This is the clan taken in May 2008 while visiting relatives.

We have from left to right: Missy, (Beardoni Aura of Mischief). Suki (Beardoni's Fay Wray), Phynn, (Penhallow's Phantazmal Phynn Over Beardoni) and
Charley, (Netis Shakiyra del Beardoni).

Phynn has pinched the ball and the girls are giving chase!

Bred by Jo Pickford and Gill Auker, Phynn was our first 'posh' beardie. (My first beardie being a brown bitch that I was given as she needed one to one attention and training, she was also my first agility dog, and although never got out of starters, did get to Crufts in the team event!) Once owned by a beardie, always owned by a beardie.

We never intended showing Phynn, but got him purely as a pet and companion (when my old German Shepherd died) and to have another go at agility with. He is a lovely boy, super temperament and is currently enjoying having his little harem around him. He just loves the jumping part of agility but has a slight problem with those nasty contact things.

Born on 5/11/98, Phynn has a hip score of 2:4 and has been eye tested - all clear.

Suki is now free from maternal duties and is back in the show ring, doing cani-x and pulling my dog scooter and .... loving it.

Her daughter Kira, is having a break from showing in order to mature a little and have fun doing other things.

Suki's hip score is 4:3
DNA markers show she is Clear of Cerebellar Ataxia
Eyes were tested on 15/9/10 and showed no abnormalities.

We are a small home based kennel, all our dogs live in with us and are a major part of our family - okay so they outnumber the humans!

I have owned bearded collies since 1985, the first being a lovely Sallen bitch, Sean added spinoni to our home in 2003. It is only since 2004 that we have had the time and money to devote to breeding.

We only breed from our girls because we'd like to keep a pup for ourselves, we don't breed that often, usually around once a year at most, therefore we very occasionally have pups available for very special homes. Our aim is to breed the best we can, with health and temperament being the most important aspects.

Our pups are well socialised and loved and will go to approved homes only. Please expect to be well quizzed if you are interested in getting a pup from us. We like keep in contact with our 'extended family' and love hearing about their successes and antics.

Beardoni would like to wish friends and family all the best in whatever canine pursuit they enter, be it breed showing, agility, obedience or just being a happy family.

We are happy to give advice on either Beardies or Spinone and take bookings for pups.
