Panya has managed to win her first (and ours) Challenge Certificate at the National Working & Pastoral Breeds Society 2007, many thanks to judge Tracy Wilkinson (Altricia) for thinking so highly of this extrovert little lady. Panya then went on to win BOB and then made the split in the Pastoral Group from twenty nine breeds down to the last eight under judge Albert Wight.

 

Panya is taking a while to grow her new coat but under Derek Smith at West of England Kennel Club 2008  managed to attain a Reserve Challenge Certificate, a wonderful surprise. Not sure how 2008 will go for Panya but the search for further Challenge Certificates continues.

 

Panya has managed to attain her Show Certificate of Merit from the General Open Shows and we are proud for her to have Sh.CM after her name.

 

Panya will need to overcome her excitement and over exuberance if she is to gain her title, watch this space and of course watch her in the ring for the perfect movement.

 

Panya has had a quiet year in 2008 but does continue to impress and has managed to win Best Bitch at Southern Counties Championship show, judge Marilyn Clarke and at City of Birmingham Championship Show, judge Barrie Croft, she will continue to work hard as she will not want her brother to get the better of her.

Kimba won his 3rd Challenge Certificate on the 10th August 2008 at Bournemouth Championship show under John Geddes (Ingledene) this now giving him his title. His other Challenge Certificates came last year at Richmond Championship show under Jo Bispham and at Darlington Championship show under Rod Slater. Also in 2008 Kimba managed two Reserve Challenge Certificates under Robin Serle at Blackpool  Championship show and Mac Shutt at East Anglian Collie Association.

 

We would like to thank all judges who thought highly of Kimba on his journey to his title, we will continue with his show career as he is still a young man at 3 years old.

 

We would also like to thank fellow exhibitors for all their kindness and encouragement over the past 12 months, the list is too long to name individuals but you know who you are.

 

At the Welsh Kennel Championship Show Kimba was awarded a Reserve Challenge Certificate under Albert Turner.

 

We would also like to thank Hugh Jones (Seafire) for awarding Kimba his 4th Challenge Certificate at Richmond Championship Show on the 6th September 2008, what a fantastic year, the dream continues.

We are so proud of Honey, we kept this little girl from a mating that we were a little uncertain about, but it worked, well we think so.

 

Honey managed her Junior Warrant by 11 months and was rested for a few months to allow a new coat to grow and to start a career in the agility ring, which she has an aptitude for and certainly enjoys every minute.

 

It was a wonderful surprise for Honey to gain her first Challenge Certificate under John Geddes (Ingledene) , a massive shock for us and I’m sure for all those ringside. Honey does have everything it takes to be a Champion, both a show champion and an agility champion, so watch this space.

 

A massive thank you once again to John Geddes, a day to be remembered forever.

 

Honey is continuing to impress and at the Welsh Kennel Championship show was awarded the Reserve  Challenge Certificate under Albert Turner
