Vale Mlia (aka Aust Ch Kambi Ndoto Mlia)

It was a sad day yesterday and the end of an era, as Mlia – my first basenji and the girl that started me on the path of showing and breeding – passed away from the infirmities of old age.

She would have been 16 years old in June.

My sincere thanks go to Peter Schroder for loving Mlia so much and giving her a wonderful loving home for the last 12 years.

Mlia’s line continues on through her grand-daughter Ishar (MBIS Aust Ch Mzalia Hidden Valley) and her great-grand-daughters Kye-ya (Aust Ch Katimbari Wild of Heart) and Alla (Aust Ch Katimbari Desert Rose).

Mlia’s first great-grandchildren were born in Victoria in 2009.
