Hello and welcome to the Fasusq home on the web.
My name is Amanda Dunne. I live in sunny QLD in a town called "Westbrook" which is about 10 minutes
from Toowoomba (less than 2 hours away from Brisbane). Toowoomba is well known for its "Carnival of Flowers" events in September.
****************************************************
Fasusq- pronounced "Fah-Soo-Sk"
came from the combination of 3 of our dogs names...
Fa - FAyme - my favourite childhood English Springer Spaniel
Su - SUtek - my first official Cavalier in my name (in 2006)
Sq - SQuirrel - my first Handlers dog; an English Setter
****************************************************
Although the name "Fasusq" was only established in 2007, I have been involved
with dogs my whole life. As my mother bred & showed English Setters & English Springer Spaniels.
In preperation for when I would want my own dog to show (10 years of age in QLD to start showing) my
mother thought it would be better to get a smaller dog that would be easier for me to show (this was in 1997).
Co-incidentally a client of hers from work had a litter of puppies and wanted to know her opinion
of them. The puppies were GORGEOUS!! A week or 2 later we had a Cavalier puppy whom we named Meg (Springset
Spice Girl) and we have been hooked ever since.
****************************************************
My main breed and 1st love is the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. But I do have other breed interests... I have
had in the past a Whippet (for a few weeks), a pedigreed American Cocker Spaniel rescue (who went to live with
a work friend), 2 Pugs (who both won multiple class in groups and even an in show for one of them). Most recently I have
2 Chinese Cresteds added to the show team.
