Hello, my name is June Clarke and I have been involved with the breed since I first met them on a visit to one of the founders of the breed, Eddy Harrison, in the early 1990’s.
My first dog of this breed came from Eddy and she was called Tawney, you will find a page about her as you go on through the site.
I currently have 2 sisters bred by Lyn Barraclough of the Sulin Kennels who has been involved in breeding these dogs for the last 10 years. Her founder dogs were originally bred by Eddy and are the reason I chose Cariad and Maelona from Lyn’s lines.
They each have their own pages with pictures and information about them and their very different personalities.
Collectively they are known as The Norties, and their exploits are many and varied and they are already becoming somewhat of a legend
Doneghogawa is Iroquoi and means ‘The One Who Guards The Gate At Sunset’ and is, I feel very apt, as both Tawney, and now my 2 girls lie across the back door or back gate at night.
My dogs are raw fed and eat a wide range of meat mixed with pureed vegetables and tinned tomatoes mixed in with it {dogs cannot digest cellulose so it must be pureed otherwisw they will not benefit from it}, dried seaweed {from my vets} and vitamins. They also have tinned fish such as salmon, tuna, sardines, pilchards and mackerel in tomato sauce. Also whole fish and game such as rabit is very popular. Tomatoes are anti-carcinogenic and although part of the deadly nightshate family they can be fed in a cooked, tinned form.
All my meat is supplied by J G Meats in Farnworth Lancashire who make their own pet mice to order from 100% chicken as well as supplying various other items to me. Just a name check there for you - never say I do nowt for you!
