The photo above is of Toby when he had just started his show career
- at 3 years of age
with his cheeky,happy face
that always seems to be "smiling"

"Toby"
is a son of my first Collie, Beau.  Toby has inherited his fathers gorgeous happy go lucky attitude.  He also has Beau's "trait" that he only needs one invitation to be a clown & boy can he put on a show.  Toby has succeeded in winning many hearts at ringside with his antic's since his late debut to the show ring in 2002. 

Toby came back to live with us at Mavmon when his previous owners
both met with tragic accidents leaving them with crippling injuries - they could no longer cope with caring for him & luckily asked us if we could take him back.   He was welcomed home with open arms and he quickly settled in with his now best mates, Bob & Jack.   Toby was put on an immediate diet (he had definately been in a "good paddock" at his previous home), he needed work done on his coat; which was completely understandable in the circumstances that he came from; and he had to be taught that jumping up on people was not nice (once I hauled myself back up off the ground a couple of times this became No. 1 priority). 
After quite a few months we stood back & looked at him again - what we saw was most pleasing. Toby was finally starting to recoat and having lost a lot of weight his overall appearance & movement was much better.  It was decided to give him a try in the showring.  He took to showing like a duck does to water!  After a couple of "green" tries which weren't
really too dramatic (like bounding around the ring,  loving the judge & barking to tell everyone he was having a great time) he soon settled down and is now picking up CC's & BOB's at Championship shows.  Like his Dad he is a very trainable fellow, eager to learn & oh so eager to please.  Even though he was an adult when he made his ring debut you would think he had been doing it since a baby.  He is even eager to jump into the dog float to get to the show .............just because I ask him too!

We are very proud of our Toby Tyler
