We are a small kennel and our dogs are firstly part of the family and secondly reward us by their performance in the show ring. We have been in Rough Collies for over 20 years, longer if one counts those who were solely pets before the "show bug" got hold of us.

About 10 years ago we saw a tri bitch, Steelhurst Magic Moments from the Steelhurst kennels and decided those were the lines we wanted to follow - a decision which we have never regretted - both from a beauty, conformation, and a temperament perspective.
