tamaron collies

Until you have seen a “stallion of a dog” it’s really hard to picture what one would look like. When you have seen Edge, you have truly seen a “stallion of a dog”. At 8 months of age, Edge stood 25 inches at the shoulder, had bone and substance that you usually only see on mature dogs. You think he is much older until you see him in the ring! Then the puppy comes out in him and he makes everyone laugh. He did manage to win Best of Breed his very first time in the ring!

When Mary and Paul Wells of Blossom Hill Collies in California decided to breed Edge’s mom April to Hal, I held my breath, hoping for a smooth male that could come to Canada. There was only one male in the litter and he was a sable merle. Bonus for me as Paul and Mary already had a sable merle in Hal and surely (I was hoping) they wouldn’t want to keep another one. Then, when their eyes opened and it was discovered Edge had a partial blue eye on his show side, I knew he was mine!! You can’t show sable merles with blue eyes in the States but you can in Canada!! I started to make plans to bring Edge to Canada!!
