"KB" was born in Tasmania he arrived in Townsville 27th May 1988 aged 11-1/2 weeks and from the time he set his paws into the show ring he never looked back. He was truly one of the GREAT AMBASSADOR'S for the border collie breed in his day!!. Consistantly winning Multiple Best Exhibit in Group/Runner-up in Group, Class in Group and in Show Awards up through all the age classes. Our beautiful boy had gained his Ch Title at fourteen months old. We are very proud of his many achievements.

KB retired from showing 1994 sitting on roughly 1500 CC Points to enjoy what he likes best and that's relaxing at home and swimming in our pool as much as possible. In 1998 the ANKC introduced the Grand Champion Title for dogs who had attained a total of 1000 CC Points. KB was bought out of retirement and returned to the show ring at 10-1/2 years old, to win that ONE Challenge needed to be granted his new Title, doing so with the greatest of ease in a FULL Challenge Dog line up!!!! also taking out the BEST VETERAN IN SHOW on the same day. Now back into retirement again for good!! We had the pleasure of this lovely boys company for sixteen and a half years and he will always take pride of place in our hearts his memory also lives on in his progeny.
