We
have had collies since our childhood, but we only started breeding in 1958 under
the name “Morit Collies Kennel” honoring our first collie whose name was
“Morito”. All those years ago, many more would still go by before the foundation
of the Federación Cinológica Argentina of which we were promoters, we made up
our first champions at shows held by the Argentine Rural Society.
We began breeding with some dogs of British and American bloodlines. Years went
by and in January 1979 when we had the chance to go to the our first National
held by the Collie Club of America we suffered a shock, which is why we decided
to start all over again. That is the reason why we acquired new stock from the
main and most important lines at that time (mainly TWIN CREEKS, WESTWEND,
HANOVER, LOU-MAR, and others) and considering this we decided to start afresh
with a new kennel name: KING'S ROSE
COLLIES.
Since then we have made up 100 champions, either imported or out of our own dogs.
Between them are Uruguayan, Chilean, Peruvian and Bolivian Champions and we are
very proud of the very first Argentine born American Champion which was bred by
us.
Amongst our dogs we have had some special ones like: Am.CH.WESWEND´S PAPER ROSE,
Best Puppy and Winners Bitch at the National Specialty held by the Collie Club
of America.
Am.CH.TWIN CREEK´S NITTY GRITTY
top producing female at the time in America (mother of the famous sire CH.TWIN
CREEK'S POST SCRIPT).
We also imported Am.CH.TWIN CREEK'S MAIN EVENT, who the same as Paper Rose and
Nitty Gritty were sired by Am.CH.TWIN CREEK'S TRUE GRIT, a Top Producer in
America. These bitches, amongst other top quality American imports were the
foundation of our breeding. Amongst them I shall mention Am.CH.RENWICK CLASSIC
MANNER,
CH.LOU-MAR'S
COAL MINER, CH.HANNOVER'S EAR WIND AND FIRE, INT.CH.WINDFALL'S DIAMOND JUBILEE,
CADEN'S CRACKLING ROSE, PARADICE LEADER OF THE PACK,
TWIN CREEK'S GROVIN
We have bred some outstanding Champions such as CH.KING'S ROSE NIGHT AND DAY,
CH.KING'S ROSE CHARLIE BROWN,
CH. KING'S ROSE
SILVER SHADOW,
CH.KING'S ROSE COMMING FASHION,
CH.KING'S ROSE GOLDEN XUXA,
CH.KING'S ROSE JOHN JOHN,
right up to our two present specials: INT. CH. KING'S ROSE A DREAM COME TRUE
winner of 19 SPECIALTY BEST IN SHOWS and
CH,KING'S ROSE TOO MUCH with 5 SPECIALTY
BEST IN SHOWS to date.
In 2000 and again in 2001 we have had the # 1 Collie in both statistics COLLIE
CLUB ARGENTINO and in the FEDERACION CINOLOGICA ARGENTINA:
Arg. GR.
CH.Lat. Amer. CH. INT. CH. KING 'S ROSE A DREAM COME TRUE
(Rocky). Number 2 Collie in both
statistics is our other sire
Arg. GR. CH.Lat. Amer. CH.
INT. CH. KING 'S ROSE TOO MUCH (TOMMY).
KING'S ROSE COLLIES was also awarded BEST BREEDER and BEST EXHIBITOR for both
2000 and 2001.
During 2002 our CH.KING'S ROSE BRIGHT
FUTURE won 5 SPECIALTY BEST IN SHOWS and became the Number 1 Collie for the year
in Argentina, and KING’S ROSE was once again BEST BREEDER and BEST EXHIBITOR.
Again in 2003 our CH.KING'S ROSE A DREAM COME TRUE was # 1 Collie and yet again
we were awarded BEST BREEDER and EXHIBITOR in the COLLIE CLUB ARGENTINO.
We would like to add that during many years we didn’t compete in the rankings or statistics and that due to special circumstances we decided to show our dogs more often so that everyone could see that we still breed with the same love and show our dogs with the same enthusiasm as 45 years ago.
And we have reached our 100th Champion!!!

On September 1st., 2002, our “BUCK” (King's Rose Bright Future) became our 100th. Champion under breeder judge Graciela García Grigera and went on to win Best in Show. He was also Number 1 Collie for 2002 for the COLLIE CLUB ARGENTINO y SHETLAND. (To date two new Champions have been added to this long list).
