Billy is our first Champion--in both AKC and UKC! At his first show as a Special on April 13, 2002, Billy came away with a Group 3 under Judge Patrick N. Doniere! Billy is an awesome red boy and is out-producing himself (see his offspring below). He came to us from Rainyday Australian Shepherds in Texas in October 1999. Billy is moderate, but not in personality. He is very outgoing and cannot wait to go to a dog show or get into mischief. And Billy absolutely adores babies! Billy is primarily owner handled, with two Best of Breed wins out of the classes!!!

Billy is the sire to our:
AKC/ASCA/UKC CH Samilyns Bailiff-- (pictured below) Bailey is an Triple Champion, 3rd Place at the 2002 SNAC Nationals Pre-Show, BOB winner at 8 months and major pointed out of the puppy classes.
BIS UKC CH Samilyns Ain't Guilty No Mo' --Sha-nay-nay got WB/BOW/BOB over Specials for a 5 point major at only six months of age, and did it again in October 2003 under Breeder Judge Joni Johnson! She topped that with a UKC Best in Show at 7 months! Sha-nay-nay is also pointed AKC with multiple Reserves to Majors.
AKC/CKC/UKC CH Samilyns Bounty Hunter DNA-VP--(pictured below) Hunter has placed at both AKC and ASCA Nationals; was Best Opposite Sex puppy at the ASC of Michigan show, April 2002; and has multiple Reserve Wins in ASCA to majors, with limited showing.
UKC CH Samilyns Airtight Alibi--Ali finished her UKC Championship with a Group 4 and was Best Opposite Sex puppy at ASC of Michigan's largest show in May 2002.
ASCA CH Samilyns The Verdict Is Win--(pictured below) Winnie is a pretty black tri bitch now showing in Wyoming, where she has several best in show wins at small state 4-H shows. She has beautiful movement and looks just like her big sister Bailey!
Samilyns Conviction--Connie was BOB puppy all three days at the ASC of Michigan show, April 2001.
Samilyns Caught Red-Handed--Amber is a gorgeous red tri female, with three Winners Bitch placements in one UKC weekend by 10 year old Lindsey. She is now owned by Leslie Sorensen of Colorado Aussies, and is almost finished ASCA. Handy's daughter went to the 2004 AKC Nationals, getting 3rd Place, 9-12 month class, in Sweeps and Nationals.
Samilyns Constable--Bobby is Amber's brother and co-owned with the Munson family. Bobby got a Group 2 at his first AKC puppy match with 10 year old Samantha! This boy is just too cute!
