I started with Rough Collies way back in 1975. Had my first one as a pet. She was called Loranka Tara King and she was from the famous Champion Royal Ace of Rokeby ( as were a lot of the collies in those days). I started showing Tara and enjoyed it very much and won quite a bit and bred some beautiful puppies. In those days I used to use the Bririch stud, the very famous Bririch Gold Edition owned by the lovely late Vera Hickson. I then started using the Brilyn stud, dating back to Brilyn Rum N'Black. I kept a puppy from him, which was Tara King and from Tara King came Tessa (Razza Bella of Highfields of Bellarazza) and Molly Bellarazza Luscious Dear 'N Devoted. Both of these bitches are still with me. My latest addition is Sophie Brilyn Gold Rosebud. I look forward to starting again with Sophie and look forward to the future with her. I have not been out in the Show world for a long time with my dogs as my ponies and pedigree pigs took over my life. I am now back to just concentrating on my Collies. More to follow.
