In 1976 we purchased our first Fox Terrier from the Reverend Keith Braithwaite. Mansevale Metal Maid was her name and she was purchased purely as a pet for the family and a hunting dog. She excelled at both.
We decided to breed a litter from "Vale" and she was mated to Steve Creeks champion Imina Brandy Cruster. When the litter arrived we kept a tan and white bitch who went on to become Champion Graebrook Minuette the first of many show champions that Graebrook would breed.
We now have approximately twenty Smooth Fox Terriers and eight Hungarian Vizsla's. Breeding for type, temperament and soundness we are very proud of the success our dogs have had in the show ring but more importantly as much loved family pets, just like our first Smooth, "Vale".
