Merrique, picked us as her home, and a bigger compliment we could not have dreamt of. She was a bit of an odd ball between Lestat and Pandora but in a few days the three became a loving family. She would follow the two older ones and do everything they did, needless to say, sometimes she was naughty without even realizing it. Merrique is one of the most gentle skyes I have ever met.
Her show career had some very prestigious wins but as she grew she had a tougher road. Maybe it is because judges were not used to seeing such soundness in structure, In the end however, Merrique's nature always shines through.

On the last weekend of October 2008, Merrique made her debut in the USA at the Middleburg KC show. She returned to the ring after four years of retirement, at the age of 8. 
Saturday she was reserve winners. On Sunday she went on to take a 3 point major, best of winners and best of opposite sex.
Best of breed was the USA's top skye for the year. Finnsky Gladiator, bred by Finnsky Kennels in Finland, and owned by Michael Pesare.
It was a great start and we hope Merrique continues in the footsteps of her sisters who have left their mark and very tough legacies to follow in the USA.
