Orthanc Kiss The Apex (AI) N.SPRD

Kimi is the puppy that was not supposed to stay, but her sweet and bold nature captured my heart and her incredible brain and cleverness sealed my fate. She is from Orthanc's first litter, which had been in the planning since 2019. She is a Rough in a household of Smooths, but she is probably the sassiest and bravest of them all. She thrives on interaction activities that keep her mind busy and her curious nature satisfied. She is has been very lightly shown to date, but is doing nicely in the show ring, picking up a few Best of Breeds and Runner Up to Best Exhibit in Show at the Collie Club of Victoria Open Show in 2025 and Intermediate In Group at the 2026 Lyndhurst Canine Country Club AM Show under Mr Hidemi Takahashi of Japan. Light herding training has commenced with Kimi and things look promising for her future in this sport. She gained her Novice Sprint Dog™ title in May. I'm now focusing on her preparation for the Collie Nationals in July, where she will compete in dogs sports as well as conformation.
