Padawi's kennel is located in Germany, and is owned by Birgit and Siegrun Dawin. Birgit told us the kennel history.

"Christmas 1983 my mothers dream came true, Dixie a little yorkie bitch moved into our home.Of course she didn`t stay on her own for long , as the whole family fell in love with this little bundle which was full of temperament.

Since 1990 my mother and I started to breed under our affix "of Padawi´s" wich is registered in the VDH / FCI . "of Padawi`s" is a combination of our home town Paderborn and our surname Dawin.
We breed on a small scale, our dogs live with us and have a free run of the whole house and the garden. Our aim is to breed healthy dogs of good nature and quality, with a strong body and sound movement.

We breed with the well known of Millmoor and Ozmillion lines and since 1996 with the NicNak's and Camparis lines too (Canadian and American lines).
At the beginning of the 90`s we began to show our dogs on national & international dogshows. One of our dogs being Ch. Andrew Boy of Padawi`s which we kept with his sister Aileen of Padawi`s from our first litter, sire Ch. Just you of Millmoor, dam C`Marisa vom Landsknecht (our kennel originated with her ).
Ch. Andrew Boy of Padawi`s was a very successfull showdog who won many national titles, for example Jr. Ch., DT. Ch. VDH and 1. DYC, twice he won the title VDH Europasieger and different other Club titles.
Our first international success we had with our Captain Joy of Padawi`s who in 1992 won the FCI Europajugendsieger in Dortmund. In the years to follow we have shown our dogs and have won various of other titles such as, DT. CH. VHD and 1.DYC, VDH Bundes- and Europasieger, VDH Bundes- and Europajugendsieger, 1 DYC Ch. – Jr. Ch., 1.DYC Club-and Clubjugendsieger.

Since the Year 2000 we have shown Ch. Handsome Roy of Padawi`s a son of Ch. Andrew Boy of Padawi`s and NicNak`s Meg Ryan who was very successful and became Worldjunior Dog Winner in Milano 2000. In 2001 Ch. Angelina of Padawi`s, a daughter of Ch. Handsome Roy of Padawi`s won Worldjunior Bitch in Porto, Roy became R. CACIB from the Dogs, even though he was still young.

In the past years we, with our own bred dogs have also been very successful on international shows, winning titles such as Int. Ch.., PL, NL, LUX and A.- Champion and Bundessieger. Also a big credit to us was the winning the group and the Res. BIS on the Winner Amsterdam 2001 with Ch. Handsome Roy of Padawi`s.

Presently we are showing Ch Bodyguard of Padawi´s (Camparis Jackpot x Camparis Solitaire), Jr. Ch. Destiny's Child of Padawi's (Andrew Boy of Padawi's x Gipsy Jubilee of Padawi's) and Ch. Millenium Princess of Padawi`s (Andrew Boy of Padawi's x Camparis Solitaire - owned and handled by Marina Forte).

We thank all our Yorkie friends at home and abroad."
