  CLONARA ALIA AGED NINE MONTHS - Alia was the most ladylike and dignified of wolfhounds, the epitome of wolfhound good manners.
 
 
 
 
   ALIA AGED SIX - 34 + INCHES AT SHOULDER. She spent a lot of time in the orchard and could jump eight feet on her hind legs to reach her favourite pears. Wish i had been able to video her running leaps, she was just as spectacular out galloping. She was a lovely hound in every way, one of my all time favourites for her beauty and gentleness.  
 
 
 
 ALIA'S SON BY XILE MOCHRAS FAVONIUS, ANOTHER TALL AND SUBSTANTIAL HOUND (1987)
 
 
 
  Favonious appears in pedigrees today behind Ch Caredig Sion Cent and Ch Cefni Maggie Ann's offspring, these hounds from daughters from his second and last litter ( to Ch Caredig Zoe)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 FAVONIUS' CHILD FROM A CH MARUMAC CANRITH DAUGHTER, THIS WAS MOCHRAS HERA ( 1CC) - I SHOULD HAVE CAMPAIGNED HER, SHE WAS SOUND IN MIND AND BODY AND SUCH AN EASY AND AMUSING HOUND WITH A HABIT OF WANTING TO HOLD YOUR HAND WHEN SHE TROTTED. SHE DIED OF STOMACH CANCER AT FIVE.
