![]() Alfenloch has used as our foundation sire for our Collie family, the great Am. Ch. Tartanside the Gladiator, and have inbred and linebred on him intensely to create the "Masterpiece" look.  We were fortunate to be able to acquire co-ownerships in Am.Can.Ch.Tartanside Heir Apparent ROM and Am.Can.Ch.Tartanside Presentation (CCA Winners Dog), from Tartanside Collies; and both of these sires were prepotent for the "Gladiator" look that we loved and were used extensively in our breeding program. Am.Can.Ch.Alfenloch Masterpiece AOM ChP figures very prominently in every part of our current day pedigrees, along with Am.Ch.Tartanside The Gladiator, Am.Can.Ch.Tartanside Heir Apparent ROM ROMC and Am.Can.Ch.Tartanside Presentation ROMX, ChP. Only one outcross has been added into the present day Alfenloch Collie bloodlines, with the addition of two daughters of Am.Ch.Fantasy's Bronze Talisman ROM, who were chosen because they were both out of "Masterpiece" daughters. Am.Ch.Fantasy's Bronze Talisman ROM, is the top Collie sire in breed history and is a great grand-son of Am.Can.Ch.Alfenloch Masterpiece AOM ChP. Outstanding individuals of the Alfenloch Collie family include:
