Jarod is Bearded Collie number five to enter our house and steal our hearts. On August 17, 2004 his mother Peaches gave birth to four lovely puppies. From the first day on I was very attracted to Jarod, and later on when he started to look like a very promising show and breed dog we decided to take him. On October 6 he came to live with us.

Jarod has got a very friendly and playful character, he used to spend whole days playing with Ginny and trying to get the other beardies to play with them too, now we don't have Ginny any more he has to play with the other dogs, and has found his new best friend in Elmo. Jarod has done really well at shows and we have enjoyed his successes, we feel privileged, owning such a great dog!

Jarod is always in for a game, he gets along with everyone and even though he generally is just playful and goofy he is also our alpha male and has a natural authority that is respected by everyone without him ever lifting a paw in anger. Jarod loves water, you cannot get him past a lake or canal without him having a swim, next to that he also loves toys and in particular balls. He is also a keen gardener and will assist with anything from pulling out weeds to mowing the lawn!

Jarod has produced 3 beautiful litters and we are very pleased to own his daughter Halo, she is a lot like her dad both in looks and character. Jarod now enjoys a happy retirement and loves helping Cippy chase the cats!
