Balvenie.  Bali.  Bean.  Momma.

​

When Marsha had asked if I would take over her breeding program, we needed to find the right bitch to continue the legacy.  The search took us to Germany, where Silke Sander & Jurgen Trux of Bonny and Clyde's Bearded Collies entrusted me with Bali.  

​

My heart dog. My ride-or-die.  This girl is always by my side, and she is my entire world.  

 

Bali  has dabbled in just about everything.  She is a certified Therapy Dog with St. John's Ambulance, and put in years of service in both the ICU and adolescent mental health in-patient hospital units.  She has worked flocks of sheep in open fields, and parkour'd her way across the continent. She is a multi-group winning Canadian Grand Champion​ in Conformation; and has earned her Canine Good Neighbour (CGN); Therapy Dog (THD) - the first Beardie in Canada to do so; and Novice Sprinter (NS) titles.  Her most favourite thing is her babies, and she is the most incredible Mom.  She has raised 18 wonderful puppies (9 boys, 9 girls). 

 

She is the ultimate alpha bitch, and ensures that everyone in her presence knows it (regardless of whose house she is in).  She is sassy, intelligent, kind, independent, hilarious, sweet, empathetic, and always up for anything.  

 

She IS Balvenie Bearded Collies, and truly embodies our vision.
