ROBENGER Kennels - Portuguese Water Dogs & Border Collies

Rosie and Gerry Walmsley have both had experience with dogs since they were children.  This web site has been developed to let people know what the history has been in the development of the kennel and what is happening now.

Please sign our guest book and let us know what you think about our site.  Do remember though that it has been created by us at ROBENGER Kennels and we are not IT professionals.

ROBENGER
The affix ROBENGER is made up of three elements.  When we were setting up an affix for our show kennel we wanted to incorporate 
ourselves in to the identity and at that time Rosie owned a dog that meant the world to her.  His name was Ben and he was a gentle giant. 
 
So the affix is made up of - RO is a shortening of Rosemary.  BEN is the incomparable dog that we felt had to be involved with the founding of the kennel.  GER is the shortened version of Gerry. 
 
Big old Ben played a major part in Rosie's life and was the inspiration for much of Rosies activities with dogs.  Rosie also had Murphy, a blue merle rough collie who she had from Brian House.  He was a lovely dog to and so many people enjoyed him on nightingale park, Cambridge, where we walked him and Ben.

It was in 1998 that Rosie and Gerry decided to get in to showing dogs.  The breed to choose though was a big decision.  We decided on Border Collies and we don't regret that at all.  We selected a lovely BC from Carolyn Ward.  We chose Candy and she was a marvelous foundation bitch.
 
Candy went on to have one litter of 7.  After achieving one reserve challenge certificate, Candy was involved in an accident which ended her showing career.  We very nearly lost her. but she is still with us and much loved by us all.
 
We were thankful to Carolyn again for our second Boarder Collie.  This was Benjie.  This is the dog that 'has never done anything wrong and never will', according to Rosie.  He is a truely loveley dog and a real pleasure to live with.  He was awarded a reserve challenge certificate and is now happily retired enjoying long walkes in the Sulehay quaries.
