Kelliwic Border Collies Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Who did the artwork of the dog in the ABCA logo used on the website and on pedigree/paperwork? Was the dog based on or inspired by a specific dog, and if so, who? I thought I remember hearing that there was a particular dog (maybe moreso a specific photo of the dog), but I don't remember who.

NCStarkey Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Hi Megan, I don't know the history of the ABCA logo artwork, but that dog looks like the same dog on the History page of the ABCA website ( http://www.americanbordercollie.org/History.htm ) labeled as "Zac" ABCA 1. nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abcollie Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Hi Megan, I don't know the history of the ABCA logo artwork, but that dog looks like the same dog on the History page of the ABCA website ( http://www.americanbordercollie.org/History.htm ) labeled as "Zac" ABCA 1. nancy That would be Dr. Leroy Boyd's Zac ... first dog registered with ABCA. He wrote the program (or maybe his son was the "computer guy" ... it's been a few years :@) for the ABCA registry. Zac was sired by Raymond McPherson's Zac (again counting on the "memory" which isn't as good as it use to be :@). One thing I do remember is he was a really nice dog :@) I always remember dogs better than anything else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelliwic Border Collies Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Thanks, Nancy. I searched but all I found was her name in some pedigrees (mostly associated with Imp. Glyn) and a children's author in NC. Was curious about other Border Collie art, if she'd done any. Thanks again to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
