Kendi´s Story

Finally at the 13th of July, 2001,

United Airlines took me to San Francisco, where I was cheerfully expected by our friends Diane and Ken as well as by Linda. After about 45 minutes we were in California, Los Gatos, Santa Cruz Hwy, the original home of Kendi. There I was cheerfully welcomed again by all the wonderful Newfoundlands of Kendian`s:

The “old” K.C. London (father of Kendi), Andrew (grandfather of Kendi), Lexus (mother of Kendi) and, of course, all the puppies. Finally I saw all the  “girls” and simply  all of them were absolutely beautiful and so sweet. But my heart belonged to Kendi  at once which was originally called “Londonette”. However, she got the name “Kendi” which is put together out of Kendall and Diane, consequently she reminds us of two so wonderful people and friends every day. 

Yes and then I spent one week with Diane and Ken as well as with Linda Codgia, the breeder of Kendi´s mother Lexus. Thank you Linda for always believing in these wonderful dogs and that you breed the so beautiful, typfull Lexus by coupling your female dog  “Ch. Pouch Cove´s Philosophie” with “Ch. Pouch Cove´s Goodfellow” (Andrew).

 I was included into the family from the first minute, just as if I belonged to them since always. Yes and then they showed me some of the beautiful sights of California.

And we have spent many hours with a little bit of champagne and cosy chatting or simply with playing with the boys and girls. Yes, we had a lot of fun. And don´t forget "Arnold" arnold.jpg (31181 Byte) he made us love with his language knowledge and he is a member or that "Team" and is really often with on tour to the different shows. Every time when they travell with their "Motorhome" he is the "Star" and is always the Entertainer for Fun and Action!

 The days passed by far too fast and then the not so nice moment came and we had to say good-bye.  “Good-bye” is not right but saying  “See you again” is, since we are sure that we are going to see us again, no matter if it is in the USA or in Europe.  Diane and Linda took me to the airport to San Francisco, this time with Kendi, and a short time later the Boeing 747 by the Lufthansa took us to Europe were Kendi and I were cheerfully expected by my family. badmoments.jpg (42633 Byte)

Yes and regarding to Kendi there is nothing more to say than that it was love at first sight with everybody.

Kendi lives with us in Austria since July 19th 2001 and settled in very nicely. Our boys accepted Kendi at once and they are already a great team.

But we know that she is very much missed by Diane and Ken in California, yet they have entrusted her to us.

We can only thank Diane and Ken by giving Kendi a good home and she is going to  get all our love.

At the end we would like to especially thank Diane again for everything she did for the puppies. We can see at Kendi how much she is related to humans, how much love she got and how great she was socialised. She has such a great personality and is not afraid of anything.

 Thanks, that I had the opportunity to see all the wonderful dogs, which mean so much to me, and that we now got the female dog out of our dream line.

 For me it remains an unforgettable trip.

Thank you my friends!
