The theme for the 2008 specialty is "In Pursuit of Excellence". We are looking for a photograph of the Border Collie that best exemplifies this theme with intensity of expression showing detail of the eyes, ears, and head.  Jeanne Hagen-Santiago will use this photo to create a portrait to be used for the specialty logo. This contest is open only to dogs owned by BCSA members.  The owner of the dog in the winning photo will receive a limited edition print of the logo. In the case of multiple owners, the owner listed first on the AKC registration will receive the print.
