Description
Eddie is a dog that “takes his work seriously.” A good outrunning dog with a lot of balance and a good listener that wants to be a team player. He recently won the Double Lift Final at the Frio Sheepdog Classic, beating his dad, “Finn,” who Faansie is also running here at Soldier Hollow.
Faansie is from South Africa and is back at Soldier Hollow for the sixteenth time. One of South Africa’s dominant handlers, he is now one of North American’s leading handlers – a handler greatly respected throughout the world. Faansie and his family came to the United States in December 2014 and are now living in Texas. Faansie travels all over the U.S., giving lessons and clinics and competing with his fine dogs. In addition to raising, training and selling border collies, the Bassons also raise and sell border terriers. Faansie was the 2022 Meeker Champion and Reserver Champion with his dogs Jack and Finn, both running here at Soldier Hollow.
