Prefix : BALLYANN (Border Collie)
Enquiries always welcome. Ballyann are a small kennel in Sydney, Australia, exhibiting, trialling and breeding since 1980. Proud breeders of Conformation and Performance titled Border Collies, Tracie has also campaigned many other breeds successfully over the past 42 years. She is an ANKC (Dogs Australia) licenced judge for the Working, Gundog & Non Sporting Groups, a Junior Handler judge and Convenor of the DOGS NSW Junior Handler Working Party. She is currently a Trainee judge for the Toy Group. Bobanette was the long established kennel of Claude & Robyn McManus, with Peter joining the partnership in 1979. Bobanette was the home of Aust Ch Gotrah Charger & Aust Ch Firelynx Navajho Storm (J04) (imp UK), and they bred many Conformation and Performance titled Border Collies under this prefix. Unfortunately this prefix is no longer in use following the sad passing of Robyn McManus in 2016. Our daughter Kathleen has been involved with exhibiting and Junior Handlers from an early age, handling Border Collies and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. We only have a small number of dogs at home at any time and do not breed very often. Our dogs enjoy their lives with us both as competitive show dogs and our treasured family companions. We have been blessed by their presence. Peter & Tracie Buckley and Kathleen Fortini
