The Beginning

In 1970 Alasdair of Auldstane (Ch. Adrian of Enterkine X Ch. Gayleward’s Cullean) bred by Jan Buchanan, whom I called “Kaird”, came to me after a four year search for the perfect companion.

He was all that, and more. So began a life-long love affair with this breed regardless of where my profession has taken me.

Now we spend more time at Fern Hill working with the conservation land trust community, rebuilding our two heritage farms and relaxing…
