THE MODERN BEARDED COLLIE
By Denise Barley (ca. 2001)
This working title that I was given begs the question of whether
there really is a "modern" as opposed to "old-fashioned"
type of Beardie. Since the term "old-fashioned" does
appear often in judging critiques, there must be something to
be said on this issue, so let us consider the history and development
of the breed. |

CHANGES TO PUPPY ENTRIES AT CRUFTS 2015
The minimum age requirement for dogs competing at Crufts has
been changed from eight months to six months, meaning that the
world's greatest dog show will now host Minor Puppy, Puppy and
Junior classes.
The change, which requires that dogs be a minimum of six months
old on the first day of the show, means that Crufts will now fall
in line with other Kennel Club licensed events, and allows dogs
qualifying at Boston and Manchester to compete at Crufts that
year. |

Championship Show held on 4th December. Prof Bedford MRCVS examined
both veterans and younger Beardies in order to determine the status
of eye health within the breed.
