Tinsel is a story on it's own   ..........
When we had her mother Farouche mated to Impy again we did so with the intention to keep a bitch.
We promised the best blue merle bitch to a breeder in Australia ( Scotsdream Shelties) and our hearts went to one of the two tricolour bitches in this litter ........
But as usual when things are settled something that you can't foresee happens: when the puppies were 8 weeks of age their grandmother Blazecroft Danish Blue died so we just knew we had to keep a blue merle.

 

As we promised the best blue merle bitch to go to Australia we picked our next choice in blue merles to stay with us and send her sister Aspen down under :-)
For as long as Aspen was with us Tinsel was overshadowed by her sister, we just didn't see a 'showdog' in Tinsel and only showed her sister Aspen for the time she was with us.

It was only after Aspen had left for Australia that we thought about showing Tinsel for one or two times and than also still because we wanted some company for our young males on their trips to shows.
At her first show ever she proved that we were so wrong about her, she won her class, became Best of Breed and  by the end of the day went home with the Best in Show cup

Only two months after her first experience at a show she went to the Dutch clubshow and proved she was quite serious about being a showdog ;-)
From the Juniorclass she won BEST OF BREED of over 200 Shelties entered that day and since that day carries the Clubwinner title just like her mum did in 2002.

Since than, she has never looked back, we are now taking Tinsel very seriously and this resulted in several champion titles already ;-)
