"Splash" is out of my own beautiful boy "Breaker" who obtained his Grand Champion Title at Sunbury Canine Club Melbourne 2006 and the lovely red girl Jessomine Devlinaredress "Devil" this young lady combines a lovely mix of pedigrees.
Lovely type, beautiful balance, gorgeous front, and a head to die for, "Splash" has turned some heads since her debut 12 months ago.
Splash was awarded BEST PUPPY IN SHOW at the BCC Qld Championship show under breed specialist judge Janice Baldwin of "Yarrancoly" Border Collies Critique "Lovely breed type and size this bitch stood out in her class. Balanced head, good pigment and expression,strong neck of good length, topline level. Fore and hindquarter angulation good also chest. Forelegs straight and sound feet. Well presented correct coat. All over a balanced bitch who moved out freely and covered the
ground well"
She was also awarded Opposite Sex Puppy of Breed at Brisbane royal from a large entry of puppy and minor bitches. The same result as her father 4 years earlier.

Splash produced her 1st and only litter for Showioz in July 2009 to the gorgeous Etherial Up In Lights "Oliver". We have retained a gorgeous girl Showioz Patience Is A Virtue and will run Tyme on in the future.
Splash has retired from the show ring as she never really enjoyed it and is pursuing more exciting adventures such as herding, agility, obedience and anything else that takes her fancy! We look forward to hearing of her exploits in the future!
