Ch. Bolero’s Tough Luck

We first saw Griffon in the puppy class at the 2007 Collie Club of Southern Wisconsin specialty show where he went up from the classes. A few weeks later Matt put him Best in Sweepstakes at the Illiana Collie Fanciers show. His potential was very apparent. He had breed type, detail, and class not often seen in the Midwest Smooth ring. After some conversation, we secured him as our only smooth for the 2007 CCA. Griffon easily won his class and etched his name in breed history taking 2007 CCA Reserve Winners Dog under Judge Sue Fabeck. We teamed up again at the 2008 National, earning a 2008 CCA Award of Merit under Judge Thomas Coen.
