So I attended my first Collie National. There were over 1,300 dogs entered at the CCofA in North Carolina this year. I have to say it was a bit overwhelming and quite exhausting…. but it was lots of fun!! The depth of quality was refreshing and I saw quite a few dogs that I really liked. Cole and Tirzah were shown in the Best of Variety class by Diana Hiiesalu my co-breeder. They both showed great but since they are not even 2 years old yet they did not have the coat a more mature dog would carry. The venue was one of the best I have ever been to. It took me a while to get used to the fact that they have sweet tea and that you don’t have to add anything to it. It only took me about 4 times to get with the whole tea program! It was fun to spend the time with Diana and talk about collies, love, soulmates, life, and how grateful we are to have cellphones.
