Grand Champion Baqilodge Paid The Piper

Fully owned, handled and adored by Julie and Muriel Kaden of Mistryde
Shetland Sheepdogs, Dollar has had an exemplary show career. 

He is one of Australia’s best known collies with a large fan base. He has won the hearts of many people.

In his show career his big wins were:

• Multiple Best in Shows
• Runner-up Champions of the Future Contest, 2007
• Runner-up Working Dog of the Year, 2007

He had a 1:2 ratio for in-group, in-show wins during his show career.

but….

the pinnacle was his Best Exhibit in Show at the Australian Collie National show in  Victoria 2007 – under Judge: Ms Myrna Shiboleth  from Israel.

From his very first show he showed so much promise, winning Baby in Show All Breeds 

At 12 Weeks

Winning numerous Best of Breeds, In-Group, In-Show and Best in Show wins he titled (became a Champion) the week after his 1st birthday. (This was at a time when dogs could not gain their Australian Championship before 12 months of age).

 He shone in the show ring and was happy to be handled by one and all.  He loved his youngest handler.

Dollar and his youngest handler, Nicalie.

He is the brother of Champion Baqilodge Picaresque, and the father of Champion Baqilodge Bring Me Red Roses and Champion Baqilodge Business As Usual.  He was only ever used at stud twice by us and, sadly, was never used by other breeders. This was through no fault of his own!   His two litters produce 10 puppies. A number have gone on to be therapy dogs, working with people with disabilities and the two that we kept became Australian Champions with excellent show careers of their own.

At home with one of his sheltie mates.
