Description

About us....We met Dick & Glenna Briggs way back in the early 80's when we were looking for an Airedale puppy to become a part of our family. We purchased a female from them and named her Wendy. She quickly became a big part of our lives and a great baby-sitter for our 2-year-old son. We had her for 4 wonderful years before she was stolen from our yard never to be returned. It was late 1997 before we decided that we were ready for another Airedale, once again we contacted the Briggs and they had a litter on the ground. I went to see them and one of the females "picked" me to be her person. She became Briggsdale Penny McGee and my constant companion. When we bought her, the plan was for Dick to show her to her AKC Championship, no problem with us on that note. We made several trips back and forth to their place so they could see how she was maturing. She matured very well and the time came for Dick to start showing. Only problem was that I had not realized that she needed to live there so he could groom her....by this time Penny & I were nearly inseparable and under no circumstances was I leaving her there. It was at that point in time that I told Dick he was going to have to teach me how to groom so she could stay at home with me (I had no idea what I was getting into!). Dick was most agreeable to that and began teaching me to groom...little did I know what was about to take place. Penny & I made many trips back & forth to Holliday, TX while I was learning to groom. We entered our first show and didn't really do as well as I thought we would.....but we stuck it out and a couple of months later earned our first point. Penny loved to be in the show ring and was easy to show. With Dick & Glenna's help we finished her Championship and bred our first litter. Since that time we have finished or helped to finish 5 Airedales (3 of which we bred) and currently have several waiting their turn on the sidelines.

We added the Welsh to our household in 1999. We acquired a male from for the Briggs who became Briggsdale CS Mi 'T Joe Young, aka Festus. He turned out to be quite a pill after earning several points towards his championship so we decided to end his show career. He has sired 2 champions for us, Ch. Tollgate Roc'N Cornerstone, co-bred with Becky Eterno, and Ch. Briggsdale Juliet. Over the past couple of years we have helped to finish 3 other Welsh and have a couple waiting their turn.
