MBISS GCH. Wyndlair Cherokee Independence

Kit’s puppy campaign included a couple of notable wins. She took a specialty major reserve at the Collie Club of Southern Wisconsin under judge Lisa Brodsky at 7 months. At the Central Iowa Collie Club, she took Best in Sweeps under breeder Isabel Ososki.

Kit then took a backseat to GCH. Wyndlair Star Spangled while her litter sister became the youngest Collie to finish her Championship and Grand Championship in 2021 and became one of the hottest young specials in the breed winning both BISSs & an All-Breed Best in Show. Kit had a 2023 litter sired by Ch. Fantasy’s Look To The Stars – 2022 CCA Winners Dog producing Wyndlair Cherokee Stars and Stripes.

Kit returned to the ring in 2024, quickly amassing an impressive record under some of the finest breeder/judges:

CC of Southern Wisconsin – WB/BOS (4 points) over a special – Judge Maret Halinen (Napier)

CC of Southern Wisconsin – RWB (4 points) – Judge Jackie Corwin

Central States CC – WB/BOW/BOV/BOB (5 points) over 8 specials – Judge Lynn Butler (Milas)

Central States Collie Club – WB/BOW (4 points) – Judge Deborah Falk (Aurealis)

2024 Collie Club of America – 1st Open Tri-Color Bitch – Judge Marcy Fine (Overland)

Kit produced a beautiful Summer 2024 litter sired by Ch. Aurealis Constellation. That litter produced the specialty-winning Wyndlair Constitution and Wyndlair Revelstoke – 2025 CCA 1st Open White. Kit returned to the ring in Spring 2025 and finished in her first show and took her second BISS later the same day:

CC of Southern Wisconsin – WB/BOW (4 points) – Judge Isabel Osaki

CC of Southern Wisconsin – BOV/BOB – Judge Ed Degner (Canyon)

Kit completed her Grand Championship at 2025 Midwest Specialties. Her final show was the CCA National Specialty where she took:

2025 Collie Club of America – AWARD OF MERIT – Judge Mike Van Tassell (Cobblecreek)

Kit is now retired from the show ring and will be bred to GCHB. Gambit’s Wind In My Sails – 2023 CCA Award of Merit – for a July 2025 litter.
