This beautiful girl hails all the way from Cheryl Poliak, Nonesuch Bearded Collies, in Pickett, Wisconsin. She is a laid-back and easy going girl. Nothing bothers her! Windy finished her Canadian championship easily, winning multiple Best of Breeds, a Group placement and finishing like a star at the the BCCC Booster by going Winners Bitch and Best of Winners. She has both her majors and we're hoping to finish her Stateside this year!
While Windy does incredibly well in the show ring, her true colours come through in the performance ring. She has a great work ethic and a willingness to please. She is currently working on obtaining her Utility Dog/OTCh. title in Obedience and her Rally Advanced Excellent title in Rally. Her agility career has started off with a bang in 2011! She is currently working on her Intermediate level agility titles!
