Wedgewood's Dark Lord

1st in Junior Dog at Cruft's show 2016, judged by J. Luscott
Impressive for bone substance and outline, this young lad has a good balance in head, neck and top line with a developing body, he moves with good flow on side action, taking all be for him to win the class.

Tex is our youngest family member. I got him on 20th March 2015 from the United States. He is a sweet cuddly boy. He's the one who always wakes me up because he wants to cuddle but he also loves running. He loves running for a ball, playing with other dogs or just running around without any reason. We participate at shows. He was a very successful puppy always ending up first in baby and puppy classes, he also became BISS baby and BIS puppy. He's got the first BOB in his early 10 months at a Club show, qualified and won class at Crufts in 2016 and he is dual Interchampion (C.I.B. and C.I.E. ), Grand Champion, Multiple Champion and Multiple Junior Champion, r. BIS Junior and BIS at Area Dog Show at the moment. All his results are below. He already passed herding exams - herding instinct test and herding working test, agility exams, endurance test and thanks to my friend Colleen DeWitt we were able to pass american trick exams from the novice to the performer level.

He is out of DC GCH HC Wedgewood's Sparkling Gem HSAds HSBd HIAds HXAds and GCH Sportingfield's Trojan Troy. Wedgewood's Sparkling Gem, Ice, is an amazing female. Very sucessful in the show ring with multiple group placements, AKC Grand Champion and also a great working dog. She is a Herding Champion. Because of the two AKC championship, she could use the Dual Champion title. Her mother is a Dual Champion too - AKC Champion, Herding Champion Sogn Valleys Forget-Me-Not. Ice is a dilute carrier and she is a dam to BISS GCH Wedgewood's Cast In Stone At Avatar Bayshore, Multi BIS Winner AKC CKU CH Riveredge Eye Of The Storm, multiple group placing at CH Riveredge Strikes Back, MultiCh. Riveredge Written In Stone and many more amazing border collies. Ice is a small miracle.
AKC Grand Champion Sportingfield's Trojan Troy is a beautiful black and white male. He carries the brown color. I fell in love with his beautiful brown daughters - Sportingfield's Sweet And Saucy and Sporting Fields Eternal Flame. His progenies are also Canadian champions.

I would like to thank Deb for giving me the opportunity to have my amazing Tex at home. Thank you so much, Deb! I am so glad Tex is with me.
