Virtu Collies
Virtu was inspired by both Ch. Asil Who's Who and Ch. Tartanside Heir Apparent. Years ago a continental search for expresssion and type (focused on dogs from associated kennels with extensive line-breedings based on Ch. Asil's Who's Who and Ch. Tartanside Heir Apparent) took place to enable Virtu Collies to reproduce the much sought after "look". In Canada Virtu joined the family alongside Kaiteka and Alfenloch. In the US the famous Ravette, Tartanside, Hi Vu, Candray and Glen Hill were some of the dominant names from 'the family'. This search culminated in the
the acquistion of direct sons and daughters and only those heavily line bred from:
Ch. Tartanside Heir Apparent
Ch. Asil's Who's Who
Ch. Tartanside Th' Critics Choice
Ch.Tartanside Presentation
Can Ch. Knockout by Kaiteka
Ch. Alfenloch Masterpiece
Can Ch. Virtu's In Excess
