President
Candice Thompson
I was born into a Border Collie family with my parents owning a working bred Border Collie called Ralph and a purebred Border Collie called Jana. I became a registered breeder in 2006 and shortly after I began showing my heart dog, Lady (Ch. Monlaird Lady Of The Lake).
Over the years I have owned and/or shown dogs from many different kennels titling over 20 dogs and Supreme Champion titling one, with 2 very close to their Grand/Supreme titles before I retired them for personal reasons. To date, I have bred 15 Champions, all of which I am very proud of. I have dabbled in a bit of herding over the years and I like to think of myself as a breeder who not only breeds quality show dogs, but one who breeds dogs who could do the job they were born to do.
I have been the Show Secretary since the beginning of the club covering four Championship Shows, and was proud to have been the inaugural President for the Border Collie Club of South Australia and guide the club in the right direction over the first couple of years before handing the reins to Matt Fisher, who unfortunately is not nominating for re-election.
