Leelu arrived in Australia in August of 2000 and immediately made her mark both at Isilwane Kennels where she seemed to have been part of the pack forever and in the show ring, taking Res Ch & Junior in Show at the RRCI 2000 Champ Show on her first weekend out & was titled within six months of coming to Australia.

Adding to her BIS Hound Club (TAS) in 2001, she had a great 2002 taking BISS at the 6th Aust RR National Show and Res Ch at the RRCQ Champ show - both under SAF judges and also got Best Gaited Bitch from both. To round the year out she got BIG in October in Cessnock (NSW).

2003 was spent concentrating more on having puppies but managed to keep her exceptional specialty results intact by taking Reserve Challenge Bitch and Best Headed Bitch under Mr Rob Surman of Groberspals Kennels (SA).

2004 saw Leelu's sons Isilwane Quidditch (Potter) & Isilwane Gryffindor hit the ring. Potter went Baby Puppy in Show at both the 2004 Rhodesian Ridgeback National and the RRC of SA Championship Show.

Leelu also continued her success taking Best Gaited Bitch for the 3rd & 4th times at the 2004 Rhodesian Ridgeback National (also 3rd in Open Bitch) & the RRC Inc Easter Championship Show.

In 2005 Leelu became a mother again - daughter Isilwane Orlando (Bloom) has a great start to her career with multiple Class in Show & Group wins. Her two sons Potter and Weasley both follow in their mother's pawprints taking out Best Gaited Dog awards at specialties. And just to prove the "old girl" still has it she took Best In Group at Dalwood under Ms N Riggsbee(USA) over 200 hounds.

2006, she gains her Grand Champ title on her 7th Birthday, then backs it up the next day with her 4th Res Ch & 3rd Best Head at a Specialty (Mrs D Redman -SA) & the day after places 3rd in Open Bitch at the Royal Easter Show.

At the 8th Ridgeback National in Qld in June she wins the Veteran Bitch Class, Reserve Challenge Bitch and her THIRD consecutive National Best Gaited Bitch Award.
