Nessie Love
I fell in love with the English Toy Terrier when
I saw them at Crufts several years ago,then in
2017 I became the proud owner of 13 week old
Lizzie (Witchstone Halo) as a pet.
I was encouraged to enter the world of dog
showing, quite a daunting thought for someone
with no prior knowledge or experience.

In autumn 2017 we went to our first show where
Lizzie took a second in her class and that’s
where our journey started. I was given lots of
help and guidance along the way by seasoned
exhibitors for which I’m truly grateful for and
have now become part of the caring ETT family.
Witchstone Halo has achieved numerous
placing with several Best of Breed at open
shows and more recently Reserve Best Bitch
(Boston), RCC (Manchester) and Group 4
(Coalville Open show).
In 2018 I got my 2nd ETT, Margot (Lasagesse
Morning Glory). A petite little girl who had
minor wins in the ring but comes into her own
in obedience and at 15 months old she had
achieved her Gold in Good Citizen Awards.
It is believed she is the only ETT recorded to
achieve this.
In 2019 I was asked by Graham and Patricia
Newton if I would like to join them and carry
on the TETTOY affix. To say I was delighted
and honoured to be offered this is an
understatement.
