SHOW NEWS / CRITIQUES
Brooke started her puppy show career off pretty well, wininng her Crufts place at her second show. The girl has a lot of energy and enthusiasm and I am loving every second with her. I am pleased to say Brooke has qualified for a place on the British Collie Club Ladypark trophy list for her show achievements in 2019.
In 2021 brooke gained her stud book number, topping a quality limit class at skc. She places consistently at shows. Brooke is also competing in agility and went into grade 2 in just 3 competitions.

Steven’s Cambrogan Blowin A Hoolie – Just turned 6mths old sable bitch she has a lovely head such a kind eye, super ears, tight lip line would prefer more underjaw. Nice neck and back ratio good angulation. Excellent length of tail. A little slack in movement at present which I am sure will tighten with age.

Pastoral Puppy 1 Steven Cambrogan Blowin A Hoolie. A lovely RC who was unfortunate to up against older dogs in her breed class, full of breed type and extremely cheeky. Moved better in this class than previously. Feminine head with a sweet expression, beautiful coat and colour but to be slightly critical watch her weight as this could lead to her rolling on the move.
Jo Hodges
Steven’s Cambrogan Blowin A Hoolie. 8 month s/w, larger puppy than winner but again all in proportion. Has a good depth of body and keeps a level top line on the move. Slightly longer in foreface but a decent underjow, would prefer a more almond shaped eye. However she has neat ears and great showmanship. Was in good coat for age which was well groomed. covered the ground with ease, just needs to tighten in front movement.

Gary Gray- skc oct 2021
1st Steven’s, Cambrogan Blowin a Hoolie, 2 3⁄4 yrs shaded sable bitch of good quality and breed type, lovely headpiece. Nice clean head with a lovely dark, open eye of almond shape, giving a pleasing expression. Slightly out at elbow when not run at the right speed and that's why I double checked her, but that said, lovely reach of neck into well laid shoulder, good upper arm, good coupling height to length, strong top line into well moulded croup and strong hindquarters. She was sound both ways, when moved at the correct speed, steady side gait showing good reach & drive.

David Alcorn, hamilton canine aug 2022
PG (4) 1 Cambrogan Blowin A Hoolie. Presented the best outline in this class both standing and
moving. Liked her head a lot, with the correct wedge shape and strength of jaw, but with femininity and
a good expression. She is balanced in her angulation and nothing is to excess, which produces a sound
and accurate action on the move; tidy away and back and covering enough ground on the go around.
Presented in first class order too. BoB
Ulla persson, East Anglian Collie champ show Aug 2022
