Piper proved she was a tough kid from the get go. The only live puppy in her litter (3 born dead) she was only 5oz at birth which is less than half the expected weight of a newborn Collie. From the beginning she proved she was here to stay. With her Mom's care and extra food and the occasional sock sweater, she has continued to grow and thrive and she is normal in both height and weight as an adult.

At her very first show weekend she went WB for her first point over adults from the puppy class.  She took 2nd in her class at the Collie Club of America Specialty show in 2017 and also won a 5 point Specialty major at the Inland Empire Collie Club. She picked up a final all breed 4 pt major to finish.

Piper is missed everyday.
