Description
Pip, an 8-year-old smooth coat, black and white border collie is a 3-time Soldier Hollow gold medal winner and a USBCHA National Champion. He was imported by Scott from Scotland when he was 12 weeks old and he had a special something that Scott knew was going to make him a winning trial dog. In 2023 he went to the World Trial in Ireland and his 3rd place podium finish made him the highest placing North American trained dog ever. One week later he won the United States Border Collie Handler’s Association National Championships. He is the current Canadian Champion and as such will Captain the Canadian team at the World Trial in Scotland this Fall. Pip is a house dog who will steal and eviscerate any unattended stuffed toys.
Scott Glen grew up on a cattle ranch in Southern Alberta, Canada. When he decided to branch out to sheep farming and headed to a fair for a sheep shearing demo, he got distracted by a sheepdog herding demonstration—and the rest is history. For over 35 years, Scott has been professionally training dogs at his kennel, Alta-Pete Stockdogs, which has produced multiple National Finals winners.
Scott’s record speaks for itself: 7-time USBCHA National Champion, 6-time Canadian Champion, and 6-time Soldier Hollow winner. He’s won the coveted Best International Shed trophy an unprecedented 10 times and has represented Canada at the World Trials multiple times, placing 3rd in Ireland in 2023—the highest-ever finish by a North American handler. Scott is currently the Canadian Team Captain and a Hall of Fame member of the American Border Collie Handler’s Association, along with his legendary dog Alice.
