allergies and
associated problems and with the associated
treatments that eventually led to more
problems,, Karma was put to rest at age 9.
Karma's introduction to Leabashiba came about
thanks to her caring breeder Sandra Williams of
Tairnbacher Kennels, who rescued her back from
an abusive situation. Karma's nature was so
loving and trusting that she did not seem to be
affected from these early experiences.
Karma quickly became a family favourite, she
would snuggle up to you on your lap whenever the
opportunity arose, play games and be one of my
obedience demonstration dogs at our local social
obedience dog club. She had two litters in her
time before nearly dieing of Pyometra
(thankfully my vet was able to save her life for
she was just hours away from death)
One litter bearing Leabashiba Carmas Solo 'A'Z'
and the other Leabashiba De Pistol 'A'Z' BSC.1
and Ch. Leabashiba Delta Force 'A'Z' BSC.1, E.T.
During the second litter, she was asked to
foster two pups from another breeders litter as
they had far too many pups for their mother to
manage, Karma never objected, gave them a smell,
a lick and kiss and snuggled into them, where
they became one of her own.
Everyone that met Karma loved her and quoting a
fellow obedience instructors words during a work
out "she really loves you, has not taken her
eyes off you during the exercises" That was the
sort of German Shepherd Dog Karma was and we
shared a special bond.
Karma was our very first Breed Survey Class 1,
whose critique speaks for itself. I will forever
be indebted to Sandra for entrusting Karma with
us and we were very fortunate to have Tallis and
PK keep her presence alive for us, as they are
very much their mothers children
We miss you Karma and there is no denying when
you were created, He broke the mold.
Run free my dearest friend
