Kyley
Am & Can Ch Windfiddler Simply Smashing HIC ROM


A true foundation bitch in the most glorious sense; Kyley is behind most of the Beardies at Ragtyme today. She started us on our way by being our first winning showdog garnering multiple Best Of Breed wins and even a Group First on her way to her American championship. She continued to make a name for herself when she went all the way to Best Of Winners & then Best Of Opposite Sex from the classes at the 1992 BCCC National Specialty.

Kyley (much to her dismay!) spent most of her show career in her brother Bubby's larger, more famous shadow. When she did make an appearance, she usually walked away with some top ribbons. Her final appearance at shows was in 1997 where she won Best Of Breed from the Veteran Class defeating a large supported entry and later went on to a Group Four.

Kyley had an engaging, sweet personality and was a fabulous showdog who always gave her all - with the occasional "woof" thrown in for good measure. Smart, beautiful, sensitive - Kyley I see you generations later in your offspring. Thank you for being You. We miss you.

Kyley also made valuable contributions to outside breeding programs through her sons Rex (Ch Dunhill Simply Something ROM) and Colton (Ch Ragtyme Doubly Smashing) and daughters Taylor (Ch Ragtyme Simply Stunning HT) and Kassidy (Ch Ragtyme Absolutely Smashing HT ROM). She produced 8 Champions in 3 litters; including a multiple group placing, National Specialty AOM winner (Kassidy).
