Where We Play
TEAM Seantiago … So who are we anyway?
Team Owners: Gail & Frank Dame
Home Stadium: Crofton, B.C. (on beautiful Vancouver Island)
OK, so it all dates back to a family reunion umpteen years ago. One of those thrice-removed kind of cousins came up from the U.S. with two of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen. She called them blue Havanese (to which I responded Blue-Have-A-WHAT?) and I instantly decided I had to have a have-a-nese. Now, I may have been a bit over-interested… maybe I asked too many questions… whatever the reason, our American cuz got nervous and hid her beauties in her motor home for the rest of the weekend, leaving me without a contact name or number.
Flip forward a few years to the home of my good friend Bev Dorma when she brought home …yup, you guessed it, a heart-stealing Havanese puppy.! I was hooked! Over time she began to mentor me, and with her support we entered the toy dog world.
After the tragic death of our 18year old son Sean, Bev encouraged us to take on a breeder’s role. A family conference decided on the name Sean
tiago, and what began as a therapeutic adventure evolved into a total new life-style! What can I say? Our family has gone to the dogs!
I almost forgot! There was another family reunion last summer… and we took our beautiful Havanese kids with us.. Did we hide them in a motor home? No way! They ran, played, snuggled and enjoyed themselves almost as much as everyone enjoyed them. But why not? They are part of the family…
