Because we are a smaller breeder and our main concentration is competing we will only occasionally have puppies for sale.
Scottish borders
For almost 40 years the 'Kilnhurst Clan' originally comprised of Border Collies, has encompassed dogs both pedigree and crossbreed, home-bred and rescue. Our Affix was granted in 1999.
Our foundation MAS bitch imported in 2008, our foundation stud in 2010. We bred the second UK litter of MAS in 2011 and now have three generations of MAS from lines we know and love, having incorporated and imported further dogs from respected USA breeders who are valued friends and mentors.
The dogs are our family and loved companions. They are holistically raised, raw fed and minimally vaccinated, fully health tested and of excellent temperament. We usually breed one litter each year, pups are raised in the heart of the household.
We compete successfully in Agility and Scentwork. Our pups are making us proud in canine sports at every level, as 'therapets', loyal family members and sofa warmers.
Staffordshire
At Ivormyth we are passionate about breeding the best possible dogs, with great health, temperament, structure and working ability. They are our partners in sports and conformation with the ability to reach the very top level as well as being wonderful family members.
Puppies from us have made exceptional active family pets who love going on hikes and to the local café. We have also selected and raised puppies who have successfully gone on to be medical alert dogs and therapy dogs, as well as dogs competing in flyball, conformation, Good Citizens, Crufts, agility, YKC, heelwork to music, obedience, rally, CaniX and herding.
Most weekends we compete at agility shows across the UK, with many of our dogs reaching Grade 7 and running in Championship classes. We always love to meet people who are interested in our dogs, so please come and say hello if you see us.
