Arghhhh I can't do any of that stuff! I definitely don't have clothes! What am I doing Don't suppose anyone knows of a showing class in Wagga do they?

I think these two sisters somewhat represent that "real" old type. Freia & Fricka, working line shepherds. Fricka's back is slightly too sloped for my liking but apart from that they look like they sure could work sheep all day, if not all week. Oooh Freia is stunning!

Yea he enjoyed it, a lot of people asked about him and wanted cuddles so lots of cuddles from people, got to play with his sister and extended family (including an ACD which his breeder also breeds). Also met a lovely lady who has Rough Collies. His sister wasn't as playful as Nova so he started getting a bit demanding and barking at her so I had to keep taking him away for walks as I didn't have the crate. They also had their son with them, Nova was very overstimulated by him playing on the ground and squeeling as kids do. I've been carrying Nova around to kids sports days so he gets used to it but obviously having him play that close was way too exciting! Then after learning how to stack he started getting tired and he has been asleep since Midday.

The show was good today :) Nova's sister has gotten so beautiful, gorgeous face on her. Nova was being perfectly good before and after we saw his breeder and was a ratbag while we saw them! But they are happy with him and I learnt the basics so we will see what happens in the future :)

I was under the impression that with all puppy vacs they needed to have the first yearly booster anyway

oh well there are always the Albury shows later in Nov. :) November is good timing for me too. I was upset that there wasn't any greys today, so at least I know there will be some in Albury :)

Yes Whippy I got to see 3 beautiful Salukis! Two black tri's and another one that I'm not sure what you would call Body looked what I would call sable but had beautiful face markings. Also 3 Afghans including the fuzziest pup I've ever seen! It looked like a walking rug Lots and lots of beautiful Whippets too, unfortunately no blacks ones to sticky beak at! Dotdashdot, I know I'm already the crazy dog person in my relationship. My partner has a working ACD who wasn't a good worker so got her for a carton of beer. He understands why I go for pedigreed dogs etc, but he still thinks I'm crazy . Rebanne I won't be going down because I still haven't got all my DogsNSW forms sent down, I only just got his pedigree so now I have to send it off to transfer ownership, and become a member!

My name pick if I ended up with a blue girl was Luna :) I like Jazz too!

Local dog show, not entered as he is 3 days too young. But we are going to meet his breeder and learn the ropes :) It is a 3 day one so I went down and checked out some of the rings I won't be looking at tomorrow. Loved looking at all the beautiful sighthounds

Whippy they aren't classed as fully grown/mature until 18 months or so. He will probably get to his full height 9mths-ish but they fill outwards then. Everywhere you look Aussies are classed as Medium sized dogs (I think they must go by height), but weight wise they tip into large breed, especially the boys. Taking him to the show tomorrow Casper is so lovely! Have fun keeping him that lovely white though!!

Nova has already come with me to uni :D met the lecturers and attended a very short (<half an hour) 'emergency' tutorial. Won't be coming to work with me as he may upset the sheepies and I somehow doubt he would be welcome at the bar I do some casual shifts at

I find this too funny.

I know of a German shepherd that herds their owners hobby farm animals. Tell her to go get the cows, 5 minutes later cows are at the back door

It does feel like that Whippy! He is still putting on 1kg a week so he definitely feels bigger and bigger!

Might update as well :) Nova got some goodies at the Petstock sale. New Kong Wubba for training. We are getting some great results using toys Kong Squeezy A duck that quacks and a new bed!

Oh look at his ear!! He is so gorgeous :D I love his eyes, looks like he's really good at applying eyeliner

I agree with Aliwake, also replied to your PM.

At this early stage take him out every time he wakes up, remember don't play with him. You will get to know the difference, but he will probably also learn that waking up for no reason means going outside in the cold with no fun.

That final photo is gorgeous!

Just curious but what treats contain bone?

Great work Lelu! Milo looks right at home in his crate :)

Oh goodness Envy is adorable! I'm sure Treble isn't broken.. maybe he is just a bit special Dory, youtube is still failing for me How has somebody not bottled puppy breath yet?!

Don't do what I did and call your dog Nova. One day in I realised I will NEVER be able to use the word No.

How did your night go Lelu? Thats what I did TSD :) but from the large amounts of threads recently it seems we are extremely lucky to have pups that do that!

My internet is gong too slow to watch them at the moment My facebook settings are high too, but you right click on your photo and click 'copy image address' Then you can paste it straight into the little insert image box, between 'insert link' and 'insert email'.
