Hello, I'm Scott H.
Annette and her husband Bruce began breeding & showing purebred West Highland White Terriers in around 1968. At that time they were living on the family's 40,000 acre sheep and cattle property ‘Garlands Station’ at Bourke in Far Western New South Wales. Annette’s first show dog was a West Highland White Terrier call Cadwit Cassanova aka ‘Snoopy’. Snoopy attained Australian Champion status, and was successfully shown in NSW and Victoria. Anne and Bruce could be regularly seen travelling 'down the line' to regional shows, and to Royal Shows in Sydney and Melbourne. Annette was successful because she had an exceptional eye for detail. Annette was a perfectionist and knew how to present dogs for the show ring. Anne knew what she was after in a dog, and she knew how to produce a dog to win. For almost 60 years, Annette had owned and bred dogs. Some breeds Annette owned included: West Highland White Terriers, Beagles, Dachshunds, Pugs, Pekinese, Fox Terriers, German Shepherds, Kelpies, Blue Heelers, Chihuahuas, Bichon Frisé, and Poodles. Today, Par Annette Poodles focuses Miniature Poodles, Standard Poodle puppies, & Miniature Cavoodles. Sadly, Annette succumbed to Leukaemia on 5 July 2019. Bruce stoutly insists on continuing Annette’s legacy in breeding fine quality puppies. Par Annette Poodles literally translates to mean “Poodles By Annette” & Bruce. Bruce's son Scott cares fulltime for Bruce and travels between homes at Avoca Beach and the beautiful farm "Clement Park" Alectown. With the help of Scott and Helen, as well as grandaughter Courtney and great grandson Harvey, the family helps Bruce continue Anne's legacy. You are welcome to visit puppies in Dubbo or Avoca Beach. Par Annette strives to produce the best possible puppies for family pets and companion dogs. We are very proud of our breeding program and are members of the Master Dog Breeders Association (#42328) Responsible Pet Breeders Association & NSW Pet Registry Breeder (#B001082526)
