We would like to announce that Vegas is now INTERNATIONAL, CANADIAN, BISS CHAMPION TAMARON’S STATE OF CONFUSION. On October 3,4 and 5th, 1997 Vegas and I flew out to Cloverdale, BC for the first Alle Rasse Gruppe International All Breed Canine Association of America Show to be held in Western Canada. In order to be awarded an International Championship, the dog must achieve three “V” ratings. They can be V-1, 2, 3 or 4 with V-1 being better than V-4 but all being “Excellent”. Vegas was given three V-1 ratings under three different judges which qualify him for his title. He was also awarded a Group 3rd one day.
The next week-end Vegas flew out to New Brunswick to the CKC National Specialty where, under the expert guidance of Tom and Nioma Coen, he WON THE CCC NATIONAL. This year’s judge was Pam Durazzano of the famous Starr Collies. Special thanks to everyone across Canada, the US, and New Zealand for their kind words of congratulations. What a thrill it was to win the National! It is every breeder’s dream and ultimate goal to accomplish that.
Vegas is a tri-factored sable merle that stands 25 inches at the shoulder. He is a beautiful reddish/gold color and has a full white collar. He has white extending up his front legs into his chest. He has a full round muzzle and a beautifully chiseled foreface that correctly forms a receptacle for the eyes. He has 2 dark brown eyes that are almond shaped and set obliquely in his skull. Vegas has a wonderful shoulder layback with equal angulation in the rear to give him the correct floating gait, single tracking front and rear. He has the softest sweetest expression I have ever seen in a collie?it is truly “angelic” but in no way is it feminine. He also has lots of bone and very small, tight feet.
Vegas finished his championship undefeated his first week-end out at 7 months with a Specialty WD and BOS over 6 male Specials for 4 points. He was WD the first day and BW the last to finish his CH. The next time he was shown he was 9 months old, out as a Special for the first time. He won the breed and went on to a GROUP 1st and PUPPY GROUP. By the time he was 10 months old he had captured 2 Group 1st’s, 3 Group 2nd’s, 4 Group 4th’s and 7 Puppy Groups.
