Twig was the only female in a litter of 6, and she was a stand-out from the beginning.  I was madly in love with her, but when I found out my incredible friend Donna was interested in a little girl, I knew it was meant to be. Donna and Carla showed Twig beautifully, and in 2019 Twig not only won our National Border Terrier Specialty under esteemed judge Richard Reynolds, but was the #1 Border Terrier in Canada.  Twig is the whole package, beauty, brains, drive and phenomenal temperament.

Words can't describe how absolutely sweet and wonderful Cactus is.  She is loving, smart, hardworking, sensible, keen and very funny.  At home, she is always at my feet, never missing an opportunity to cuddle.  When training and competing in sports, she gives 110% all the time and excels at everything she does.

Lexi was my first ever Border Terrier, and was my true Heart Dog.  We've been through a lot over the years, and her memory still brings me laughs and so much joy.  Lexi had a amazing heart, and always gave her all in everything she did, from flyball to begging for treats.  Lexi has been a huge ambassador for the breed, and is well known by her nickname, "Sexy Lexi".    At the age of 16.5 years old, she told me she was ready to go, and peacefully passed away in my arms.  I will miss her forever.
