Welcome to Telforth Collies....

Like a lot of people we always had dogs at home but Rough Collies were always our favourites.

It wasn't until 1980 that we were able to purchase our first show collie from Frank and Avis Coates and started the

show scene and never looked back.

We started with just the local shows so we could learn as much as possible.

Here are a few of our lovely dogs who were all special.

February 2009 - It is with great sadness we had to say
goodbye to our lovely Telforth Mister Blue Sky at almost 14 yrs.
