Hello, my name is Angie Bartlett. I have been showing dogs since the year 2000. I have handled breeds from the following groups: Working, Hound, Sporting, Herding and Toy.

I contacted Sue LeMieux of Gaia Greyhounds in 2003 as I was looking for a Greyhound to show in Juniors.

She had Lily (Ch. Eden's Calla Lily of Gaia), one of the smartest Greyhounds she'd have ever known and was definitely her father's daughter (Ch. Sundridge So Be It JC). She was always getting into trouble, but we really enjoyed her antics and the challenge of trying to stay one step ahead of her. Sue decided Lily needed to be in a home where she could receive more individual attention.

I specialed Lily for a short while and won a Group 3rd and multiple cuts in groups and multiple breed wins, not to mention winning an Award of Merit at the Eukanuba Tournament of Champions in 2005.

Sue and I decided to breed Lily in Decemeber 2003. The sire we bred her to was, AM/CAN. CH. My Christmas Camelot "Royal". On February 26th, 2004, 9 lovely puppies were born naturally. The puppies consisted of 8 girls, 1 red brindle & white and the rest black & white - 1 boy, red brindle & white. Two of these puppies, CH. Gaia's Fairlane Mimosa Molly and CH. Fairlanes Lorricbrook Lola finished their championships at 1 year of age and had Group Placements by the time they were 15 months old.

In 2005, Molly was #13 All-Breed and Lola was #15 All-Breed. Molly was #17th Breed and Lola was #9th Breed. In 2006, Lola was #3rd All-Breed and #6th Breed.

Sadly, Lily died on February 12th 2006, of complications from a collision with one of her daughters. She is greatly missed by Sue, I and others.

Sue has been my best friend and mentor since the day Lily came to live with me. She and I co-breed and co-own dogs together as I will continue the Gaia line for many, many years to come.

Sue passed away on November 4th 2009. She will be dearly missed.
