Strider passed his opitcal eye testing with flying colours in Dec 2009

Strider is a 8 year old Border Collie who is my friend and competitor. He is a once in a lifetime showdog. His wins include multi best in show and groups, Best of Breed 2007 and 2008 Sydney Royal and Best Of Breed Canberra Royal 2007. Strider is a gentle loving dog, a wonderful ambassador with the elderly, very young and disabled. He is my constant companion, a loyal and devoted dog, and a show winner. He is an amazing dog and is a tremendous dog when travelling. To Nahrof Border Collies I thank you for my dear friend.

Strider has now retired, I owe him so much. he is NOT happy not going to shows…very jealous. However in my job working with disadvantaged kids and those with mental health issues, I sometimes take this remarkable dog with me on field visits where he is able to bond with these young people in an amazing time frame. Yes he is a one in a million dog, looks, brains and an acceptance and love of all people.

His sons Lincoln and Charlie have his same laid back attitude, love people and will be a force to reckon with in the future!!

Strider has been immortalized by a painting completed by John Silver in England. The painting was based on a magnificent photo taken by Edwina Beck, Border Pix n Art
