Border Collie Puppies
We are delighted to announce a gorgeous litter from Abby (Mastamariner Blackthorn) to Barney (Mastamariner Ice Man), an outstanding young man and a true Mastamariner owned by Mrs Lucy Root. Abby Abby is the daughter of our beloved elder statesman and the icon of Mastmariner Border Collies, Hercules (Mastamariner First Officer) and our lovely, gentle Esther (Mastamariner Corvette) and a grand daughter of Cider (Caristan Cider of Mastamariner). We expect this litter to produce puppies of equally kind and gentle character to that of their parents, grandparents and Great grandparents. Abby is a beautiful and classic border collie, clever but very willing and full of fun, like her mother Esther (Mastamariner Corvette) Abby never gets bored of being the centre of attention and revels in her role as hostess to the residental guest at our Hampshire based dog training organisation, Training 4 Dogs taking new arrivals and return guest under her wing and quickly putting them at ease.
Barney We are endebted to Mrs Lucy Root who generously allowed us to "borrow" Barney when Abby's intended stud was indisposed. Barney proved to be a not just a kind and charming companion, a delightful house guest, a sociable and accomodating gentleman but also a first class stud dog and excellent sire. Barney epitomises the qualities that we look for in our breeding programme, temperament, temperament and temperament as well as sociablity, kindness, health, outstanding character and of course wonderful classic good looks. We are very proud to have bred dogs such as Barney and hope to see more of this gorgeous young gentleman in the future. |

experience of dog ownership and who understand the time and commitment
needed to fulfill the expectations and needs of a young dog. |
