LochWind, by 2006 proudly home of our ROM sire & TWELVE Champions!
In July 2006 I elected to retire from showing & breeding collies. The politics, antics & unpleasantness involved at shows made that choice far too easy.
As my foundation I imported only proven champions & champion producing stock, from the very best American kennels. At LochWind I believed in selectively breeding for enduring quality, not just for the next show ring trend. I never felt the need to play the numbers game, breeding only five litters in six years, a number many claiming to be small breeders produce every year. I offered genuine, collies with wonderful movement & temperament. These collies won purely on their merits, according to the standard, no matter who was on the end of the lead ! Their results spoke for themselves. Consider their consistent achievements at the 3 biggest shows in WA. The Western Classic, Winter Festival & Perth Royal Show.
Did they have anything left to prove ? I really don't think so !
2011- Our imports' names now stand out in the pedigrees of many top winning collies shown by ... Burdekin, Kazjs, Swinbrad, Vedamea, Arranbrae, Bewitching, Highclere, Kilcoy & Collieston etc.
Their successes, in part, due to the generosity of Highcroft & Tartanside Kennels in America, for allowing their bloodlines to come to Australia.
Breeding stock certified for eyes, hips & thyroid.
Genuinely DNA tested for genetic faults @ Health Gene, Canada.
