The Brocco-dale story---

Airedales love their veggies!  It's a good thing that this year's quilt is, "Garden Party" depicting Airedales in the garden.

Emma is the youngest of the Aussie As at Wombat Bend, Oz

She's the veggie queen of the pack, happy to munch anything without a face. 

Her favourite place is nose-first into the broccoli patch, and when all the florets have gone, she'll start on the leaves. If ever I can't find her, I just check the veggie garden first. 

Emma the Brocco-dale!

She's saved her pocket money for making a donation to this year's Quilt cuz her view is that;

 Life is a Garden Party just for her!

Helping Airedales, it's the right thing to do.  Please donate today!
