Dot began training at 13 months and despite a rather late start became a highly trained sheepdog. She is off Derek Scrimgeour's Ben and out of Whiterose Nan (litter sister to Whiterose Kep).

Both of her grandfathers were members of their national teams (D Cahill's Tass 1993, Irish) and (A Kyme's Moss 1994, English) so she has all the ingredients needed for the job and an awful lot to live up to! Did I mention that her great-great grandfather - Mrs J Simpson's Moss 175220 - was (you've guessed it) International Supreme Champion in 1996!

Dot has now gone to Idaho in the USA where she will herd cattle and train for North American Agility Competitions. She a great little dog and we miss having her around but her new owner is delighted with her and we know Dot will have a great life in the 'States
