n December 2005 I decided to mate Mabel to Caprilli's Cool as Ice JW (Monty). It did not work out, after a year of trying Mabel was spayed this April. Monty then tragically died in May.
 
Having been very dissappointed that the planned mating between Monty and our own Mabel did not work out, we are now very excited to be having a pup from his Mum, Fancy.
 
We are finally looking forward to welcoming Swedish lines to Dallydyl.
 
I would like to thank Stephanie at Caprilli for the patience she has shown over the past year, but mainly, I thank her for allowing Mathilda to come and live with us.

Saunders Caprilli's Genuine Gift To Dallydyl. Strong bitch with good depth and width to chest. Good angles to quarters and one of the best width of thighs. Correct tracking action with good forward reach and drive from behind,

Mathilda qualifies for Crufts gaining 2nd Junior bitch at Border Union
 
Critique as follows ;
 
1. Pickup's Roadcoach Ribbons and Roses. Really sparkling b/w bitch with outstanding spotting. Good bone, really tight feet. Well balanced overall, level topline, good curve of stifle and moved with drive. Should have a bright future.
2. Saunders' Caprilli's Genuine Gift to Dallydyl. B/w bitch with a very appealing head and expression, enhanced by a really dark eye and spotty face. Well constructed body and good hindquarter muscle development. Lost out to the winner in maturity.
3. Christie's Sophtspot Snap Crackle N Pop.
