We are very proud of our Mac who has a lovely temperament and is a joy to live with. Mac is tested clear for TNS and is clear by parentage for CEA and CL. He also has a hip score of 6:3 totalling 9 which is well below breed average making him an ideal stud dog for the future of the breed if put to bitches of similar calibre.
Mac was the firstborn of Cara's second litter and the only black and white puppy. Although the two blues were gorgeous, he was the eye catcher from the beginning. Already very nicely constructed and with very good movement for one so young, he had his first show outing at the age of 7 months to the Sheffield DKA Open Show. The judge Irene Kiff awarded him the Puppy Class and then, after the Challenge, gave him Best Puppy in Breed. We gave him time to mature.
In 2008 he delighted us by taking Best in Show at Norfolk and Norwich Premier Open Show out of 1,046 dogs entered. At SKC in August 2008 he won his first Limit Class and gained his Stud Book Number.
Meg Purnell-Carpenter awarded him the Dog Challenge Certificate at Border Union 2009. His second came from Eric Broadhurst at City of Birmingham and his third from Judith Gregory at Working and Pastoral Breeds Association of Scotland making Mac a Show Champion. Along the way Mac also gained enough points at Open Shows for the title ShCM. We are very grateful to all of these judges for these awards.
