Former Robin Taylor's DOC

Doc is the image of his sire, Moss. He is so much like him that it is sometimes difficult to tell one from the other. Doc works with the same beautiful style and power that made his sire successful. He has impeccable bloodlines (just look at his pedigree!) and managed to get his dam's wonderful working biddability.

Blake Childer's THUNDER

Thunder is a very hard hitting male with all the power and talent expected from line bred McCallum dogs. Thunder is also a full brother to our own Callie. He is a true cow dog in the style of the big ranches of Kansas. Thunder works cattle in a stockyard in Georgia. He is big and bold, an exceptional listener, and hits head and heel with a very strong bite.

Robin Taylor's CORRIE

Corrie is a very steady working sheepdog out of impeccable bloodlines. She is out of David Henry's Spook and David Henry's Beryl and carries the beautiful working style of Wilson's Roy. She is an extremely biddable dog with a great work ethic. She is good to her stock but has plenty of power when needed.

Douglas Capps' BRIGHT LADY

Bright is a wonderful female version of her sire, Lanky (see above). She is very strong and courageous. She works any kind of cattle including cow/calf pairs. She is small and compact at about 40 lbs. She listens well and has a nice work ethic. Bright is a full sister to our own Legs (see above). We are very proud of this Possum Hollow offspring!

Former Possum Hollow's CALLIE

Callie is the dam of our Legs and Doug Capps' Bright. She is out of McCallum's Boss lines. She is a very strong working cow dog with plenty of bite and produced some of our best pups.

Robin Taylor's MOSS

Moss has gone to the big herding field in the sky but his legacy lives on in our Mick and Tof. Moss was a powerful working cow dog that could do it all. He was tough as nails, smart as a whip and full of natural cow sense. We miss you Moss.

Former Possum Hollow's Lock-Eye Dixie

Dixie is the granddam of our Thorn. She is super fast, super quick, amazingly agile and smart as can be. She worked cattle, goats and sheep for us but was best with goats and cattle. She was our solid "chute" dog and could move any type of animal in tight spaces. Dixie was retired to an agility home and they love her.

Former Possum Hollow's Brick

Brick is the dam of our Thorn. She is out of Marianna and Nancy Schreeder's lines. She is a good working cow dog with plenty of bite and has produced some wonderful pups.

Possum Hollow's Mairi

Mairi is very stylish and strong moving. She is a dedicated working farm dog. She hits head and heel and then settles right back into working. She heels low and hits the head on the face. She has a natural outrun and is big enough to have power without bite when she needs it. She is very athletic and has a strong work ethic. Mairi has a wonderful loving personality and is very friendly. She is beautiful, has a great personality and a winning pedigree.
