EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs Thelma Gray, née Thelma Evans, was a renowned dog breeder whose love for animals left an indelible mark on the history of canine breeding in the 1930s. In this photograph, taken in 1939, Thelma is seen with four of her beautiful white Alsatians, a favorite breed of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Thelma's dedication to the Rozavel Welsh Pembrokeshire Corgis, a lesser-known branch of the Pembroke Welsh Corgi breed, was unwavering. Her dogs were not only prized for their striking appearance but also for their exceptional temperament and health. Thelma's passion for animals began at a young age, and she honed her skills under the tutelage of experienced breeders. Her commitment to the breed led her to establish her own kennel, Rozavel, where she bred and raised her beloved Corgis. Thelma's dogs were not only cherished companions but also successful show dogs, earning accolades at various competitions. The 1930s was an era when dog breeding was a burgeoning industry, and Thelma Gray was a trailblazer in her field. Her dedication to the Rozavel Welsh Pembrokeshire Corgis helped to establish their reputation as a distinct and desirable breed. This photograph captures a moment in time, showcasing Thelma's devotion to her animals and her significant contribution to the world of dog breeding.
