2026 – A Landmark Year for Fioralainn
In 2026, we made history as the only Australian Bedlington Terrier kennel to win Best of Breed at Crufts and Best of Breed at the UK National Terrier Show. This is an extraordinary achievement on the world stage and firmly establishes our breeding program among the very best internationally.
We are responsible breeders of Bedlington Terriers based in Sydney, Australia, dedicated to breeding and exhibiting high-quality Bedlington's with a strong focus on temperament, conformation, and long-term structural soundness.
We are exceptionally proud to have bred Vice World Winner 2020, World Winner 2019 & 2018, European Winner 2018 and Junior World Winner 2017 – Fioralainn Russian Melody, who resides with the renowned L’End Show Kennel in St Petersburg, Russia. Our results, both nationally and internationally, reflect our ongoing commitment to excellence in the breed.
We are the only Australian Bedlington Terrier kennel to have achieved World Winner and English and Irish Champion titles with homebred dogs. We are also the only Australian kennel to have bred a Bedlington Terrier that has won Best in Show at a UK Bedlington Terrier specialty and gone on to successfully compete at Crufts. These achievements are the result of years of careful planning, dedication, and a genuine passion for the breed.
We are strong advocates for maintaining genetic diversity. With Australia’s limited Bedlington Terrier gene pool, we are among the few kennels that consistently import dogs and semen to strengthen bloodlines. We encourage all prospective puppy buyers to ask breeders when new blood has been introduced and to review pedigrees carefully to understand any level of line-breeding.
We are registered with Dogs NSW and are always happy to share our knowledge and experience.
If you have any questions about Bedlington Terriers—or “Beddies”—please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

October 2026
It’s hard to believe it’s already October—where has the time gone?
We welcomed two litters this year, and all the puppies, apart from our keeper, have found wonderful homes. Moxie has gone to Poland and Esti to Ireland, and we’re excited to follow their progress. Our keeper is KAI—Fioralainn Touch of Class—a lovely, chubby, happy boy.
We had wonderful results at the Spring Fair, with Scoot taking out Best of Breed on all three days.
I’m currently studying and preparing to sit my final subgroup for Group 7—Non-Sporting. I’m also looking forward to judging Terriers in Poland next month.
As always, I’m happy to help with anything related to Bedlington Terriers, so please feel free to get in touch. There’s no such thing as a silly question.
Question for your Australian breeder: how long have you been breeding Bedlington terriers and when last did you import new bloodlines?
