Working Sheepdogs

All of our working sheepdogs lead an active life and are fed on CSJ dog food.  We are the CSJ Stockist of "Champ" for the Nottinghamshire / Derbyshire borders. Click here to visit the CSJ website

We purchased all of our working sheepdogs from Mike & Christine Hall @ Pentwyncoch Isaf, Amanford, South Wales when we moved to Hardwick in 2005.  Mike & Christine have become very good friends of ours over the past two years, with helpful training & breeding tips for the dogs.  Mike is an excellent sheepdog trainer and has completed regularly on the Welsh National Sheepdog Trialing circuit.  In July 2007 Mike & Christine moved from a rather wet Wales to France to continue his sheepdog training in a different area.  They are currently in the process of converting a part of their beautiful house in two, one bedroom gites and are planning to offer dog friendly holidays and training courses in a fantastic setting.  Click here to visit Mike & Christines website
