Conservatively line bred pups from Dewi Jenkins’ Clwyd Bob and Jock, with 6% CoI6.
The dam, Sue, is a big, strong, SMART, tough bitch by Dewi’s Clywd Bob and a daughter of James McCloskey’s Sweep, with Serge Van der Zweep’s Gary on her dam site. Sue is big and strong enough that she is often mistaken for a male. A TFB who recently assumed the mantle of head bitch.
The sire, Mirk, is firecracker youngster by Dewi’s International Supreme Champion Jock, with Ricky Hutchinson’s Sweep on the dam site. Mirk is smart, intense, physically gifted, powerful and compliant.
Dewi’s dogs work both sheep and cattle.
Clwyd Bob is the #1 sheep dog stud in the world: most consistent producer of high quality working dogs, most in demand. This line breeding reinforces the desirably characteristics of Clwyd Bob and his sire, Jock, the International Supreme Champion. A pair of Sweeps from James McCloskey and Ricky Hutchinson in the mix make this is an exciting match!
The litter should fall right in the strike zone of ideal working pups: powerful, intense, smart, intuitive and biddable. Sue is full sister to the top dog on the farm in Vermont, Peter.
Dewi Jenkins told me, “I would be very excited about that pairing.” And I am!
Litter is due 9-July-2025. Puppies stay on the farm until 16 weeks for socialization and evaluation on sheep. Working farms rather than sheep dog competitors preferred. Litter clear of testable genetic diseases by parentage (Orivet full breed profile). Pups located in Strafford, Vermont.
