TAMARON COLLIES
Tamaron Collies now has 61 champions. Our latest homebred champion , Ch Tamaron's Island Breeze (Breeze, daughter of Landon),
finished at 10 months with 6 breed wins.
We are a family operation established in 1988 under the direction of Trudy Taphorn. Located 3/4 hour's drive northwest of Edmonton (Alberta, Canada), Tamaron was named Top Breeder of Rough Collies in Canada in 1992, 1999, and 2000. To date, our Collies have garnered 61 homebred champions, including the 1996 CCC National (BOS in Specialty, BW and BP), 1997 CCC National (Best in Specialty), 2004 CCC National (WB), and the 2006 CCC National (BW and BP in Specialty), 2 international titles, 1 multi Specialty winning Australian Champion, 11 obedience titles, 4 Herding Instinct titles, and 6 co-bred champions. We hope this web site helps to answer your questions about us and our dogs. We have tried to provide information specific to us, as well as to the breed to help out those not familiar with Rough and Smooth Collies.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
Wednesday, April 16:
We have puppies!!! Celine had a gorgeous litter of 4 on April 12th. There are 2 blue girls and 2 tri boys. I have co-bred this litter with Carol so I guess we will both be keeping a blue girl and a tri boy! If the tri boy I am taking turns out, he is already promised to a show home in Smithers, BC and the blue girl I choose will be staying here. Now if only there had been a tri girl to breed to my sable merle smooth male Kennedy...............
Speaking of which, Jasmine (Ch. Blossom Hill Tamaron's Promise) has now been bred to Kennedy and if she caught, puppies are due the middle of June. I am VERY excited about this litter! Kennedy's dad is Jasmine's almost full brother Edge (Ch. Blossom Hill Cutting Edge) so this breeding will really tighten up on the beautiful heads from the Blossom Hill pedigree.
On the show scene, I finished Fallon (Ch. Tamaron's Heartfelt) the first weekend in April at the Red Deer shows. She was BW one day and BW, BB the last day to finish. She also made the cut in a large Herding group. The next weekend, I took Blush (Tamaron's Caught in the Act) to a set of shows and she was WB, BOS over a Special the first day and BW, BB over a Special and Group 3 the second day to put her on 6 points. Everyone is starting to dump coat so this coming weekend will probably be my last weekend showing collies for awhile. I will have fun with just my Whippet for a couple months!
