Lambert, Beverly – ANNIE

Annie is a 5-year old female out of Alf Kyme’s Annie and Aled Owens’ Cap.  She was imported as a puppy and Beverly got her when she was about 8 months old as she didn’t suite her original owner. Annie’s great strength is her great desire to work with her handler. She is very obedient and willing. On the right sheep, she is smooth and beautiful to watch run. Annie has won many open trials.

Beverly is a handler with over 30 years of experience. She is one of only two handlers to win two Gold Medals at Soldier Hollow with her great dog, Pippa.  With her thirty years of experience, Beverly is a threat to win any trial she enters, and she is an articulate spokesperson for the sport.  Beverly describes sheepdog trials as the place where the dogs are “judged one against the other by their work, not by their looks.”
