Sire: Sorcerers Apprentice At Shepherdspal x Dam: Belgarath Dark Angel at Bordertrix

Tessie was the second born in Sunnie's second litter and came into the world (backwards) screaming like a banshee! Her temperament is so like Sunnie's it is great to see her living on in her puppies. Tessie lives with her family and 5 cats not too far from us so we see her regularly, sometimes for walks, sometimes for training and sometimes for short breaks with us. She is a very easy going girl and just slots in like she never left.

Tessie is a very affectionate little Lady and loves her cuddles. She has been shown at Champ Show level and won a 4th Place in Minor Puppy Bitch in East Anglian Border Collie Club Show in 2009. She qualified for Crufts after getting a 2nd Place in Yearling Bitch at Boston Champ Show in January 2010. She is also trained for agility and very easily turns her paw at most things.

We are looking forward to Tessie becoming a Mum, I think it will suit her and she'll be very natural with her puppies, just like Sunnie was.
