ENG CH VALIES OF VORDEN AND THE SYDNEY ROYAL 1951
This picture with its caption appeared in a magazine in 1951 in an article on dogs competing at the Sydney Royal that year. The article said Champion of the Keeshonds is Judy (or Eng Ch Valies of Vorden) who is smoky-grey, five years old, and has many championship ribbons from England.
JUDY, big, smoky-grey keeshond, sits on her favourite cushion. Her owner Mrs Bourne, says Judy has taken over her house. She holds three British Challenge Ribbons.
"Judy runs our house." Mrs Bourne said "All the other dogs live in their special kennels, but Judy is my best friend, so she lives with me inside.
