The Pedigree

3 Generations of Structure, Form and Function
       We are proud to present this product of Artisan (30 yr line including some Sallen from Scotland) and Chetcote (Kilfinian-Wellknowe Eng. lines) breeding with the goal to preserve the working temperment and structure of the Bearded Collie. The Dam, Flo (Artisan Frost Flower) has proved herself to be versatile across many performance sports earning the AKC Versatility Companion Title at 4 years of age (Scent Tracking, Obedience, Agility) as well as AKC and AHBA Herding titles on sheep and ducks. The Sire, Thomas (Checote The Stargazer) has achieved his Canadian Championship at 6 months.

      All puppies are sold with a written contract. Pets will have AKC Limited Registration and a clause requiring spaying/neutering. Show-potential puppies are kept in co-ownership with the breeders until all requirements of the contract are met. 
     Our contract requires either (1)  the return to us of any dog we have bred if the owners are unable to keep the dog, or (2) a written approval of any proposed new home with consideration of the circumstances. We are always available to assist the buyer with any questions or problems. All breeding stock is OFA certified free of hip dysplasia and checked for eye disease.

   We will be happy to provide a 6 generation pedigree on request.
