    The Symes Family (Dawn, Shannon and Jaxson) would like to welcome you to our website!  Bearded Collies have been a part of our lives since 1994 when we welcomed "Miss Digger" into our family.  She was the queen of the roost and enjoyed her job.  Our precious Digger left us in May of 2006.     

     In 1998 while living in Massachusetts, we decided one just wasn't enough.  This is when "Duncan" entered our lives.  He was our first show beardie and was owner/handled to his championship at a young age.  Duncan is a multiple group placing Am/Can Champion that also has been awarded multiple AOM's and Best Veteran in Specialty.

    "Anna", Ch Buckram's T Party at Beantown  joined the family in 2001.  Anna then gave us "Brody", Ch Aberlour's One In a Million.  Brody finished his Championship with all major wins as well as being awarded Reserve Winners Dog at the BCCC 2006 Specialty. 

         In 2006, Anna gave us the last of 3 litters and in it was "Henry", Ch Aberlour's Best of the Best.  Henry finished his Ch in style by going WD/BOW for a 4 point major.

      In December 2007,  "Dee Dee" aka Wigglesworth Dynamite joined the Aberlour family.  Dee Dee has received multiple blue ribbons at specialties and has been awarded a Puppy Group first at an All Breed Show.  Dee Dee is being selectively shown at Specialties and all Breed Shows.

We are members of the Bearded Collie Club of America, The Bearded Collie Club of Canada, the Great Lakes Bearded Collie Club(past Board Member), and previously the Minuteman Bearded Collie Club(previous Board Member). 

Our goals as breeders of this beloved breed are clear; to produce happy, healthy, beautiful Bearded Collies and place them in loving homes.  To this end, we are committed to the following health screenings with normal to above average results on any dog we are breeding and breeding to:  CERF, Hips & Elbows OFA'd, Full Thyroid Panel.  In addition, we hope to be a resource for the families into which our puppies are placed throughout their lives.
