'Lilli' Hillin Amigo Pilar with Beksam

The first Beksam puppies were born in the 1960s when my parents, Joy and Arthur Ford bred their first litter of Boston Terriers. In the early 1970s we bought our first Bearded Collie and I went in to partnership with my parents. We bred, showed and loved our Beardies for many years. In fact, in 2004 we lost our last girl after 35 years of happy Beardie ownership.

We bought our first Whippet in 1981 and I was hooked. The Whippets are still my first love. They share our home and hearts with Lilli, the Spanish Water Dog (who is also very special) and four elderly Miniature Schnauzers (who still act like naughty children).

All our dogs live in the house, and are primarily much loved members of the family. However, I enjoy breeding and showing the Whippets. Lilli is also great fun to show and has had some success in the ring. Grace and I have been attending obedience classes and both having tremendous fun.

I don't breed many litters but when I do, I strive to produce puppies of high quality and excellent temperament. I am always delighted to hear of the joy my puppies bring to their new owners.
