✨Galafazia’s Perfect Destinies ✨

Pippilotta Starflight of Galafazia x Lavinis Cricket

Due mid October 2024

Pippi is a beautiful red merle Border Collie x working Springer Spaniel who excels in multiple dog sports with her junior handler owner / trainer Beatrice. Pippi is first and foremost a lovely dog to be around, she has incredible drive and intelligence without being over-complicated. She has a kind nature, and is an honest and loyal little dog with a big heart. Whilst her main sport and passion is flyball, she also trains and competes in obedience and canicross, as well as enjoying agility, hoopers and mantrailing when she has the time.

Pippi has qualified for Crufts in YKC Crossbreed and Obedience in 2022, 2023 and 2024, winning her finals every year and has qualified in both the YKC obedience finals and GCDS Special Pre-Beginner Obedience final in 2025.

Pippi measures 10” UKFL for flyball, measures 47cm at the withers and weighs 12-13kg. Her current PB for flyball is around 4.06 seconds which we expect to drop to sub-4 once she is back racing next year.

Cricket is a stunning Border Staffy x Blue Cedar mix owned and loved by Joe and Megan Lamont / Rosavelocita Sport Dogs. Cricket races with Tails We Win flyball teams and has been part of multiple sub-15 lineups with a PB of 3.56. Cricket measures 10” UKFL and his previous pups have measured between 9” and 11” and are excelling in the lanes. Cricket has a beautiful temperament and will bring some speed and power to the pups whilst complimenting Pippi’s lovely nature.

Our aim is to produce a litter of temperamentally stable pups with a great work ethic and trainability, plus power and drive. The size and combined temperaments of the parents should make them ideal sports dogs for junior handlers. Colour-wise, we are expecting some merles but the other colours could be anything goes! Heights could vary but we are expecting them to be similar in size to the parents, give or take an inch.

Both parents are fully health tested. Based on the Norfolk / Suffolk border. We have a waiting list but enquiries for this or future litters are welcome.

Many thanks to Marija Drobac - Design for Breeders for the beautiful litter ad

Very happy to announce that these two have had two hot dates, and all going well we are expecting puppies in mid October!

Pippi - working springer x border collie (agility bred). 10” flyball dog, measures intermediate for agility. 12kg

Cricket - border staffy x blue cedar mix. 10” flyball dog, would measure intermediate for agility. Superb flyball dog with Tails We Win flyball team.

Both dogs have been chosen for temperament first and foremost, to produce multi-purpose sports pups who should excel at flyball, agility, canicross, obedience, whatever they are put to. Driven and focussed with great speed, but able to switch off and relax at home!

Sports homes will be a must for these pups.
