Border Collie bitch. (Neutered)

Chess is owned by Katie, who runs the Canine Film Academy.

In her day she was rated at 5/5 and could turn her hand to anything. Chess is now 11 years old and has retired from film work.

She worked sheep, cattle and horses; she still waves, bows, nods her head and does all her basic obedience exercises readily and ethusiastically.

Chess loved the lime-light and will still work until she drops (if she's allowed to!)

A super dog. Chess was first photographed for Dogs Today Magazine in September 99 and has appeared frequently in the Magazine since then.
