THE BEGINNING
![]() |
Wimberway's Borders a Beadle(Bea)
(1990-2006)was our first Border, she
was the dam and and Grand dam of champions. Bea in her short 16 years,
with her zest for life, her love of a party (with it's abundant redirected
morsels), and most of all her love of everyone, amassed a world wide fan
club .
She may not have been a champion in the
show ring but her powers of endearment were such that she was a true
champion of the breed winning over many a convert to the breed.
Sad to say Bea died on her
16th birthday, one of the most difficult times we have had to deal with in
all our years with dogs.
There is not enough space on this page or any other to say how we feel about this special little dog. All we can say is that those who knew her, loved her!

| Can Ch. Plushcourt Brainwave( LUCY) (1991-2004) was imported from England, having a brief show career, produced three puppies from two litters, before being placed in a loving home where she was an only child and quite happy. |
Can Ch. Plushcourt Fearless(Dodger) (1991-2003)was imported from England shortly after Lucy, a wonderful little man who's whole purpose in life was to patrol the perimeter of the yard thus his nickname "PC Plod". Dodger sired only a few litters, but was the Sire ,Grand sire and Great-Grandsire of three generations of champions. |

Am & Can Ch Ganymede's Gold Charm Agn. (2003-2008) This is a photo by Noora Haapanen, a perfect picture capturing the essence of this wonderful little dog. As Noora would say "my little Stinky", a name we all affectionately called her. At just over 4 years of age we lost Trinket to Inflammatory Bowel Disease, a battle we (she) fought for nearly a year. With no known cause or cure, on February 18th 2008 Trinket took a turn for the worst and one of the hardest decisions of our 30 years in dogs had to be made, one we will struggle with for years to come. She will be sadly missed by all the family Noora, Joanne and Al. |
