Two very distinct lines of Lassina bitches. Both coming down from the first Lassina bitch which was Lassina Divi’s Darling. This kennel had quite a lot of success for a time but stopped breeding at the turn of the 21st century.

I find it difficult to come to terms with the fact that the Lassina kennel of Brian and Joan House did not go far into this century. I also find it strange that these bitch lines should have three sires that are repeated and that they have another sire in between each of them. It is rare in these bitch lines to find a sire that has been used more than once in the line, yet here we have three in just the fifteen and sixteen generations that I can find. The dogs in question are Ch Sandiacre Sonny Jim of Lassina, Sandiacre Softly Softly and Ch Legend of Ladypark.
I cannot find the breeding of Ladypark Meadowsweet of Lewdown. I have to assume that the Ladypark kennel bought in this bitch and added the Ladypark prefix onto the name.
The Lassina prefix was originally owned by the then Joan Gammage. She married Brian House and they shared this prefix until they parted.
In this line is a bitch called Samantha of Sandiacre. Not only was she the dam of Lynway Sunsweet that was at the head of a large family she was also the dam of Lynway Sugar Sugar the dam of a dog by the name of Lynway Some Loving. He was a popular stud dog including being the sire Ch Danvis Jefsfire Johnny Walker who goes down in history as the sire of Ch Danvis Ladyvale Blue Mist and his litter brother Ch Ladyvale Blue Macade. Both won Best of Breed at Crufts.
Then we come to a very prolific bitch Lassina Divis Darling. An eight generation reverse pedigree of her went on and on. She was the foundation bitch for the Lassina kennel and all of that kennels stock were based on her. She was the granddam of Ch Lassina love Me Tender and here I have a big interest because I awarded her the bitch Challenge certificate at my very first Ch show judging at the London Collie Clubs Ch show in 1983. She on the day looked wonderful and deserved her award which I believe made her a Champion. The entry at this show was huge with the minor bitch puppy class being the largest breed class ever for the breed in the UK.
Two generation later and we find another Champion. This time a dog and he became Ch Allsala Canny Bairn at Corydon.
The Lassina kennel did have a lot of fun and success for a few years. Our Corydon kennel also had much success with their breeding especially when it is known that Corydon Gold Demelza, one of those in the A bitch line was by Canny Bairn.
