Since 1986 six Hollybridge Border Terriers have been exported to America, I am pleased to say that five of them have made American Champions

  The first Hollybridge Export (1986) was Am Ch Hollybridge Red Jester, a Ch Dandyhow April Fool X Dandyhow Sweet Corn son. He was owned by Kris Blake.

  Travelling together in 1987 were 

Am Ch Hollybridge Storm Warning CDX JE. (Ch Cuileann Dodger X Dandyhow Silver Sixpence) owned by Nancy Brown and Am Ch

Raffles, AKA Rugby, exceeded everyone’s expectations by siring 21 Am Champions to date and making breed history several times in his younger years as he accumulated titles in AKC obedience, tracking, agility and earthdog. Rugby’s records for titles earned have since been taken from him by his children and grandchildren who have between them amassed well over 100 AKC titles. 

Sadly Rugby died this autumn, he will be greatly missed by Jane and Steve
Rugby sired 21 Champions. He was a past record holder for number of AKC titles earned in the breed. He passed on his intelligence and steady temperament to his offspring, some of whom have broken his title record. His pups have earned well over 100 AKC titles including the most advanced titles in AKC obedience, tracking, agility and earthdog. He was awarded Best Veteran two months shy of his 14th birthday at the 2001 BTCA Nat'l Specialty in a record entry of 34 Champion Veterans shown under English breed judge Kathy Wilkinson.(Otterkin)

Am Hollybridge Rainman  AKA Mickey. (Hollybridge Rory X Hollybridge Beechnut) was taken by Marion Reeves to America to live with her friend Beth Brewer in 1993, at the age of 12mths.
