The kennels are situated on the A723 one mile from the market town of Strathaven.
We have been boarding cats and dogs here for over 30 years. Breeding boxers since David and I were married several years before we came to live here which was in the late sixties.
I had my first boxer given to me while still at school by my aunt who owned her dam and had bred from her in 1953.
I sometimes wonder if we inherit our love of certain breeds as my aunt had three boxers one whom she bought at a show in Manchester in the fifties where he had won a first prize.
During the sixties the Burstall Kennel was disbanded when Major Bostock died I bought one of the bitches from Peggy Haslam (thenThomson who handled for Burstall) she was called Burstall Miss Lacey I also bought two dogs Burstall Bugle Call and Burstall Frederick although the dogs did a lot of winning the bitch was the Star and she became my first Champion ‘Ch Burstall Miss Lacey’.
I bought a bitch from the late Peggy Penn called Stainbundorf Gremlin Cinna and mated her to Summerdale Knockout who I had aquired from Marion Fairbrother and she became our first home bred champion ‘Ch Glenauld Gossip’ at thee same time I became great friends with Shiela Law and bought Blupines Arabella & Blupines Arabesque who both won several Res CC’s.
My next Champion came via Lynn Llewelyn-Davies a son of her Ch Delapoer War Paint namely ‘Ch Delapoer Pied Piper’ my first male Champion. I also owned Delapoer Night Owl who won 1CC and several reserves.
At this point the children were growing up and wanted ponies so I left the ring to allow them to take up firstly Pony Club and then Show Jumping at which they were both successful and competed in Scottish Teams. I think I must have missed the breeding aspect of this sport so Lynn and I started breeding Dutch Warmblood Sports Horses, horses which we bred have been very successful all over Britain.
In the late nineties after Lynn had had a nasty riding accident and had been told not to ride for 3 months we had two nice boxer puppies so I took her along to some open shows and look what happened she is now as hooked on showing & breeding quality boxers as myself.
Both Lynn and Suzanne joined the Glenauld affix in the nineties and we have since made up another male Champion ‘Ch & Ir Ch Gervalmark at Gryffe via Glenauld JW’ and a Pembroke Welsh Corgi Champion ‘Ch Manto Kid Sheleen’ bred by the well known corgi specialist Frances Toman from Ireland.
